Average rating of 5/5 Great camera, 2010-07-26
Great camera but read the comments about manual settings for indoor low light use to get good results that are not grainy.

Average rating of 4/5 In-betweeny, 2010-07-26
Having lots of fun with it. Started out on auto everything and now using as much manual control when I can. Slowly getting to grips with it, quality of images is good, not staggering but good. The more you play with the settings the more you get from it

Average rating of 5/5 To get better than this, you have to get DSLR, 2010-07-28
I wanted better than average digital camera but not DSLR. Also the HD-movie recording was one of my requirements. Read many reviews, tests and comparisons of different "bridge" cameras. Ratings for DMC-FZ38 were exceptional. So, I bought the DMC-FZ38.

I'm very pleased so far (had it for a week and shot about 1000 pictures already). Automatic settings (intelligent-Auto or iA) are very good but so are the manual settings. Took the time to read fully the advanced options manual to understand all settings and possibilities. There is much to learn in photography for me :) I must also praise the Power O.I.S. that keeps the picture sharp even with 18x zoom.

I use the video recording (720p) instead of my old digital (HD) video camera. So far I have no complaints. The audio is very good and the HD picture is enough for me (1080p is too much and also it needs too much space for recording).

Only complaint is the high ISO noise on ISO800-1600, but this is due the small sensor (compared to DSLR). You can avoid this by setting the ISO limit in settings (only not for iA mode).

For the price this is the best-of-best.

Average rating of 3/5 Immediately returned, 2010-07-25
Superb Camera, but the moment it arrived I realised that the FZ 45 and FZ 100 has arrived. So why settle for X18 zoom and I can have the X 24 zoon next week?
will wait till I see the reviews on the new two Cameras and then decide what to do with my cash

Average rating of 5/5 Really pleased, great camera, 2010-07-26
Bought the camera for my husbands birthday and since then (2 months) he has continually used it and constantly comments on the quality of the pictures it gives. Great purchase.
