This $400 camera, like almost ever camera sold by Panasonic has image stabilization, but no optical view finder. Other important specs:
3.6X zoom lens, wide angle (28mm equiv), with quite blurry corners at wide angle
CIPA: 320 shots per charge.
size: 3.8 x 2.1 x 1.0 in. (0.2in longer than the SD850).
It looks like a reasonably nice camera, with a reasonable CIPA given it doesn't have a optical viewfinder. But like all the other wide angle cameras I've looked at, it has relatively poor optics at wide angle. Image stabilization is nice, but there are lots of other cameras which have this feature. Odly the camera doesn't support USB 2.0, so downloading all those 12 megapixel images is going to take forever.
DCRP review- mildly positive; they complain of high ISO noise, and the fact that it's kind of expense. Instead they suggest looking at a lower megapixel camera from Panasonic, such as the DMC-FX33 or DMC-FX55 instead.
