does this camera take videos as well? I need something to start learning photography with and to do home videos as well.

i own two fugi camera,s i have treated them like they were eggs in a basket. a s5100 & s9000. (beware) when fugi discontinues a model they also discontinue making most parts available . there customer service is rude and beligerant. its a shame to throw away a camera you paid good money for due to the fact the battery door latch breaks do to poor design.

I'm on Windows as well and still wondering if I should buy this camera - does it have anything decent offered on Windows?

Yes it takes videos, depends on how much space you have on the XD card as to how many videos the camera will store.

Yes, generally it takes good pictures. It also has a little box that recognizes faces. The sound quality on the little videos it takes is amazingly good.

Yes it does videos, very well outdoors. But indoors or low light they are grainy and slow (fast movement is blurred).

I am sorry, Chas, but this camera was a gift to my son. I never used it. Unlike me, he can really take advantage of all the features of the camera and he really loves it! It was a good buy indeed.

Thank you so much for the tip. I never intended to use the camera for video, so therfore I never read the instructions. I really wish the camera came with a manual. We travel a lot and the camera has so many functions I don't keep up. But I must say I love the Panasonic, the pictures are terriffic. I'm a SLR person, and got the Pansonic for ease of use and not having to lug all the lenses etc. around.

I use this for lots of my YouTube videos, and I think it's a great camera and a great value. Yes, the screen will turn all the way around, which is a real advantage if you're filming yourself for videos. I have a DSLR also, but the screen doesn't turn on that, so I use the Canon for most of my online videos. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

NO. This camera does not take video. This is a really old model that is over 10 years old. It's a great film camera, but your question implies you want a modern digital camera with video capabilities. This is not that camera.

I went on a trip to Portugal and used this camera for video and still pics. It takes great pics!!! I loved the convenience of being able to do both with one camera. Most people would not be able to tell the difference between those pics and those taken with my expensive Nikon. Now if you are just going to take photos...I would use my Nikon. The Photos taken with Panasonic W850K are wonderful and you will be pleased.

Im sorry I cant comment on the video side of this camera. I am a firm believer that in a point shoot camera you wont get the best of both worlds, if you like taking pics then review cameras that do just that & vise versa for videoing. If your intention is for non commercial or business venture then the video side of the house should soot you well. Hope this helps some what in your decision making.

YES,THIS CAMERA PRODUCES WONDERFUL VIDEO WITH SOUND !!!! AND IT COMES WITH IT'S OWN SOFTWARE,SO YOU CAN THEN TRANSFER YOUR VIDEO CLIPS(AND PICTURES) TO YOUR P.C. AND THEN CREATE FINISHED MOVIES WITH THE CLIPS SEAMLESSLY CONNECTED TOGETHER WITH EFFECTS OF YOUR CHOICE! I JUST GOT THIS CAMERA AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

It does do video but would not recommend the camera. I was not impressed. Would pay a little more and get a better one. Quality was not the best.

I haven't really used this camera much for video. It takes excellent pictures though.

I bought that for a friend last year in another state, however, I never got any feedback in regards to that camera. I did buy a different camera for another friend - Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS25 16.1 MP Tough Digital Camera with 8x Intelligent Zoom. She told me that she loved it (and it did take great pics and videos). However, the only thing that was missing was a charger for the battery. I guess that had to be purchased separately.

Yes it does although I have not made videos. I have a good camcorder so I only need this for pictures. But I love the pictures. The zoom is fantastic. I also have a big Canon DSLR but this is my go to camera for on the go now. Yes it's bigger than most point and shoots but the zoom makes it worth it.
