Hi Vern,
Are you talking about the delay between when the button is pushed and when the photo is taken? This is called shutter lag and some cameras handle it better than others. Expensive DSLRs will have shutter lag of fractions of a second... you get what you pay for.

For mid-level cameras, there are some that perform better than others. A few that have been reviewed as having quick shutter lag times are the Panasonic FZ50 (pricier, but very fast) and the Kodak Easyshare DX6440.

Hope that helps!

I am looking for a camera to photograph houses, internal and external. I don't have a photography background, however I use pics for realestate ads. Top of my list is Panasonic FZ50. Is this a good choice. Also looked at Sony DCH5 and Panasonic FZ7. ANy commnets thoughts appreciated.

Hi Rod,
The LZ50 is a great camera and would be a great choice for your needs I think... tho I would advise spending time with the instruction manual and learning to use as many features as possible, because this camera (while relatively user-friendly) has a ton of features and you'll get the best pictures by becoming familiar with them.

It would work well b/c it has things like optical image stabilization (good for the huge zoom, since zoom shots can be shaky, and also good for low-light interior situations). The zoom is also helpful if you need to get some detail shots of the houses. Also, this camera has a nice Power LCD that boosts brightness so the screen doesn't wash out. Very intelligent camera that will take good photos in almost every situation provided you can teach yourself the basics on how to use it.

Really the other cameras you mentioned would probably work just as well for you, although beware the FZ7 as it has been reviewed as having some problems in low light situations (blotchy photos).

No, I don't believe there is an optical viewfinder on this one.
