I used to own one before I upgraded to DSLR.
It's a superb camera in almost every way..It's fast to use, has full manual control if you want it, but plenty of program modes to help if you need them. |
thanks for the endorsement Graham! I would also recommend the FZ30, although its younger brother the FZ7 would give similar results and is cheaper. The FZ7 recently replaced the FZ5 so you might get a good price on the latter. All of these have 12x optical zoom which is much needed for wildlife shots.
