VersatileClamp 1.5 (more versatile than a tripod) for Panasonic Compact Digital Cameras (plus one 4 AA / AAA battery case) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Mounted on the rear fender with a compact digital camera, nothing exciting about the video, except for the song, it is mainly to show how sturdy the clamp is.

Now you can get those pictures or videos with artistic angles, mounts to almost anything and everything. Your Imagination is the Limit!
This compact clamp is made in the USA, VERY well built, small enough to fit in you pocket.
It allows a camera or camcorder that has a tripod mount, to be solidly attached to a table, car window, handlebar, skateboard, hand glider, tree branch, park bench, shopping cart, so on and so forth (you get the idea), using a standard 1/4"-20 threaded quick connect screw, just like any camera tripod. Strong enough for most cameras or camcorders, it attaches to either round or flat objects from 0" to 1.5" thick, with rubber on both sides of the clamp, it will not scratch or slip. It utilizes a ball and socket mount to allow the camera maximum flexibility in framing the subject.
Specifications:Weight: 5.46 ozSize Folded: 3" long x 1.75" wide x 3.75" highHeight Opened: 5.25" highClamp Opening: 0" to 1.5"Maximum Design Load: 4 lbsMaximum Safe Load: 6 lbsWarranty: 1 year manufacturer

Olympus 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 Zuiko Digital Zoom Lens (Black) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Where I am coming from:
I was an early adopter of the Panasonic GF1 with the 20mm f/1.7 lens and I own another major brand DSLR. I have been a careful follower of the Micro Four Thirds standard since it was announced because I was tired of carrying around my large D-SLR and assortment of big heavy lenses. As such, I use my Micro Four Thirds camera when I won't be doing heavy shooting so I tend to put more emphasis on form factor. I recently evaluated the Panasonic 14-140mm (you can look up my review of the lens).
Summary:
This lens is an amazing form factor for its capability. This belongs on every portable Micro Thirds Camera.
What I LIKE about this lens:
1. FORM FACTOR- It's remarkable to think that you can get so much capability into such a small package. The collapsible design is brilliant. When not in use, the majority of the lens can be retracted. A clever switch prevents "unintentional retractions" while shooting. It reminds me of how some point and shoot lenses retract when switching off. I hope to see more lenses for the Micro Four Thirds standard capable of doing such. When collapsed, this lens measures only 43mm long and only weighs 150g.
2. RANGE - From a 35mm camera perspective, the 2x crop factor makes this lens a 28-84mm equivalent. The 14-42mm range is incredibly useful. Most casual photography can be performed with this lens. I used it for a brunch with family and some walkaround photography.
3. PRICE - I think this lens can sell for significantly more given that its competition is really not much better but much bigger & heavier. It is an incredible value.
4. COMPATIBILITY - Micro Four Thirds standard seems to be working. I experienced no focus problems using this lens on the Panasonic GF1.
What I did NOT LIKE about this lens:
1. SOFTWARE DISTORTION CORRECTION - The Panasonic & Olympus Micro Four Thirds camera use software to correct for lens distortion. The camera software is not currently correcting for lens distortion. This may be a temporary issue, as of this morning, Panasonic released a firmware update for its Micro Four Thirds cameras. As such, I will not make any deductions in rating.
2. FRINGING - There is some minor color fringing issues so there can be a perceived lack of sharpness on certain shots. But, to make this comment on a kit lens is being pretty picky.
3. PLASTIC - Helps with keeping the lens light but it could be less durable and could wear down more rapidly after sustained use.

The Olympus Zuiko Digital 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6, 3x Standard Zoom Lens is the smallest and lightest in its class and features a closest focusing distance of only 25cm. The ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and two aspherical lens elements correct aberrations without increasing lens dimensions. The circular aperture diaphragm enables beautiful defocusing - one of the big advantages of this lens. Excellent mobility is assured by a weight of less than 190 grams.

In today?s day and age of high tech gadgets and emerging technologies one thing is certain; people are relying more and more on consumer electronics and home appliances in our daily lives than ever before. Of course, we all expect the products we buy to perform well and serve us throughout the years, but in reality consumer electronics malfunction all the time. We often buy consumer electronics or appliance products based solely on the name brand. This is because we either feel comfortable with the quality the manufacturer produces or we take comfort in knowing that in the event of a malfunction the manufacturer will stand by their product and make the necessary repairs. Most manufacturers? written warranties offer fantastic parts and labor protection. However, the duration of this coverage under the written warranty is often far too short (e.g. 90 days parts or 1 year parts and labor). Manufacturers strategically limit their liabilities in order to cut down their final cost price and make their products more attractive to the marketplace. Let's face the facts. If you are like most of us, you are not expecting to buy a new Camera , Camcorder or any other major appliance every single year. You want to buy the new product and use it for as many years as it will last. There is only one way for a consumer to be certain that the product you are purchasing will be functioning to factory specifications in say 4 or 5 years from now. This Extended Service Plan offers you the identical high quality protection as the manufacturer?s written warranty did. This plan extends your coverage for up to 5 (five) full years after the manufacturer?s written warranty expires.

Vivitar Vivicam V7022 7.1MP HD Digital Camera Grape Purple Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Do not waste your money on this or any of the cameras in this Vivitar line. I am sure they make some fine products but this one and the 10 mp camera were absolute junk. All of the photos looked like they were taken with a cell phone and the video it took (supposedly HD) was a complete joke. There are plenty of other cheap cameras that do just fine.

