I am a hobby photographer that only uses a point and shoot. I have had the Panasonic DCM-LX1 (with Leica lense and 16:9) for over a year and really like it. No problems at all. Good battery life. I did get an extra battery when I got the camera but rarely have to use it.
Lots of nice features. Easy to learn and use (but the point and shoots probably all are)
It uses the SD memory card.
Invest in a good soft case, like a Lowepro, with good padding.
It is 8.4 MP and I have blown up pictures to over 48" x 48" with incredible results. It will shoot in several formats including raw, which are big files. These were indoor shots but taken with good lighting. I used it to do art work for a trade show display. I gave the picture files to the trade show display company for the blow ups and they wanted to know who we used for the work as they thought the work was good (I was flattered but blamed it on the camera).
