A review of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 digital camera is available at DCRP.

Here is part of the review:
“The FZ7 is loaded with features. You’ll get full manual controls, plus many automatic modes for the beginner […] The FZ7 starts up quickly, focuses very quickly, and takes pictures without noticeable lag. […] Photo quality was very good for the most part, with noise being the FZ7’s weak spot. […]

[…] The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 is a very likable ultra zoom camera, and one that I can recommend. It combines high quality optics, image stabilization, manual features, and performance, without breaking the bank. The noise issue might only be a problem for those who will be shooting at high ISOs or making very large prints. For everyone else, this is a very capable ultra zoom that should be on your shopping list.”
