Folks, not to wax commercial, but, having been a photographer since
age 6, if you want a small, easy to use camera with a great 6:1 zoom
Leica lens and image stabilization, you can't beat the Panasonic Lumix
LZ5K on sale for $180 at Office Depot. I just called and they have 3
left in stock.
Online the best price now is $169. The 28th St. Office Depot took
responsibiliity last October when a laptop I ordered there arrived
with the bar code cut out of the box -which I needed to collect on a
rebate. (I'm sorry I ever called them "Office Despot.") Buying here,
you'll pay about as much sales tax as shipping would be.
You can see stunning iridescent cloud photos I took with the slightly
older model LZ4, which lacks the movie sound the Lz5 has, at

Here are the specs for the Lz5 and the Lz2, which I also own. The LZ2
"full review" has the all-important lens test -the lens is the
same for all cameras in this series:

(If they sell out the 3 in stock, you'll still get the sale price,
through Sunday i think)
