It's a perfect camera for anyone to use because it has been enginheered to deliver high performance with simplest use. Just set the mode dial to the heart symbol, aim and press the shutter button. The camera handles the complicated settings automatically. And with a simplified settings menu, there's no stress, no confusion and no worries. You can even compensate for backlighting by just pressing the cursor key. You'll find it easy to take clear, beautiful shots ? even if you know very little about digital cameras. Press the FUNCTION button and you can easily change settings such as auto focus, lighting metering, white balance, ISO sensitivity, image size, image quality and so on. There's no need to switch to the menu screen. The DMC-LS70 runs on two AA batteries, which you can buy just about anywhere. If your battery power is running low, just pick up a fresh supply. Or choose optional rechargeable AA batteries (and charger) that you can use over and over for additional value.

Great little camera!2008-07-24
When I was in the market for a digital camera, I researched and researched and researched. I wanted something fairly inexpensive that also took great pictures--a hard find in today's market. After reading tons of reviews on Amazon (and elsewhere), I decided that the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS70/LS75 was my best bet. I have not been disappointed. The camera takes GREAT pictures (better than my brother's brand new 8 megapixel Sony Cybershot), the optical image stabilization is amazing, and I love the fact that it runs on AA batteries (no more having to keep up with a charger)! The colors are beautiful and the pictures are crisp and clear. This is a definite winner if you're looking for an inexpensive camera that will still take great shots. The only con: no audio in video mode. I never took videos on my old camera, so this doesn't bother me. I'd much rather have a camera that costs $100 less and has great picture quality.

You can't go wrong with this camera. I highly recommend it!
Great Camera for The Price2008-06-13
Bought it for my girlfriend who was still using a film camera. Took fantastic pictures on our trip, easy to use. Uses AA rechargeable batteries which is a big plus. The only thing it does not have is a viewfinder, which can effect shots in very bright sunlight. However, it was worth sacrificing the viewfinder in order to have the picture stabilization feature. It never took a bad photo! I recommended it to my travel agent, and she also bought one!
Great little camera but more complex than I expected2008-06-04
I wanted a small point and shoot camera for taking pictures while we are out and about. Tired of lugging a big heavy camera. I also wanted to get a good price. This camera is great for the price and small and light enough. The only problem is that it's not an easy point and shoot. You have to put it on the right setting to get a decent picture and change the settings frequently based on what your photographing. Settings are not as simple as setting the dial either. But once you get a hang of it, it's not so bad. It downloads pics easily and has a decent battery life. It wasn't the perfect camera for me but it is a very good camera.

Indistructable2008-04-25
My husband is a newspaper reporter and actually wrote a column about our little Lumix.
A month or so ago we had a blizzard here in Ohio so we walked around the town to take photos. My camera fell out of my pocket somewhere along the road and we couldn't find it. The snow eventually started melting away and 2 weeks later our camera was found in a melting snow drift downtown. We took the batteries out and let it dry out for 3 days. We put the batteries back in, flipped on the power switch and it started right up. It is literally in perfect condition. I would recommend this camera to anyone.
Before this camera I had 2 Sonys and I don't think either of them would've withstood 2 weeks in the elements.

Printer Buying Guide
What kind of printer is best for me? Choosing the right printer can be a daunting task. There are several different types of printing technology to choose from, each suited for different needs. Printers come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny travel companions to workgroup workhorses; some are geared toward photographers, others are for multitaskers. And the many specifications for resolution and speed can be misleading. As a rule of thumb, inkjet printers are a must for long-lasting photos, while laser printers are best to produce speedy text documents. User types: Home user | Budding novelist | Digital photographer | Entrepreneur | Corporate cog | Frequent flier Home user  The home user demands a lot from a printer. The device must tackle everything from a book report to a newsletter to the occasional snapshot--all without breaking the budget. This is why for most home users, the best choice is a versatile and affordable printer, such as a small-office/home-office color ...
Why You Should Use A Mini DV Camcorder
Introduction The mini DV camcorder has many advantages to offer its users. If you enjoy your digital video camera you will also enjoy this. The mini DV camcorder is easier to take with you than the regular sized cameras such as the hi definition camcorder, or the hi-Res camcorder. The size of this camcorder is one of its big advantages. The features this camcorder can offer are also great. Some cameras offer more features than others, so make sure that the camera has the features you want. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Generally when design, performance and technological improvements are made on electronic products there is a reduction in size as well to make them more compact. For example the early day radios were built in large cabinets and required radio vacuum tubes. Eventually, transistor radios were constructed and were more portable. Today, a radio can be as small as a wristwatch. Camcorders have also evolved in tec ...
