What people say	A very good read.... Camera Clash: Digital SLR (20D) vs All-in-One (FZ30) [Archive] - Digital Camera Resource Page - Forums My opinion and response to the opinion that the FZ20 or FZ30 offers nearly equal results to the 20D is this.... But if I'd been standing alongside that guy with his 20D/FZ30 stuff in the same light HE had, I don't think I'd have come away with as much.... dcresource.com Digital Camera Resource Page - Forums - A very good read....

If you are an outdoor photographer, you might never notice the problem with not being able to shoot with a high ISO, but if you shoot even in a city (with large buildings) on an overcast day, you need about ISO400, sometimes I shoot @ ISO 1600 with the 20D, and the pics have way less noise than the FZ30 at 100/200.... stevesforums.com Add to: Digg del.icio.us Reddit Google
