seems like not much improve from FZ5 to FZ7 on Noise issue

but FZ7 no macro button but got macro mode which quite "mafan":p

now what i saw the review is
FZ7 have some MP increase ,additional Shooting modes ,Manual focus (via joystick), better movie mode, better bettery life(320 over 300) ,bigger LCD but lower pixel (2.5 over 1.8 , FZ7 = 114,000 pixels)

Anyway now FZ5 is RM1499 include 256MB
if FZ7 is really RM1500++ ,it will be a nice and good price.

Canon S3IS(coming up) , now is S2IS
Sony DSC-H1(05 model),
Panasonic FZ7(Coming up), now is FZ5
Konica Minolta Z6,
Fuji S5600 (05 model) ,
Kodak Z612(Coming up)
Olympus SP500-UZ (05 model)

p.s :number beside is my rating ,maximum 4

Dnt talk abt the coming soon de ,
I will say
Canon S2IS is the one who produce sharp and nice photoand good image stabilizer but noise problem quite heavy .
Overall performance(speed ,continuos shot and etc) 4
Photo quality 4
Noise ,Flash ,red eye issue 2
Image stabilizer 3.8
Handgrip and design 4
(RM1980 camera body ,512MB SD ,No Battery)

Sony H1 is the one who produce soft and nice photo and not bad image stabilizer and noise problem still occur but not heavy as FZ5 or S2
Overall performance(speed ,continuos shot and etc) 3
Photo quality 3.5
Noise issue 3
Image stabilizer 3
Handgrip and design 4
(RM1800 Camera body ,512MS Pro,2 AA recharge battery)
Sony have no camera bag provided

FZ5 good things is burst mode which fast and small and light body ,but no manual focus and cant add lens.
Overall performance(speed ,continuos shot and etc) 3.5
Photo quality 3
Noise issue 2
Image stabilizer 4
Handgrip and design 3.5
(RM1600 Camera body ,512MB SD, Lion battery)

Konica Minolta Z6 ,I just do a light test on this ,but I feel tht the camera performance little bit slow and AS is not as good as other image stabilizer
Overall performance(speed ,continuos shot and etc) 3
Photo quality 3.5
Noise issue 1.5
Image stabilizer 3.5
Handgrip and design 3.5
(RM1750 Camera body ,512MB SD ,no battery)

Fuji S5600 is quite nice with the ISO ,if I adjust ISO higher actually I can take the photo very nicely when the sunlight is strong ,so when the sunlight is enough no worry on this camera ,u just need to adjust shutter speed and ISO and when enviroment is a bit dark ,without anti-shake is quite troublesome ,but u still can count on the high ISO
Overall performance(speed ,continuos shot and etc) 2.5
Photo quality 3
Noise issue 4
No image stabilizer but depend on high ISO and Super CCD 2.5
Handgrip and design 3
(RM1500 Camera body ,512MB xD ,no battery)

Olympus SP-500UZ ,it really is a slow camera ,totally slow,and the LCD look a bit weird to me ,no anti-shake somemore but photo quality not bad lah and noise quite well.
Overall performance(speed ,continuos shot and etc) 2.5
Photo quality 3.5
Noise issue 3.5
No image stabilizer but can count os ISO 2.0
Handgrip and design 3
(RM1500 Camera body ,512MB xD ,no battery)


This is just my personnal test ,no any offense ,but welcome any comment.

cool, thanks for ur advise, looks like i gonna switch to FZ7, S3 or FZ30

Personally if FZ7 ISO200 have good image in ISO200 and average noise in ISO400 is ok already but too bad .....

Conclusion get from dpreview.com is
Higher than average Noise at ISO 80
Strong color noise at ISO 200+

and FZ5
More noise at ISO 80 than we'd like to see
Noise reduction at ISO 400 in low light obliterates too much fine detail ('watercolor' look)

aiyoh, dnt knw why lah ,seems like 0 improvement in ISO issue.

the obvious improment from FZ5 to FZ7
is 6mp over 5mp
bigger LCD
manual focus
Better movie mode(640 x 480)

anyway ,not a major upgrade but minor only.

so, FZ7 nothing special lar , just bigger screen ... ai yo ~!

wah nice price ....
sad coz no money hhahah

sure lar ... `! can get but no $$ also ~! god ~~

I must say the FZ7 is a good buy if you are just starting out!

FZ5 users.. maybe you all have to sit it out for the time being.. but FZ5 can still produce great images!

Seems like Digital Cameras are slowly going down in prices every year...

ya, all suck ppl money ~! just like NokiX hp, !!! boring DC ~! nothing special ~!

i saw on yesterday newspaper panasonic malaysia already launch FZ-7 and other model....RM1799 from what i heard
