I have the zs3, in iauto mode, you can only take 19x9 pkotos at 2megapixels (wtf!) Has this changed for the better in the zs15?

In IA mode, the ZS-15 takes 12MB pics (4:3 aspect), 10.5M (3:2), 9M (16:9). etc. So, if you are referring to 16:9 aspect (not 19 x 9, perhaps a typo?), the answer is 9M in Intelligent Auto Mode.

It has VERY limited internal memory. Buy a card. I am able to download to Picasa3

Sure, the TZ1 does it, but it won't be around forever and has, in most ways, been surpassed by the TZ3.So I guess what I meant by my first post was: Do any OTHERS, besides the TZ1, allow zooming while doing video?

You can do only A4 size paper. It doesn't allow bigger size paper. Also if I try to do small pictures it doesn't recognize them. I have to place them on a blank A4 and then scan them.

Yes, I installed these on that same set up. Picture quality diminished greatly. I ended up upgrading to the Zosi camera and was very pleased.

Hi Glenn,Wow, thanks for doing that research for me. You found out in minutes what has taken me weeks!!! Well I guess with what you found I will have to narrow it down to either the T90 or the ZS3. I was reading other blogs that said that Panasonic is going to introduce a ZS7 and that might result in a price decrease on the ZS3 which is always good. I've talk to some people who are big fans of Sony cameras but, when you look at the table for shutter lags, they really are not doing so well. I will take your advice and go give them a "test drive" at Best Buy before I finally buy one. Thanks again for your time, that was very nice of you ;)Isabel Hi Glenn,Wow, thanks for doing that research for me. You found out in minutes what has taken me weeks!!!

The ZS7 doesn't have 1080i, and image quality most likely suffers from the drawbacks of its counterparts. Panasonic not having 1080i makes little sense nowadays, and CMOS sensor technology might help considerably.

I'm habing the same issue. Have tried seeting camera to MXP and FXP and am getting lots of grainyness and aritfacts. Anyone have and solve this issue?

Thank You so much for taking the time to post! In fact, I ended up with the Lumix ZS3 and have found it to be pretty quick. There is also a Burst mode which is quite good and works well as long as you have plenty of light, daylight is best. Now, I'll have to explore the 4/3 cameras too - just for fun.

Hi Cliff, Hard to say. If you scan the image at 3200 DPI and blow it up to 24 x 36 you will lose allot of resolutions. The People you should ask is Plustek at (714) 670-7713. They will be open on Monday after 9 AM PST.

Thanks for the extra information, interesting about the rectangular pixels. This seems like a much bigger project than I thought it was going to be. I tried a lot of resolutions and found one that appears to leave only one column of pixels on the right side unused. It's 430x222. Funny how a single digit can make a significant difference.

I just bought the V3. It does have great resolution. I transferred all of my older 2D pics to a card for it as well as my 3D pics. I have no problems with it at all. Resolution is great. Hope this helps.

Thanks, John. Now if only I had pockets big enough both to purchase the S5 IS *and* to hold its bulk. :-/ So I guess I'm still wondering: Just what the heck IS the reason none of the pocket-size digi-cams seem to allow zooming in video mode? Too expensive? Too noisy? Simply not possible due to some technical constraint? If anyone has a good answer, I'd still like to know. Thanks for the good discussion so far...

I wish I knew why they removed it, because with memory cards as big and cheap as they are it makes no sense. I think the superfine option was the best setting. The other settings do way too much compression in my opinion. The images look blurry even if you only zoom in a little. I am skipping this generation of Canons unless they renable this setting.

Marsha:I am working with Windows 7, 64 bits and works fine; however, I am a photography fan, and I got a strong frustration with the quality of the converted files. It is something like 5 Mega pixels.For that reason, I bought a 20MP converter. I will receive it next week. If you have any question, please do not hesitate in contacting me, I'll be glad to share my experiences.Best regards, Ricardo

return it and buy an Imagebox 9MP. It's more expensive, but well worth it. Simple to use and download pictures to computer. I had a Vupoint that didn't work so returned it.

The ZS20 is generally considered very inferior in image quality when compared to *anything else*. ZS15 would be better if you want a pocketable camera.
