Well he probably didn't actually use it to take photographs and it was losing its showroom gloss.

Re: Morons do have a place in the world...
I do have one and it's really handy for 1280x720 video recording. It only produces MOV format so it's better to have a MAC I think. My PC has all sorts of trouble interpreting this format. I get sound sometimes only!
The lens is nice but has alot of distortion. My main gripe is that the RAW format is not supported by lightroom!!!!! Well it is, but the resultant DNG files are 3 times the size! Apparently Panasonic forgot tell everyone that their lens had ALOT of distortion which needed to be corrected by Silkypix (secret formula) before showing us the processed image. They are unhappy for Adobe to have this algorithm. So unfortunately I have had to resort to JPEGs from this camera so lightroom can see them at least. I don't want to use Silkypix as it's bad at batch processing. [also the interface sux] $450 is an absolute steal as I had to pay $650 not long ago!! Nice bargain. Also make sure you use your off camera flash with this. It syncs up to 1/2000 !!!
