I have an FZ50, which I've been using for birding. This is my first digital camera, so I'm just learning the technology. I love it, although I have not yet taken many photos in low light. In the beginning I had my doubts about moving to a digital camera, but could not afford a DSLR, but the camera quickly won me over.
The automatic focus is too slow for flight shots, but since it has manual focus, it's not a problem. It captures excellent detail - you'll need a memory card, the one that comes with it can only handle six images at full resolution. The anti-shake is brilliant; I handhold almost all my photos, and shake has not been a problem. Personally, I couldn't be happier with it. Well worth the price.
