Summary: So COOOOOL!!!!
Review: 2.11 MEGA PIXEL / MP3 PLAYER / VOICE RECORDER (Digital/super quality), Digital CAMCORDER in ONE!!! Super small!!! (less than 1 centimeters thick!!) It fits in your pocket!!!! Camera is better than Canon A60 I had. The flash is so strong and NO NOISE WHATSOEVER even at ISO 200 ! So much details. Oh yes, it comes with every accessories in a box!! case, memory card, strap, MP3 software, cool Japanese style earphone with remote, and much more!!! Battery lasts for 10 HOURS in one charge!!!! It has docking station that you can charge and do whatever you want! Nobody notices when I take pictures because it is so small. Don't buy cheap camera phone that is only 0.11 mega pixels and cost half a thousand, save money and get free phone and this SUPER GADGET!!

Summary: Sweet camera
Review: First of all, the complaints about the image quality are TOTALLY untrue. For some reason people expect 5 megapixel quality from a 2 MP camera - its not going to happen! The camera definitely gets a lot of looks from people when you use it, because its smaller than most cell phones. The rechargable batteries are awesome, and the cradle included makes transfering pictures to the PC a snap! The only complaint I have is that the flash is too close to the lens; it reflects dust particals, thus creating 'white spots' on some pictures. However, this only occurs on occasion(ie - dusty rooms). I would recommend this if you want something portable and good picture quality. Plus, dont forget to upgrade the SD card to atleast 128M.

Summary: small in size and ok picture quanlity
Review: first, the camera has a really cool color, orange, blue and silver. It had music player, still picture, voice recorder, and video, a lot of functions. In a really small of camera size. It used SD memory card, so you can keep data on multiple card, you nevr run out of memory. If you dont need super super clear picture quanlity, I would say it is the best camera!

Summary: Picture quality just fair
Review: For a 2 MP digital camera, picture quality is only good for small print or web use, but all the other functions are great. MP3 player works well, voice recorder is excellent. I particularly like the 10 seconds note function with the picture.

If you are looking for a small (and I mean small) camera to travel so you can keep notes and pictures, this is it.

I recommend a 258 mb SD card for the camera. I brought the least expansive Sandisk one and it works fine.

I would give it a 5 stars if the picture quality is better.

Summary: Great little gadget
Review: For size and build quality, this little item is superb. It is a technological marvel, being so light, yet so functional. The picture quality is excellent considering it is a 2MP camera, but the digital zoom is a little too sensitive. When the zoom is on max, a little movement is captured or the picture is blurred. In normal mode, the pictures are superb. Very sharp, clear and light capture excellent.

The user menu is pretty much self-explanatory, and easy to use. The ball button, is a little annoying at times as it is not the fastest method of navigating through menus.

The video feature is again surprisingly good, with sound capture superb, and video excellent. Again the zoom lets this feature down too. It seems the best way to use the camera/video is by not using the zoom at max or at all.

As an MP3 player, the AS10 does a good job, but is let down by the software. The Jukebox software is long-winded and complicated. It would have been much better if the software allow click and drag of files to the SD card.

Unlike general digital cameras, where the camera if it accepts SD cards it will also accept MMC cards, the AS10 does not accept anything bar the SD card. This is worth bearing in mind.

The product is self is lovely, the cradle, rechargeable battery are all good features and the AS10 also comes with carry case, although not very protective. Due to the size of the AS10, it's very handy to carry around everyday, as you never know when an exciting photo opportunity may come. Also it would have been nice if Panasonic could have supplied an SD card that is larger than 8mb.

Summary: Wrong description! Please be careful.
Review: For some reason, Panasonic is distributing a wrong spec.
Amazon uses it too. Thickness is not 0.05" as described!! it's impossible: 0.05" is thinner than the 10 cent coin! it is actually 0.4".

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: As a Camera, Its not worth buying.
Review: I bought this mainly for the small size, video clips, and still pictures. I was gonna use the other features later. The size is incredibly small and I was delighted. Did ok on the vdeo clips, even though it onlycame with a 16 meg module. Only get 20 seconds. But mainly, Until I took pictures. The pictures we outright bad.

Summary: a good cam if small size is important
Review: I got this camera about 6 weeks ago. I have heard that the best camera is the one you have with you when you need it. So that would make this a good camera. I take it with me everywhere because it is so small and fits in my pocket. It is no more inconvenient to carry than a cell phone.

A couple problems I have with it are that the lens rotates so you can take a pic of yourself....but the flash does not rotate with the lens. So if you are in a poorly lit area and want to take a pic of yourself, all the benefits of having a rotating lens are lost. This is only a minor problem to me, but I think it is poor design.

The second problem is that the SD card it comes with is small...very small. 8mb. Is that some kind of joke? Most digital cameras come with small memory cards, but they are promoting this thing as a multi function device: camera, camcorder, mp3 player. My Panasonic mp3 player came with a 64mb card, why does this come with only 8mb? It is supposed to be an mp3 player too. They might as well have not included any memory with this camera. I was lucky that I bought it while Panasonic was having a promotion and they sent me a free 128mb card. Which only took about 1 week to arrive, not 6-8 like they said.

I only use the camera function, so I cannot comment on the other functions, but overall I am happy with it. However I would not want this to be my only camera. When I go on a trip or someplace where I know I will be taking a lot of pics I will bring a different camera, as this camera is only 2mp and does not have an optical zoom. If you want a small camera you can carry with you at all times then this one is good. If small size is not the most important thing to you, then you should look at something else.

Summary: Surpassed expectations
Review: I had pretty low expectations when I first tried this camera. I had no idea how much it cost as it was a gift. It actually worked pretty well. Picture quality is decent for such a small camera. If you take the time to focus on an object, the picture comes out in focus and with decent color composition.

Plus batter life seemed very good considering you have to use the LCD(no view finder).

Recommended for someone wanting an on-the-go 2nd digital camera for snapshots.
