I don’t know a focal plane from an aperture, but I would like a camera that will take photos from indoors with poor lighting to outdoors at higher end of the zoom range and wide angle shots giving good results with few manual adjustments, maybe ISO settings adjustments. These two cameras have some impressive reviews. I like the size of the Panasonic, the 18x zoom and face detection features of the Fugifilm, but these issues aside, which camera would take the best photos?

I need my camera to be a compact (semi-compact) high zoom camera, which uses a Li-ion battery. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3K seems like the best deal, but I have heard about it having a not so good image quality under low light. I also have a casio z500 (i think) which has a terrible quality under low light.

my digital camera, Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS3, does it have the function zoom while recording ? if yes, how do i turn that function on ?

Lumix G VARIO 45-200mm/4.0-5.6 zoom lens w/MEGA Optical Image Stabilization covers the 35mm equivalent from 90-400mm to help the user capture crisp, blur-free, shots when shooting sports events, wildlife and other distant subjects
