Panasonic Lumix DMC FH-8 User Reviews

Wow
“This camera is amazing for its size. I am a independent filmmaker and a dedicated panasonic customer. I purchased this camera for the sole purpose of doing behind the scenes photos and videos. It takes super clear images similar to that of my panasonic gh2 and the video is decent enough for the purpose for which it was purchased.” – By KingofQueenz817

Wonderful Camera
“I never liked cameras until I bought this little gem from Amazon.. I love this camera.. I felt comfortable with it from the word go.. I am enjoying this camera immensely. Great Product at an amazingly low price.” – By Daniel Friedlander

Good camera for the price
“Bought this camera just before our family vacation. Once it arrived, didn’t have time to read manual and was still able to take great pictures. Small size works great for carrying and is very user-friendly. Have always been happy with Panasonic products and this one does not dissapoint.” – By Electrical Engineer

Value for money
“I used it for a bit during my visit and was impressed by the HD video, which btw, you can zoom in/out only before you start recording. But this seems to be the standard in all the point-n-shoot cameras in this range. The photo quality indoors was good but not mind blowing.” – By Aniket
Rating: ★★★★☆

I like it MUCH better than the Canon Powershot
“panoramic setting – apparently this is a feature in most other cameras, but not with the Canon – but I really like the automatic panorama photo feature! great for beach and scenery pics.” – By L. Doong

Wonderful Compact Digital Camera
“I love all of the modes (especially the sunset mode, the food mode, the baby1 and baby 2 modes), and the video is pretty great quality and easy to use. I also love that the on/off button and the switch for switching between shooting mode and viewing photos already taken are so easy to operate.” – By Melanie Faith

I love this camera
“I was looking for an inexpensive small camera and the reviews on this are great. I love it! It’s the perfect size and even has tilt shift focus.. Amazon also has a $6 Lumix FH series case which comes in handy. So far I am really happy with the camera and the picture quality.” – By Lisa C Ray

Big features, small package
“trademark Panasonic picture quality, with good exposure and balanced colors (see my customer pics), amazingly small! I can’t believe all of this is in such a tiny device. intelligent auto mode which will take great pictures for those who don’t know what I’m talking about in this review, reasonably priced” – By Tyler Yasaka

Great camera for the price
“I bought this camera for my 18 year old son. The picture and colors are great. This is a very user freindly camera. In fact after playing with it for a few hours, I decided to keep the camera, and give my son the much more expensive Canon I bought not long ago. Very sold camera.” – By RoadKing
