Ed, I've made many HDR composite shots including moving seas, and the character of the moving water captured is always a surprise to me (in a good way).

I get most of my photo gear in pre-loved condition so I don't generally find myself in your situation. I suggest you examine the camera under a strong light for scratches, scuffs etc indicative of use, then take Dieter's suggestion to check the actuations. If it looks like new and has less than 10 actuations, then treat it as new and enjoy it. If it turns out otherwise, then you have an issue with Amazon.

I tend to follow the 'good enough' philosophy with cameras so I don't think I've ever been at the cutting edge, tech wise. Last year I traded my GF1 for a used GX-7 and nothing has happened since to make me think I need to change again. As Gerry says, the menus actually make sense, the viewfinder is good, there is enough control and customization available, and the images are good enough. Of course, the M4/3 lens line-up is important - I use both Lumix and Zuiko lenses without fear or favour. And - point of disclosure - I keep an Oly E-PL3 as my travel camera. So yes, I think Panasonic is a good choice. for the hobbyist photographer.
