Bought this cam yesterday, the only thing sucks is that you only can use the digital zoom while recording.
I’ve seen a few reviews complaining about the pop-up flash, and I don’t know if people realized this, but you CAN push down the flash with your finger, which disables the flash, even if flash is on on the camera.
Can it take 16:9 photo?
Can’t you stick the flash with some duck tape?
Which is better to shoot good photos This one or Panasonic tz7 ?

well the panasomic is a 100 or more dollars more so. . . and to me they have almost or the same features
im sold i was thinking abaout geting the fs200 but video looks bether on this and this is 10 bucks cheaper
Some are saying this can zoom while recording video. It can but not the optical zoom, only digital zoom. You can set the optical zoom before recording video but then that’s where it’s locked during shooting. You can’t pan back from there and you will lose focus during digital zoom.
how is the sound quality of video in club/concert situations???
nice camera , but the : Panasomic Lumix TZ7 /zs3 is jus a tad better, and i dare anyone to disagree
Thanks.
Nice thorough review. Thanks!
Thanks. I could zoom whilst recording, I am unsure how they achieved optical zoom. Maybe check out the DPReview Forums, it might be in there.
Thank you.
good review
@dwatcher5 Search for CHDK on google, it is fimrware you load onto your SD card that is read by your camera. It has a lot of subtle features and not-so-subtle eatures like optical zoom and AF while recording video.
Nice review Dave! can someone tell me how to unlock the optical zoom while recording video? Some says its possible & some says “no”. Even the people at Jessops are not quite sure about it. Thats the only reason putting me off to buy the camera. . . i love everything else about it. How to do the firmware update to fix it? Or shall I wait for another version?
have hack it with CDHK
How many picture will the 16gb card shown in this video store at the highest resolution?
No. It records 720p
it records at 1080p not 720
much more than its main competitor: Panasomic Lumix TZ7
If they have a ‘firmware’ update to stop the flash pop up, where would you get this update?
you CAN film with optical zoom and use af. . just watch the movie from my account if you want proof.
