Excellent all-purpose camera!

Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is an excellent all-around camera with enough flexibility for the pro, but easy enough for the average person to use.
Review: The Panasonic DMC-FZ18k is an excellent camera. It's the first digital camera I've purchased that does nearly everything I want a camera to do. I love the 18x optical zoom, since I do a lot of sport photos for our school. That telephoto and the...

Panasonic FZ18 Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: I'm a constant second guesser and worrier. After buying this camera, I have no regrets. It's not the perfect camera, but no camera is.
Review: We d been itching for our biennial camera upgrade, the selling of the old on Ebay, and the purchase of the new. The Sony DSC-H1 hadn t been any more unsatisfactory than its Olympus predecessor, but the Sony H7 offers a 15x zoom and more megapixels...

The one bad item negates all the good.

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2008
Review: I regrettably sold my Konica-Minolta Z3 before I bought this camera; it did everything I wanted it to, but I wanted more zoom. Actually my only problem with this Panasonic DMC-FZ18 camera is that there is NO ZOOM IN MOVIE MODE!!!! That is unheard of...

Needs Improvement!

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: A good camera with amazing 28-504 range, but wait til they perfect some features.
Review: I own a Canon S2IS 5mp 12x zoom camera. We were heading for a 2 week trip to Alaska, so I looked into getting something with a longer zoom.

Purchasing the Panasonic FZ18 directly from the Panasonic sales dept. gave me 30 days to try it. I...

Love this camera

Date of Review:  Jan 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: This camera is the best one that I have come across thus far
Review: The new fad is to find the smallest camera that there is such as ones that can fit in your backpocket, however the quality of the picture is heavily comprimised. This camera is light, small but not too small and gives an amazing picture. I have...

Have had no problems with it

Date of Review:  Feb 7, 2008
Review: It takes a little time to get to know this camera, but once you do it is a lot of fun to use. It takes great vibrant pictures and the videos are nice too.

Great Camera, Amazing Zoom, Fairly Priced

Date of Review:  Feb 16, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for zoom with the ease of a point and shoot and the capabilities of a SLR then this is the camera for you.
Review: In getting this camera, I did a lot of research. What it basically came down to was the zooming capabilities. It was a decision between this, the FZ18 and the FZ50 (only 12 zoom but 2 more MPs). I chose the FZ18 and have had no regrets. I find that...

Warranty sucks

Date of Review:  Jul 15, 2008
Review: Lasted a month, then crapped out. Burned out the PCB card, and Panasonic won't honor any warranty on what they admit is a faulty part !

Not very interested in satisfying a loyal customer?

Super Camera

Date of Review:  Jan 19, 2008
Review: I am a prosumer photo person and have several digital and film cameras but I use this one the most.

I like action and nature shots and this one is perfect for my requirements. Its zoom with a telephoto extender is over 700 mm to 35 mm in...

The greatest camera

Date of Review:  Jul 31, 2008
Review: After much reading reviews and opinions on the Internet I stay with this camera. Why? First, analyzing photos of some, Panasonic was the best. It just has chromatic aberration and distortion, even at maximum zoom. And the imperfections of the image...
