Customer Review: So far so good...
Summary: 5 Stars

I just received my Lumix DMC-FH20 and I'm so excited!

Shipping was 6 calendar days. Tracking was easy, and the entire order was complete.

Basic instructions are in a printed manual, detailed camera workings are on an enclosed CD.

Battery charged in under 2 hours.

Initial indoor trial shots were great. Even ones that I tried to mess up (low light, too close) worked great. It was fun to watch an image look shakey on the screen, but capture crystal clear!

I was hoping for a faster save time so I could click-click-click. Even with the class 6 SD card, it took a second before I could take the next. Literally one second!

On playback for a 15 second movie recording, I couln't hear much sound. But until I transfer the file to a computer I won't rate that as a negative.

While the settings seem really self explanitory, there were some options I couldn't immediately figure out. (How to delete multiple images, what some symbols meant.)

Once I figure out all the options/settings I'll report back.

Description of Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH20 14.1 MP Digital Camera with 8x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7-Inch LCD (Violet)

28mm Wide-angle LensThe 28mm wide-angle lens* lets you easily capture large groups of people indoors or expansive architectural structures and scenes with dynamic width and rich perspective, even from short distances.* Converted to standard 35mm camera equivalent, at the maximum wide position. Powerful 8x Optical ZoomThe DMC-FH20 sports a powerful 8x optical zoom lens (35mm camera equivalent: 28-224mm). This gives you highly natural expressions from people and animals that you can't get close to. And its slim, compact, pocket-sized body can easily go wherever you do for both everyday snapshots and traveling. iA (Intelligent Auto) ModeWhen you don't know which mode will give you the best shooting results, or when a sudden photo opportunity pops up and you don't have time to make any settings, simply choose iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode by simply pressing the dedicated button and let the camera do it all for you. You just choose iA Mode, aim at your subject, and shoot. 4 detection and correction functions are simultaneously activated to optimize the settings, so you get stunning photos every time. HD Movie Recording (1,280 x 720 pixels at 30 fps in Motion JPEG Format)The DMC-FH20) can record motion images in high-definition (1,280 x 720 pixels at 30 fps in Motion JPEG format). The pixel mixed readout method enables bright motion-image recording even in low-light settings. The DMC-FH20 can also record full-size motion images in WVGA (848 x 480 pixels at 30 fps) or standard motion images in VGA (640 x 480 pixels at 30 fps) and QVGA (320 x 240 pixels at 30 fps). Extended Battery LifeThe energy-saving Venus Engine IV image-processing engine and the efficient, rechargeable lithium-ion battery which has been slimmed down to fit into thinner camera bodies work together to extend the shooting time of the DMC-FH20. This lets users take approx. 300 shots on a single battery charge*.* Based on the CIPA standard. Dimensions: 3.94 x 2.22 x 1.09
