The image quality is not impressive.
The main important feature in the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 is it shoots 720p HD movies. The color and overall look is decent. For more details refer Panasonic lumix dmc-fz28 camera

Let me state for the record that I am a Canon lover and I bought this camera just because I was looking for a high zoom camera and Canon just refuses to go higher! Sorry Canon, I still love you, but now I love my FZ28 better!
