Questions for you...

[wenx]

Hi, I am considering getting a FZ10 but I need to understand this amazing cam better... Here are some Questions:

1) What is the shot to shot time when flash is used?

2) What SD card are you using and what is your shot to shot time, write
time, etc?

3) Is the auto-focus reliable?

4) Does it produce really sharp pictures? Can send some pictures here
because have yet to see some works from the snappers here.

If qn 1-3 are your major concerns, go get a DSLR and don't waste your time. Get a camera less that 1k means you got to live with some of its limitations and not expect it to perform wonders.

As for Qn4, you can find some samples here if you look hard enough.

Hi wenx!

I don't know why are some members here so unhelpful...just see my post http://forums.clubsnap.org/showthread.php?t=80562
If they are unwilling to help, why even post somethings that can even hurt peoples feelings.

Anyway, the answer to your question 1 can be found at the links below:

For Q2: The FZ10 has ‘mega burst’ modes. These allow capture of up to five high quality, full resolution frames at either 2fps or 4fps.

Q3: Read from many reviews that focus is good at good lighting but poor in low light.

You can find many good sample here:

Thanks for your replies, if I can afford a DSLR, I will certainly get one and that is precisely the reason why I chose FZ10 ... because I can only afford FZ10 . And of course, I never expect a FZ10 to perform like D70 or 10D etc... if it can, think lots of people will jump ship...Haha.

Yo! I read your post and I shan't comment on that as I am afraid that it will turn out to be another heated discussion. Ha Ha... Thanks for your help. Actually, I have read most of the reviews online but just feel that these reviews will somehow tone down a camera demerits, that is why I decided to turn to actual FZ10 users here. Nonetheless, thanks and PEACE.

Apologies if I sound too harsh above. Just want to let you know prosumer cams are generally slow and all are abt the same. So dun expect too much in those areas.

No...no prob at all. I wasn't offended anyway.
