        Wouldn't trade it with my Canon SX30 IS or Olympus E 510.Fitted it with a x 2.2 telephoto and .45 wide angle conversions lens to bring it up to par with my other cameras.

        The Best from the rest. I have this digital camera from four years. Foto counter shows more than 209000 shots (more than 109000 my photos). Biiiig sensor (for compact) and Leica (no comments). Best manual handling. Nice looking movies. No matters that it's old camera.

        It´s a great camera for use in outdoors, not for travels. Excelent optics. Why this price? just cost $260!

        Panasonic DMC-FZ50 is a superb prosumer digital camera, large censored more than another fz series even with fz100.
        RAW support
        Flexible LCD screen. Video taken with wide resolution 848x480 actualy at 30 fps not 10 fps
        Manual telezooming ring and focusing ring
