Panasonic - Lumix DMC-FZ8 —

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 has so many features for so little price! It may take some getting accustomed to for the novice, as it is much more than just a simple point and shoot, but it's worth the "required" reading.

The lens is a Leica...German engineering at it's finest. It captures clear and detailed photos with no noise whatsoever.

This camera also offers so many settings from simple portrait to aerial photography mode! It has a wonderful zoom and also allows you to shoot in macro mode.

I truly love it and cannot stress how great this camera is.
