Panasonic Lumix FZ150

My new toy arrived yesterday and first impressions have been very favourable.

I have to admit that I didn't get on too well with my DSLR as it was too big and bulky and inconvenient swapping lenses, so it has departed, thanks to Ebay.

This bridge camera has a 24x optical zoom, equivalent of 25-600mm which will do all I require. It has also been very well reviewed, hence the purchase.

It has full HD video, though not sure I'm ready for that just yet as I'd need new video editing software and a Blu-ray burner to take full advantage.
