    Strength:

    great Leica lens very crisp images image colors are very realistic and vibrant excellent optical (3x) zoom easy to use options comprehensive functions takes SD memory

    Weakness:

    chassis is shoddily constructed seams of camera body dont fit perfectly lens is off-centered in camera body, not aligned properly poor digital zoom no aperature/shutter priority access doors seem flimsy zoom control not in best spot

    I really like this digital camera - my first. Compact enough to carry around everywhere and great point-and-shoot photographs in lots of different conditions.

    Strength:

    great lens, small size, accepts fast SanDisk Ultra II SD-Card (tested with 512MB), fast reaction of shutter button (perfect for snapshots), macro mode, shutter max. 8 sec., manual ISO settind allowed, good playback mode with 4x zoom to check the result on built-in lcd monitor, video (quicktime) with sound.

    Weakness:

    On-Off-Button feels not very stable (it feels fragile after approx. 10000 pictures taken now), battery-level with rechargable batteries is shown incorrect sometimes, no manual shutter speed/aperture setting, digital zoom is disgusting (optical zoom is ok), 6 instead of 3 mega pixel was ideal, :-) no bluetooth available

    Beside my Nikon F5 and F80, I always had an analog shapshot-camera Olympus µ[mju:] in my pocket for years. When it finally broke, I decided to buy a digital camera instead. After a year of use, I never did reget to choose the Panasonic Lumix camera. The camera was built in cooperation with Leica (the lens comes from Leica). It is also available as Leica D-Lux (for EUR 900 vs. EUR 270 for the LC-33) with a different body design.
