Wind cut function
Minimizes the distracting sound you hear from wind blowing into the mic.

 I liked this thing pretty good Jul 10, 2010
I liked this thing pretty good. Worth the money. Mainly got it for the video capabilities which I had heard was better than canon. I like to think of myself as a skilled photographer, but I'm really not. That being said, auto works really well on this camera.

 love my Lumix, and I had great customer service Jul 09, 2010
I got my Lumix when my Canon died just before Christmas. I have loved using this camera, great HD video, quality of shots has been amazing, the macro and speed shots are fabulous. I fianly got used to the menu based system for finding what you want.
I had the bizare crack in my screen that renedered the screen completly useles on July 4th. I called Panasonic customer service on Tuesday the 6th, they e-mailed me a way bill. I mailed out the camera and it came back on Friday the 9th with the screen fixed.
I will test all the functions this week, but I must say I had great customer service, very friendly and very helpful.
I have recommeded both my sister and my Dad to get the new model with GPS and so far they are also very pleased with size, wieght, ease of use, quality of photo and video.
True test coming in one month when we go to disneyland...

 Great Camera for 3 Months & Then KAPPPPPUT! Jul 02, 2010
Not sure what happened, but one day, after 3 months of fabulous use, the screen went white and blurry, as did my pictures and I was never to get it back to it's original condition. Thankfully, Amazon has a wonderful refund policy, and I was able to return it 3 months later and get a credit. Never will I buy a Panasonic again. I will stick with Canon or Kodak like the good ol' days. BUYER BEWARE!

Great little camera! Jul 02, 2010
I spent a lot of time looking for the perfect camera -- one that takes great pictures & video, has a nice long zoom, is easy to use and portable. I had 2 digital cameras already, one being a Kodak 643 (reliable, but just okay) and the other a Nikon Coolpix S550 that was a big disappointment. Both cameras take pretty lousy pictures and video in low light, as does my Canon camcorder. This time I read lots and lots of reviews. I read reviews on camera websites, and I read consumer reviews on Amazon and other websites. The Panasonic Lumix ZS3 was, hands down, the winner for the type of camera I was searching for. I went to camera stores, too, and was told by one salesman at a major electronics store that, although his store didn't sell this particular camera, it was much better than the Canon that they did sell. He then reached into his pocket and produced his own camera...a ZS3! That was the deciding factor for me, so I watched the prices on Amazon and ordered my new camera in February when the price fell to $229. I certainly have not regretted my purchase. This camera is wonderful. The pictures are stunning, it works well in the automatic mode, and the HD videos are great, too. We have played videos on our 46" hi-def Sony TV, and they are gorgeous. My camcorder only gets used now on rare occasions when I need someone to take video at the same time I am taking pictures. Despite the fact that it has a 12x zoom, the camera is small enough to pop into my purse, or even in a jacket or pants pocket. The wide angle lens is great for group or outdoor shots. I would recommend buying at least one extra battery, as the supplied battery doesn't last terribly long. If you are looking for a camera that is easy to use and takes amazing photos and video, buy the ZS3. I can't wait to photograph fireworks on the 4th of July!

Above and Beyond Jun 30, 2010
This point-and-shoot camera is excellent. I couldn't believe how many features it has. Because if them, I'm able to take better pictures in low light, sunsets and landscapes.
My only wish is that the "Sports" feature was better. It's a hit and miss as far as blurry pictures go, but it's great for a point-and-shoot. I know there are many, many factors that affect it, but I recommend using the HD movie recorder instead of the pictures.
That leads me to my next topic. The HD recorder is sweet! It's so clear. Unfortunately, the software to support AVCHD hasn't hit most computers. I had to download "Free HD Converter" and change the file type of the movie before I was able to save them on my computer.
This camera was a huge upgrade for me. I carry it with me almost everywhere I go. It has an impressive zoom without having to sacrifice the "flat" surface for when the camera is off.
