Hi,
Guys I need to choose among Panasonic Lumix: 6-Megapixel DMC-LZ5 or 5-Megapixel DMC-LZ3, and I cant really decide.

The problem is that they both cost the same, atleast in Singapore.....and LZ5 is clealry better than LZ 3 with 2.5" LCD compared to 2"LCD of LZ3 and 1 more MegaPixel and its slightly more good looking aswell. I might sound crazy but I fear a flaw or defficiency in LZ5 resulting in a lower price.

So guyz can you please help me out with this by sharing your personal experience with these cams or otherewise advice. Thanks alot in advance

Not familiar with the LZ's. I have the FZ5 and love it. I wouldn't think there'd be any problems with the 5 over the 3 in any event. If the prices are equal, go with the bigger pixels.....you won't be sorry if you do any cropping. And the bigger LCD sounds nice. That's my one complaint about the FZ5....puny LCD.
