Swivel screens useless??? I know many situations where this feature comes in very handy because I use it on my Canon PowerShot Pro1 now for 3 years (though I can't use it anymore after an unfortunate fall :-( ). I never have to lie down or twist myself in impossible angles to get the shot I want. I can take pictures easily with my cam on the ground, against a wall or above my head. I do a lot of urban exploring (taking photographs in abandoned locations) and all my fellow explorers envy me with that swinging LCD-screen! And it's a bless for macrophotography too. Don't ever say again that swivel screens are for amateur point-and-shoot cameras only. You're just jealous ;-) I need a new cam and I'll definitely buy this Panasonic for that swiveling LCD-screen.
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”

yea, swivel screens are about as useless and amateurish as waistlevel finders on MF. oh wait.
And let me see, canon 40d has presets. is that a p&s crowd camera?
The Panasonic is a great camera for those who like the adventages of 43rds.
