My buddy has a Minolta DImage 3 mega with a 10x optical that is very compact. I use it all the time and alot of the pics I have posted over the last 3 years have been taken with it.

You pretty much can't go wrong with any of the panasonic FZ's.  They are pretty good for what they do and compared to my 35mm a pleasure to pack around.  I have had my eye out for a more compact one with a better zoom.  I need to get one I can just put in my pocket for hunting.  People harass me when I don't get field photos, but honestly where I go, I don't want an extra ounce of weight or inch of bulk.  I took my camera last year and it made it.  I took it shed hunting this weekend and put it into my pack when it started raining.  I ende dup scratching the heck out of my view finder. :'(

I will take another look at the Panasonics.

5 years ago I bought my first digital camera and it was a Panasonic. The thing is as large as a camcorder and a tank to lug around. It records on a floppy disc (LS120) that has over 100 megs of storage. Compare that to the 1.44 floppy and I still wonder why they didn't take off. Anyway, I really like that camera,but technology has surpassed it.

The FZ10 was one of te first really good digital cameras with th original 12x optical and 5 megapixel format.  It was then a rush in the indusry to get more megapixels, which has its own downfall.  the FZ20 came out and then in a blink the 30.  the 20 and 30 are appreciatably louder.  Panasonic listened to its customers and the FZ50 came out and it is much better.  I don't know about any others after that.  they are all affordable and take great pictures.

Wow!!  I'd have to say that would make my day too.  Great picture!
