Panasonic's been a player in the digicam market for the last couple of years, but until now, we've not managed to get hands on any of their cameras to test. As it happens, the Panasonic FZ15 was a great unit to start with, as I found it to offer excellent performance and value in a long-zoom digicam design. The Panasonic FZ15 combines a 12x optically stabilized zoom lens with a 4 megapixel sensor and a host of features designed to entice novice and enthusiast alike. True to its Leica heritage, the Panasonic FZ15's long zoom shows very good optical quality, and the rest of the camera happily measures up as well. Read on for all the details, but if you're in the market for a long-zoom digicam with optical image stabilization, the Panasonic FZ15 looks like a good bet.
