Memory Card - Make sure you buy the correct one!!!This is not a review of the camera itself. Other folks have done that quite well. It's a good little camera for the money. I own one and use it as a supplement to a high end SLR that I also own.
What I'm commenting on here concerns the MEMORY CARD. If you buy an additional card, make sure you buy a card rated "CLASS 6" (or better). That's the recommendation from Panasonic.
Amazon is doing a disservice to its customers by listing a Kingston "Class 4" card in its "Frequently Bought Together" section of this camera. Kingston makes great cards. But a class 4 card is not what this camera needs.
Here's the deal. The camera takes "SD" type memory cards, so of course, you have to buy that type of card. But beyond that, you also must purchase a "CLASS 6" type SD card. Not to get too technical, but the "class" is the speed rating of the card and it measures the minimum sustained write speeds. A camera designed to record to class 6 media (this camera) may suffer dropouts or corrupted video on slower media like class 4. And PANASONIC RECOMMENDS CLASS 6 (or more) type cards for this camera. So look for it. The class number will usually be included in the name of the card. Don't buy a Class 4 card.
Since I'm on the subject of cards, there's one other thing to be aware of when getting an additional memory card for this camera: storage size. As you probably know, storage size is the space on the card that stores your shots or videos. It's measured in GB (gigabytes). The more storage the better: 8 GBs is better than 4 GBs, 16 GBs is better than 8 GBs, etc. If you plan on taking some videos with this camera, which consumes lots of memory, very quickly, get the highest storage size you can afford. Even if you don't take long videos, the higher the GBs, the more shots you can take before running out of storage space where you can't take any more shots. Read more...
