New Point-and-Shoot Camera Gets Editor' Choice Award

If you are not into single lens reflex camera like myself, but want a good point-and-shoot camera at a reasonable price, take a look at the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7. This camera was just awarded the Editor's Choice Award by PC Magazine.

It is a 6 megapixel camera, which is very sufficient for good size enlargements, a 12X optical zoom lens, built-in image stabilization, and a good sized 2.5" image screen on the back of the camera. If you compared the zoom to a 35 mm camera, the lens is equivalent to a 36 mm to 432 mm lens. That is huge.

If you want to read their review, mouse on over to the PC Magazine website. It sells on the web for about $325.
