Good The external flash shoe is a useful feature and the swing-out rotating LCD screen is excellent. And that is just as well.
Bad The electronic viewfinder is pretty dire. Fortunately the LCD viewer is manoeuvrable and of high enough resolution and brightness to serve as a viewfinder most of the time. It doesn’t have as many swings and tilts as the Canon S3IS but it is still u...
Bottom line The Panasonic is a difficult camera to rate. The lens and image processing are so good and the image stabilisation so effective that you want to love it. And for static images it is hard to beat. For a tourist this could be the ideal camera. But for ta...
