Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Panasonic introduces the first digital cameras to combine 12x optical zoom with an optical image stabilizer. Integrating unrivalled optical and digital technologies with ergonomic design, Panasonic's three new 12x zoom Lumix, models achieve a level of performance never before seen in digital cameras. New models DMC-FZ3 (3-Megapixel), DMC-FZ15 (4-Megapixel) and DMC-FZ20 (5-Megapixel) feature a versatile, high-performance Leica DC VARIO-ELMARIT lens with powerful 12x zoom (equivalent to a 35 x 420mm zoom lens on a conventional 35mm film camera) and F2.8 brightness throughout the entire zoom range. With their extraordinary telephoto features and precision image stabilizers, these cameras are engineered to capture every detail of distant or quick-moving subjects with superb brightness and clarity.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excelent Camera, 7 Dec 2004
    The Panasonic Lumix FZ3 is a great camera at a great price.
    The Leica lens keeps an impressive f/2.8 all over the zoom range, the Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) works very well, but don't expect miracles.
    I like the 12x optical zoom and the image quality it produces. Even with low light and the flash turned off the images are very good.
    The camera is very light, compact and lightweight.
    The camera has manual and automatic modes for all the family.
    I highly recommend this camera. Buy without any doubt.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ3, 16 Oct 2004
    By A Customer
    Its only a 3.1 megapixel camera, and I found quite high noise leves at 400 ISO setting, but 80 to 100 ISO ok.
    I find the FZ3 is great for hand held use using the fantastic Image Stabilisation feature (IS), set to mode 2 gives camera shake free images using the 12x optical zoom (35EQ 420mm). The lens is also constant aperture zoom at f2.8, Impressive! Add to that no long time delays on start-up or shutter release and you have a versatile camera. Works best in daylight. White ballance ok but in flourescent light I had to set manually.
    Menu system very logical and easy to use, hardly need to read the manual. I like the fact it is supplied with a good lens hood.
    on camera flash good but can't connect external unit. For the novice it has a simple mode, I thought the Sceen mode options well chosen and easy to use. Its a choice that offers good value plus the advantage of excellent IS. buy one!
