Good question Mark!...a prosumer digi-cam is easier to use versus a DSLR imho :)...the Panasonic is a great cam...I fought with the same questions before taking a step towards a DSLR which I am still learning...but I'm no shutterbug and Macro photography is tough enough :P All of my wrist shots and many of my macros are still done with my fuji S9000 prosumer/fixed lens....but as I learn the DSLR and what settings work best I can say the overall results are much better imho....You have to go with what you feel comfortable with and especially what You will get the best use out of as an all around cam....choosing a cam with Macro mode is essential for Watch Pics(in any price range tny)hand6.gif I tend to use my Fuji more as an all around cam for the ease of use ...plus it is a 9.1 mega pixel 12x zoom that has a ton of features for all conditionshand6.gif Owning a DSLR doesn't automatically make your pics better....the person behind the lens still has to have knowledge, experience,and patience !...where using a prosumer digi-cam can give great results immediately in a point and shoot in which case I would grab the Panasonic for a great price that has all the features you may be looking for(image stabilization is also important on a cam)Camera_photos.gijmho
Man, that's tough. About 5 blls with lens and the Panasonic is 3 bills. am I even gonna be able to use an SLR after using my point and click Canon or am I over extendiing myself? Is the 2 bills worth the DSLR vs SLR like? Am i asking too many questions?
I am confused...
