Specs:
Full body, 12.1 megapixels, 18 x, 2.7 in LCD display
The Good:
Useful 27mm wide-angle zoom; excellent image stabilization; full selection of manual and automatic exposure controls; very good 720p movie capture with operational zoom and manual controls; relatively fast.
The Bad:
Noise and compression artifacts in JPEG photos; no hotshoe.
The Bottom Line:
A better-than-average megazoom choice, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35 delivers standout video capabilities and an excellent manual feature set. Still, it suffers from a lot of the same drawbacks as its competitors, including weak photo quality.
