Sufficient memory is not included.
Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.
Start with a very slender, compact body (3.7 x 2.1 x 0.7"/9.4 x 5.3 x 1.8 cm), add a Leica 4x wide-angle lens (28-112mm equivalent in 35mm format), gently stir in 16.1MP resolution and a 2.7" LCD monitor, and what do you get? A terrific, affordable little digital camera.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH5 Digital Camera (Black) has everything you could ask for, plus lots of features you might not think of. Like fast autofocus, fast start-up time, and a very short release-time (shutter) lag. Or iA (Intelligent Auto) mode that takes care of everything for you except pushing the shutter button. Shooting beautiful movies in 1280 x 720 HD video is a snap--just push one button. Blurry pictures will be a distant memory with the FH5--sensitivity up to ISO 6400 plus MEGA O.I.S. image stabilization banishes those shaky images forever. You can even shoot up to 4.4 frames per second in Hi-speed Burst mode (recorded in 3MP resolution).
28 different Scene modes (Portrait, Soft Skin, Panorama, Baby 1 and Baby 2, Beach, Candle Light, etc.) will make sure you've got the optimal settings for all the most common photo subjects. 8 color modes (Standard, Vivid, Natural, Black & White, Sepia, Cool, Warm, and Happy) make it easy to get creative with color.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH5 Digital Camera (Black):
The camera is great, easy to use. The screen has a very good definition, just as good as the image quality. The scene mode really works and improves the pictures taken. The only problem with the camera is the battery, you'll have to charge it almost every day if you are in vacations.

Lumix is a great brand that makes awesome products. I've been using the GF-1 like an extension of my body so I decided to get this model as gifts. They love it, and the quality is great.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH5 Digital Camera (Black):
My previous camera was the 14 mp which I only thought I loved until I started playing with this bad boy. The menu options are way more simple to use and change modes and such. The additional megapixels also make a huge difference in the quality of your photos. In addition, I adore how slender the model is - it fits in just about any pocket perfectly for easy access.
