Panasonic - Lumix DMC-FZ8 —

My husband and I did quite of bit of shopping and decided on this particular camera for the quality picture it took compared to it's competitors. We love the way it fits in the palm of our hands even though most feel that it is a bulkier camera than most. I take it everywhere being a stayhome mom and taking every action shot of the children I can capture.
