    It’s a very fair point. Noise is something which bothers some people, but others may not notice as much. We also have real life examples at cameralabs . com in our gallery and results pages.

  4. Moss905b says:

    Just think how much it would cost to buy a high quality VR type Nikon or Canon lens with the FZ8’s zoom range. IMO the noise issue with small sensors are way over-rated. When we used high speed B/W or color film we saw huge grain effects, & others raved about the grittiness of Kodak Tri-X 400. Steves-digicams have got great ‘real world’ type sample photos & the FZ8 photos look fine to me!

    I’ve not tested the S3 so can’t really say - sorry! But do compare prices closely against the newer FZ18 and S5 models as sometimes the older ones aren’t much cheaper.

    Hi. . im on a tight budget. . and im choosing between Canon s3 is and Panasonic Fz8. . which one can produce great image quality. . which one will you prefer. . Thanks i really need some help. .

  7. cameralabs says:

    The battery details are at the bottom of the design page of our full review at cameralabs. Yep, it should come with a battery, but some unscrupulous dealers may remove it and try and sell seperately, so watch out! Again you can find reputable dealers on the cameralabs website.

  8. christianity919 says:

  14. ohumeid says:

    is it true that VENUSIII engine is adding its noise reduction thing even in the RAW mode. . is the raw mode useful to optimize noise reduction from this specific model? thanks

  15. cameralabs says:

    Hi, both models have been replaced by the TZ5 and FZ18, and we’ve detailed the differences in the verdict page of our TZ5 review at cameralabs . com.

  16. dudabraga says:

    being super compact its not very important for me cause im always with a bag,but if tz3 have also good zoom. . how about other caracteristics?the price is the same. . im realy confused,help me please!thanks

  17. dudabraga says:

    i would like to know the diferences between tz3 and fz8. . . sory,i dont know much about cameras. . im loking for one. . for now im loking for this ones,,fz8 is best because it have more manual opcions?how about ISO?beter than tz3? thanks

  18. Joenov1977 says:

    No, you cannot change the lens. It is not a slr camera.

  19. otepx2 says:

    is there any available lenses that can replace this FZ8 or i mean does this model can change the lenses itself? thanks

  20. djdriv3 says:

    yoo buy the sony dsc h 7 or 9 and u kan upgrade with a nice kit and then with uv lenses many lenses check out this site-pemaraal(dot)com

  21. cameralabs says:

    I haven’t tested the H3, so can’t say. . . Of the models I have tested though, I reckon the newer FZ18 is the best super-zoom around. . .

  22. djdriv3 says:

    SONY DSCH3B vs PANASONIC DMCFZ8EGS wich one is the best panasonic or sony?hlp pls

  23. yes350yes says:

    I have been thinking of upgrading to this camera. I have a svp 3xopt zoom max 8zoom. The question I have with your camera can I take movies and post them with clarity, which I cant do with mine, its blury.

  24. dryan2 says:

    i love my FZ18, the $100 extra is worth it.

  25. cameralabs says:

    Hi! I’ve detailed the differences in the verdict page of the FZ18 review at the Cameralabs website.