Olympus 202315 Adjustable Wrist Strap (Black) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Why doesn't every camera come with a strap like this? Actually, my original Canon S80 did, but, sadly, we don't see this style very prevalent amongst today's cameras. In fact, if you do some checking, you might find, as I did, that this is one of the ONLY handstraps for a point and shoot camera that contains the all important slider piece which allows you to tighten the strap onto your wrist so that the strap (and the camera) doesn't slide off your hand at the first moment you aren't paying attention.
Once you use a design like this, you'll scratch your head in incredulity as to why it is not "standard issue" for all wrist straps. The problem with the wrist strap, of course, is that it slides off your hand almost as easily as it slides on, with the potential result being a dropped camera. With the inclusion of the 1 cent slider on the strap, you are able to slide the strap on and then more securely affix the strap to your wrist, making for a better shooting experience and a great deal more measure of security.
Grab one or two of these while they are still available. Why four stars instead of five? Well, because (and I'm being picky here) the strap is not flat (it uses a standard round rope-style format). The flat style is a bit more comfortable over the long term, and hence, the deduction of one star. However, the ability to secure strap to your hand with the slider is a much more important factor. Highly recommended.

Premium Cga-s005, Cga-s005e, Dmw-bcc12 Battery Home Travel Charger with Car Adapter for Panasonic Digital Camera & Camcorder Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)What I had hoped is that it might work... that is how good the price was...
I keep it in my car to keep available in case of a charging emergency.
I tried it and was a little worried when I only saw two power contacts to the battery BUT IT ACTUALLY CHARGED MY BATTERY (SLOW CHARGE). No problems, I would recommend it for Panasonic Lumix cameras.
Mine is a LX3 prosumer (newer battery than TZ series).

4GB SD / HC Memory Card Secure Digital BigVALUEInc Accessory Saver Bundle for Panasonic Cameras Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The product which was a very attractive bundle came on time, but the memory card was defective. I must say however that the customer service from the Company was great. I was not able to check the card within the 7 day return policy time, so I did not bother to contact the Seller, and just did a review. Company called and apologized and indicated that they would gladly ship a replacement card the next day which they did, (even though it was long after the 7 day return time). Got the new card quickly and it works perfectly.
So for the customer service and the new card I give more than 5 stars - for the original item I still give 3 1/2 stars even though the original card (which is what I really needed) was defective, since it also came with a card reader and a neat memory card/card reader case.
I would still do business with this company again, and recommend it.

(More customer reviews)These batteries are very good. They seem to work about equally as well as the OEM Panasonic batteries, which BTW list at something like $60 EACH (street price about $27.00 on Amazon). At about $3.70 each here, these batteries, which seem to take and hold a charge about as well as the OEM parts (can't comment on useful life yet), and work perfectly in the camera, are a terrific bargain.

Panasonic DMC-FX37S 10MP Digital Camera with 5x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The exemplary build quality gives this camera a luxury feel. The camera is dense, feels hefty for its size when picked up, unlike many similar cameras that feel like a piece of plastic. This is a fine example of Japanese craftsmanship. It is fast and very responsive in operation. The lens is fantastic, 25mm (effective) wide angle is rare among such cameras, significantly wider angle than the 28mm of the FX33. In wide angle lenses every mm counts. Thankfully, the max aperture is back to f/2.8 - the FX35 maxed at f/3.3. The lens is sharp edge to edge with very little, if any, in the way of distortion and chromatic aberration. Certainly, the lens is better than the sensor. The wide aperture (f/2.8) at the wide angle is great for low light [The lenses on the FX35, TZ3, TZ4 and TZ5 are not as fast].
The flash is weak [manufacturers under-power the flash in order to gain on the "shots per battery charge" scale.].
Hints: In low light, including indoor shots with flash, use the wide angle (zoom out) to make use of the f/2.8 aperture, and you'll get fewer dark underexposed pictures. Stick with ISO 100 and 200. Keep ISO 400 for emergencies, but never go beyond 400. In auto-ISO mode, you can limit the max ISO. You probably read a lot about image noise. Yes, it is there, but you will not see it in 4x6 or 8x10 prints. You won't see it on a typical 20" monitor (12"x16") when viewing the whole image on the screen. You will see it if you view part of the image 1:1, which amounts to close up inspection of a 57"x38" print (assuming the monitor is running at 1024x768). Those wanting 57"x38" prints will be using a medium-format digital back, not this camera anyway. Reduce the resolution to 3 or 5 mp and you'll see less noise (per pixel), and save hard disk space!
I recommend an extra battery and a 4 GB memory card (minimum).
Optical image stabilization is very effective indeed. Video (1280x720x30) is very good.
I took out one star for: 1) Lack of full manual controls, 2) sensor noise.
This camera needs a larger sensor.
The more expensive TZ3, TZ4 and TZ5 lack the f/2.8 aperture (they max at f/3.3).
If you like the size and build-quality of the FX37, but want a better picture-taking machine, look at the LX3. It has a larger sensor, manual controls, RAW, and an excellent 24-60mm (equiv) f/2-2.8 lens. The LX3 is destined to be a big hit.
