The Panasonic DMC-ZS3 Digital Camera records HD motion images at a smooth 60 frames per second with 1280 x 720-pixel resolution. The Panasonic DMC-ZS3 Digital Camera uses the AVCHD (MPEG-4/H.264) format, via AVCHD Lite, which stores less data than other formats and thus lets you shoot more minutes of HD motion images before running out of memory.
You can zoom in and out while shooting motion images, and record dynamic, true-to-life audio that brings out the power of the HD images with the stereo mic. The Panasonic DMC-ZS3 Digital Camera is the world's first compact camera to feature Dolby(R) sound.
Wind cut function minimizes the distracting sound you hear from wind blowing into the mic.
The Panasonic DMC-ZS3 Digital Camera is equipped with an HDMI output terminal for direct transmission of digital picture and sound signals. It's easy to view beautiful HD photos and motion images on your HDTV.

I did a lot of comparisons with other brands (Sony, Cannon, Nikon, Kodak, etc) before I decided to go with the Panasonic DMC-ZS3 and I am very happy I did so. Dollar for dollar, this camera offers a lot for the money and the zooming capability is outstanding. The ability to record in HD is also a big plus. The intelligent automatic function takes care of everything you can imagine with great precision. I am still learning about the features. If you are into manual set-ups, give yourself time to learn the features as it takes time.

MEGAPIXELS AND PHOTO PRINT SIZE
The
photo print quality of your images depends on the camera's "megapixel
rating." The higher number of pixels your camera has, the higher the resolution
(or sharpness) of your images---and the larger your prints can be without
quality loss.
Digital Camera Flash Storage
Capacities
* Average file size
using cameras highest resolution JPEG mode. Actual number of
photos, songs, and minutes will vary depending on camera/device model,
format resolution and compression, usable capacity, and bundled software.
Actual usable memory capacity may vary. 1MB equals 1 million bytes; 1GB
equals 1 billion bytes.
NUMBER OF IMAGES STORED ON A DIGITAL CARD The number of
pictures you can take varies depending on your camera model and complexity
of the scene being photographed. To calculate how many pictures your card
can hold, divide the capacity of your card by the average file size of your
images. For example, if you have a 256MB card, and use a camera that has an
average file size of 1.2MB, then 256 divided by 1.2 gives you approximately
213 pictures. As you change modes on your camera, the number of images will
increase if you shoot in a lower resolution mode, and decrease if you shoot
in a higher resolution mode.
Contents of package may vary from those pictured and stated here,
