Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

I had a Lumix TZ8, I used it for about 10 years. I took this one as a replacement. Zoom wow! In the TZ8, it was always a compromise between a good zoom and a blurry frame. In this case, even at maximum zoom, the stabilization does not fail, the pictures are clear. Shot in the sun, in rainy weather, indoors, the quality is good. Good autofocus. You can focus "show finger" on the touch screen. Good macro photography. It shoots very well against the light, which the TZ 8 did not do. Many…

Pros
  • Powerful zoom; Excellent stabilization; Finally some decent panoramas! He is definitely cool! I ordered it on the official website of Panasonic. Elplaza. Received a day later.
Cons
  • The battery is weak, there is no proprietary charger to charge the battery separately. That is, pulling out the battery and charging it separately from the camera will not work: you need to plug the wires into the camera itself (but the connector is like a phone, and this makes it possible to use a power bank). Unable to connect to WiFi network. The power button is not a slider, you can press it by accident, however, so far this has not happened. And the photo view mode is not a slider. Which does not make it possible to switch to this mode before turning on the device, so as not to lose the charge and resource of the lens. But these are all trifles compared to the advantages.

Satisfied with the purchase one hundred percent, I recommend the product for everyone.

I bought a camera in the winter. Due to the fact that little can be removed in winter, I managed to be both disappointed and admired. But she was right that she took it, because now it has risen in price. In order to understand the settings, you need to download a large and thick instruction from the official site. According to the settings, of course, everything will differ from both the phone and the DSLR, because different sizes of matrices, everything is different in general. There are auto

Pros
  • + Lovely colors, rich and natural green. Brightness, contrast - everything suits me so much that I rarely edit anything. + Convenient control, touch screen. + Zoom. You can not only remove a squirrel on a branch, but even neighbors in the window of the house through half a district)) + Good autofocus. + WiFi. You can send photos directly to your phone, fast enough.
Cons
  • For such a price / quality ratio, it’s also hard to look for flaws, but I can single out a couple. - No dust and moisture protection. Not at all. No. Shooting waves on the shore is not very safe for the camera. - Sometimes the metering lies, you have to correct it in the negative. - Macro zoom - digital. With the same success, you can cut out the middle of the frame without a macro zoom and stretch it in width. - With a strong zoom, contrast and saturation decrease. - Weak battery.

Quality is top notch, happy with everything.

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…

Pros
  • Comfortable body - fits in your hand Good 30x zoom The stabilizer is just a delight Viewfinder (electronic) Supports RAW recording Fixed screen (it's like someone)
Cons
  • Connecting to Wi-Fi Application for Android Connecting to a cloud service

It has some flaws but the product is usable.

"Probe" of adult cameras in terms of functionality. God forbid, switch to it from the "SLR" (if about the picture). She is not worth her money. I took used and then I regret it, and who for the full cost is all the more sorry. Panasonic positions this model as TravelZoom (TZ) - so don't count on anything more from it. you need to shoot during the day only, then with the zoom there will be pictures that are digestible as far as it is possible to expect from such a matrix. They take a device from

Pros
  • Speed ​​"for a soap box". Good macro. A zoom in a relatively compact body. 4k photo, post focus . (well, purely to play). Electronic viewfinder.
Cons
  • The miracle didn't happen. Small matrix, dark lens even at wide angle. Almost no stabilization.

The product is unreliable, it is not worth buying.

Completely disappointed in the camera. Before that, there was a DSLR, but I got tired of carrying this weight with me everywhere, I decided to switch to something more compact. I was seduced by the rich functionality of this device, I decided to try it. But the miracle did not happen, a soap dish with a small matrix is ​​a soap dish with a small matrix, no matter how many settings it has. I will change for the system camera.

Pros
  • The richest set of functions, in this regard, it has no analogues. Ease of control - lies perfectly in the hand, all controls are intuitive Lots of manual settings. Branded chips, like post-focus, 4K photo, etc.
Cons
  • The quality of the materials: it is not felt at its cost. Seems a lot cheaper. Image quality: terrible. After a DSLR, you won’t look at all without tears, noise even at low ISOs, you can forget about clarity and sharpness in principle. The quality of technology: after 5 photos, the flash failed, it was possible to "reanimate" it only by completely resetting it to factory settings. And after 15 frames, some kind of constant background sound noise appeared, either the speaker wheezes, or something in the lens, I did not understand

Not a bad product, quite normal quality.

