The Bottom Line	A wide lens and nifty tour guide feature simply can't redeem the Samsung L74 Wide from its poor image quality, slow shooting, and irritating interface.	As long as you don't want much in the way of manual features, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 is a very nice camera that can handle a variety of shooting situations.	We like the great big LCD and the manual exposure adjustability on this megazoom model, but its so-so image quality is frustrating.
