'Panasonic's Lumix DMC-FZ35 is quite simply one of the best fixed-lens cameras out there for both stills and HD video. '
'The DSC-H9 achieves a good balance between the hardware controls and the software menus; providing complete functionality without overly complicating or cluttering up either.'

'The handling of the H9 is very pleasant; you can grip it much like an SLR, left hand cradling the lens'
'The DMC-FZ7 was one of my favorite ultra zoom cameras of 2006.'
'Venus Engine III in the FZ8 allows which maintains high resolution.'
'Surprisingly compact but still big enough to shoot comfortably with two hands, the FZ8 has all the controls on the right hand side, so one-handed operation is possible if needed'
