I still have the first generation Lumix, it`s still a very good camera (it took all the pcitures of my ACW report for example this weekend) BUT it can`t get closer then about 30cms of a model before blurring all up as it is only at 5 megapixels, which is to far off to get decent closeups
I got Photoshop CS3, and a manual for dummies, and still don`t understand a word of how it is supposed to work with layers and everything though, so that`s the plan to learn it by LPL edition 27 or so
