Reviews for Panasonic Lumix DMC-LC50 Compact Camera - Silver

Panasonic LC 50

Strengths: AA batteries, and battery life. Lens, clarity.

Weakness: software, zoom.

I found the pictures to be amazing clarity for a three mega-pixel camera. Great Licia lens. I found that this camera outperformed a lot of other pocket point-and-shoot cameras.

I thought the software provided no benefit. I also thought the zoom could be a little faster. However, I am used to my Canon S2's quick zoom.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LC50 Compact Camera - Silver

Strengths: lens quality, optical zoom, macro setting, replaceable AA batteries, standard SD card storage

The included software is not that great. We use an SD-card holder and freeware to download, sort, and store our pictures on the computer.