Before that, I used a Samsung WB700 for five years, and my wife used a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FS10. I was convinced that Lumixes draw out bad lighting much better. Judging by the reviews on other models, this only applies to Leica optics. The camera is really successful and reliable, it will not let you down due to slow focusing or trying to focus on dirty window glass (manual focus is a help, it is very convenient here). But the picture does not always turn out beautiful and clean, as we would…

Pros
  • Mighty mind. Resolution is better than 8x binoculars. Ring on the lens (softly rotates without clicking) - manual focusing like on a DSLR, plus a wheel on the control panel for other functions (for example, exposure compensation). Convenient interface (within the basic functions), you can do without a touch screen. The ability to customize the buttons to your preferences. The viewfinder is handy in some cases. Very fast autofocus (in most cases). You can take several shots in a row by quickly pressing the shutter button (in addition to a special burst mode). Lots and lots of features. Judging by the instructions, there is a built-in photoshop, no less. There is a mobile application for remote control (for example, take a selfie) and other functions (have not tried it yet).
Cons
  • Big and heavy. In my opinion, this is the maximum for a compact camera, which is planned to be constantly worn on a belt. The image is still noisy, despite the maximum Jpeg quality. Although much better than most compacts. At maximum zoom, chromatic aberration is noticeable in the most contrasting details. You can’t immediately turn on the view mode, you must first release the lens, and then switch to view. To take advantage of all the additional features, you need to carefully read the instructions, you can’t understand the menu intuitively. During serial shooting, the result is saved as an mp4 video, and then it must be parsed into frames. The image quality does not suffer, but it is not so convenient to do this. It is suggested to use a proprietary application or do it in the camera itself. When using the viewfinder, the screen turns off, but the sensor continues to work. And you can easily click on something unnecessary with your nose. The power button is located in a non-obvious place and it is easy to confuse it with a video. The cover of the connectors is rubber and very unreliable in appearance. No GPS.

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

Initial device requirements: 1. Compactness - to fit in the pocket of pants and a backpack 2. Zoom - magnification such that you can shoot handheld, without a tripod 3. 4K video recording 4. In low light, taking photos is no worse than from a smartphone. A normal fotik, this year has replaced the "Olympus sz10" that served faithfully. In all characteristics and capabilities, it is an order of magnitude better than its elderly colleague. It may not be suitable for highly artistic and masterpiece

Pros
  • Quality video; many preset settings and filters; decent battery life
Cons
  • Too heavy (compared to my previous device) built-in flash can be obscured by the middle finger of the right hand holding the device))

AMAZING quality for the price and recording capability

I was very skeptical about buying this camera for my sister. She had a cheap Nikon Coolpix camera and took fantastic shots with it that really impressed me, especially when using the zoom. It broke the other day after three or four years and I've decided it's time to update it. Not wanting a DSLR as she wanted to keep things simple, I researched many bridge cameras but their image quality left a lot to be desired. She liked the zoom of the Nikon Coolpix P900, but I hated the image quality on…

Pros
  • Full 1080/60i HD Panasonic experience Video recording with auto focus
Cons
  • Not bad but...

But I expected a lot.

First Impression: It's hard to believe the performance of this camera until you've used it. I have bags full of camera gear including the Mamiya RB-67, Pentax 6x7, Canon 5D Mk2, Canon T2i and loads of glass so trust me when I say this camera lives up to the pre-release hype. I initially set my sights on the Canon SX50, which is a good camera but falls short of its Lumix counterpart. I've focused on getting my wife an easy-to-use point-and-shoot camera as SLRs were too complicated for her, but…

Pros
  • Get close to the action with the premium 60x optical zoom (20-1200mm)
Cons
  • Damaged

Unbelievable deal but make sure you know what you are getting.

I've had a slightly larger one for years Camera and use it all the time with very good results for Facebook Pictures. I typically use autofocus to take pictures and downsize standard JPEG images by 5K to about a third of the original size for publication. I haven't had any luck posting videos mainly due to a very slow internet connection which takes too long to upload a video of any size to be worth it. From time to time I use the very cumbersome so-called manual focus with a tripod to shoot…

Pros
  • Dimensions (W x H x D) 130.2 x 97.0 x 118.2 mm / (5.13 x 3.82 x 4.65 in)
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others
