Does this model (XP70) also have the Motion Panorama Mode that the XP 60 has? (press the shutter button &amp; sweep to produce panoramic picture)

Yes it does. Really loving this camera. Just took it on a trip to the Bahamas, and it was the only camera we needed. Great pictures and video inside, outside and underwater!

I do believe it does have that. It also is great in dim or dark light. I love this camera. The camera has High-speed Burst Mode: approx. 10 frames/sec. I suggest you go to the Panasonic WEBSITE.

The high speed (slow-mo) is cool, but it's lower-resolution than full HD. See this link to a video I mad with this camera: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xi-72avWLY. All the exterior shots and slow-motion shots were made with this camera. I believe the latest update to this camera from Panasonic (the FZ200) has full resolution high-speed video, but I'm not sure.

Love my ZS3. One thing I really like is the dedicated "video capture" button. I don't have to change to a video mode, I just hit the button any time to capture movies. Great camera!www.panasonic.net/lumix

Per ephotozine.com: "The E-PM2 doesn't feature an automatic panoramic mode, instead features a panoramic assist mode to help you line up seperate photos, so that you can stitch them together on the computer later. HDR mode - the camera has a HDR bracketing mode, however the cameras doesn't automatically merge these together, instead you must do this later on the computer."

The zoom is amazing. As for wide its goes wide like other cameras. But doesnt do any kind of panoramic that i can tell. Just put it on a stand and turn camera slightly after each shot and you can make your own panoramic.

This is the same for me. My old SONY DSC 100 was able to do this...It would say capture in the viewfinder when you pressed the shutterbutton. The DSC 400V I just bought does NOT do this. How can some above say it does??

No, this camera has no pan / tilt capability. It does have a digital zoom function.

The answer is effectively no. The camera will not automatically stitch panoramas. It does have a panorama shooting mode, but it saves the images individually and requires that you stitch them together with the bundled software on a computer. You cannot edit or adjust these images at all before stitching. I found the process frustrating. I do take panoramas with this camera, but use a third party program (Hugin) or iPad app (Panorama) and do not use the camera's panorama mode (since I prefer to have finer control over exposure and white balance).

Yes very good ones! There is a 120,180 and 360 degree option! I just took my brand new xp200 to Hawaii and the picture quality and all the settings it has is amazing!!! Definitely worth the money 100%

Thanks very much for the info., Les. I actually returned my camera when even Panasonic tech support couldn't fix the problem, but I later learned it was not a defective camera. I'll be buying it again in the near future as I think it's a great camera, and I'll be saving your message in an attempt to figure it all out. Also, too bad there's no flash button on the camera and that you have to go to the menu to fiddle with it. That's weird! (and too bad it doesn't pop up automatically, like my Sony) THANKS AGAIN!

You cannot change either, however there are 14 scene modes and 2 different burst modes, pano, HD movie, lots of features. Read them all here: http://www.fujifilmusa.com/products/digital_cameras/xp/finepix_xp200/features/

I've tried to do some time lapse filming with my PJ650V, but I couldn't find a way to do it. None of the documentation I've found describes it.

It can do both. I use it mainly in the motion activated mode. But, you can set it up as a plot camera where it'll shoot so many seconds of video each day at a specified time. I own two of these and they've been great cameras for the money.

this little camera takes fantastic pictures--almost as good as my big Canon sorry I cant compare it to the xp70we bought this because it was "waterproof--going rafting down the Colorado and wanted to take pictures Hope this helps

No it does not, there is an indicator that shows motion on that camera when in multiple view but does not change the view

I have never used the XP70 so I can't say which is better. When looking at different cameras the XP70 didn't have wifi (which I wanted). That's the reason I didn't choose the XP70.
