Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50

I’ve never worked with film.  I started taking pictures with a Canon PowerShot A50 back in college.  When that got stolen at a late night jam session in Longford, Ireland, I moved up to a Canon G5.  When that stopped working at a camp in Oxfordshire, England, I moved up to this current machine.  It’s about as close as I could find to a DSLR without being one.  When this one stops working, I’m not sure what I’ll do…but the idea of removable lenses sure gets me excited.
