Review on Panasonic DMC FZ70 Digital Optical Stabilized by Siu Jang ᠌

The local name for the camera is TZ80. The camera was chosen in comparison with the similar Canon (40x) and Nikon (35x), the dimensions of the matrices are the same for all, the lenses are also similar in description, the dimensions and appearance of the cameras are also very close - what was to choose? According to the examples of photos on flickr, the Panasonic camera looked preferable, in addition, little things like RAW, viewfinder and other things led to the choice of it. As for the quality of the photo, you still need to figure it out (study the instructions), while strong chromatic aberrations are visible in test shots in RAW, there is no lens profile in Adobe, so you can only correct them using general methods. Hopefully it will show up over time. In in-camera Jpeg, aberrations are practically not visible. The matrix also makes a noticeable noise, even at ISO 80 - in RAW all the shadows are in the noise. Similarly, in Jpeg, noise is suppressed quite well. After the purchase, it turned out that the instruction in 406 (!) Pages must be downloaded from the site and memorized - in order to connect the camera via Wi-Fi to at least something. In general, you can manage it from your smartphone (if you need it for some reason). But to send a photo to a computer, it is better to take a cable or pull a card out of the camera. Even if you manage to connect it to something via W-Fi, it will take so much time to transfer files (only Jpeg, no RAW) (from half an hour for a dozen photos) that it is faster to connect the cable.
