Compared to the FX37, however, the one used for 150 - gets 200 euros, it has some drawbacks, such as a lack of submenu for the SW setting for white balancing.
Also, the SZ3 of formats. 3: 2 and 1: 1 is only one way to stop this, at full megapixel number Only the 4: 3 format leaves a real choice to here.
In 3MP format 4: 3 is a zoom to 22.5 possible!
Of course, no viewfinder available, the sensor in the size are in cameras of this size and price range usually about 1: 2.33 and not to compare the flash with an external flash guide number of 32.
Wonder you can not just expect in this size and price range.
Previously they were satisfied with 2 megapixels and today it must be 14-16MP.
But who makes for even prints in size of double DIN-A4 pages (approximately 30x40cm)?
Most of them are but prints in postcard format 10x15cm and for rich 6 megapixels from full. Thus we need the recording format 3 would be: 2 much more suitable as the preferred 4 here: 3!
By Pixel delusion it came about that on the small sensors increasingly pixels were distributed, but this resulted in more noise instead of a better quality.
But the customers have so willed, they always preferred cameras with more MP.

The display is difficult to see, as with all other cameras in this class in the sunshine. Here the display manufacturers would be required!
Another point, there is in principle to fault at Panasonic, which also a philosophy of environmental friendliness is diametrically opposed.
For each camera there is a different kind of battery. Once a millimeter longer, wider or a touch thinner or thicker. Once three poles, four poles once. Only Never a battery with a different camera fit.
If you buy a new camera one has to buy a new battery and new battery charger.
But here the "banana benders and straight cucumbers surveyor" the EU would sometimes required!
Why there are no uniform EU standards for camera batteries?
As a second camera for your pocket thoroughly recommended.
Measured in the segment under comparable cameras 4 stars.
Question to other buyers of the camera:
With my camera no charger was there.
Only a charging connector which allows you to load the battery into the camera.
So one can, however, load a second battery outside the camera, if you have the camera just in operation.
Saving measure of Panasonic?
