Digital Trends – (Scored 4 stars of 5): “Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 goes to the top of the list for sub-$400 digicams. With its 12x wide-angle zoom, compact size and very good high-def video, the camera comes close to our two-in-one fantasy device.

PhotoReview.au – (Scored 4 stars of 5): “With flash, noise levels were much lower with high sensitivity settings – although the highest ISO setting was restricted to 1600. It was possible to make acceptable A5 sized prints from shots taken at ISO 1600. The flash required an ISO setting of 200 before it could illuminate an average-sized room. However, exposures were even from ISO 400 to ISO 1600.”

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 available in blue, silver, black and red.
