Olympus c-770 / c-765 vs Panasonic FZ3

[dcliev]

Would appreciate feed back from anyone who has compared the Panasonic FZ3 to Olympus c-770 or c-765.

I'm trying to find an EASY, ACCURATE QUALITY OUTPUT, ZOOM that REQUIRES LITTLE OR NO POST PROCESSING WORK.

Are either of these cameras going to be close to giving me that? Easy camera to use now, and good manual setting to grow into it?

Which camera did you choose and why?

Olympus C-770UZ.
For the better photo quality, very compact size, flash hotshoe and MPEG4 movie. Go for the C765UZ if you do not need the last 2 things. The lack of IS may put off some people.

FZ3 is compact but the shape is not good (lens) for putting into a jacket pocket.

Dcliev,

I agree with Thon, the picture quality of the C-770 is a different class, just outstanding.

Cheers, Herbert
