If you’re like me when you go to spend a sizable amount of money on a new piece of electronic technology you head right to the online reviews. I’ve always liked Panasonic products so when I needed to buy a new digital camera I had already chosen my brand but to be sure I did my usual internet search for Panasonic Digital Camera reviews and complaints.

You really need to read a good cross section of them from different sources since many times affiliate product promoters will stuff good made up reviews on a site in hopes of you buying something through them. With that as their goal you know not to put much stock in them. You tend to notice trends when you digest large amounts of reviews and cries for help on the digital camera forums and then you finally reach a point where a conclusion can be drawn from your unscientific research. My conclusion was that Panasonic makes a moderately priced and an exceptionally good digital camera that has features beyond its net worth and that it didn’t hardly break down at all.

What I did learn is that all the complaints attached to the Panasonic name were about the dealers and sellers who didn’t ship on time, didn’t ship at all or performed some other act of customer service absurdity. I also learned who not to buy my next new Panasonic digital camera from. Excuse me for now I have to decide what model Lumix I’m going to own!
