Great camera at a great price
Upgraded from a Lumix FZ150 and the f/2.8 lens is a real plus. Light weight, easy to carry and uses the same battery as my Lumix G5. So it's a very capable backup to the G5 and very useful when I don't want to change lens or carry more gear. The current Panasonic price of $249 is a steal in my book.
Feature rich, affordable price.
I think this camera gives me the most features that are important to me at the most reasonable price. It has many more features than I'll ever use, but as I get more comfortable with it, I'm sure I'll venture deeper into the feature set. It simply takes great pictures.- Easy To Use
- Fast/accurate auto-focus
- Good Image Quality
- Good in Low Light
- Great Zoom
- Large Clear LCD
- Short Lag Time
The Panasonic Lumix FZ200 falls into our "superzoom" category, boasting a 25-600mm (35mm equivalent) lens, which surpassed the rest of the super zoom category in terms of lens quality.

Lucky break
After purchasing and sending back 4 (four) identical but defective copies of the same camera (all made in China), inspired by an exceptional Japanese made early model (of the DMC-FZ200), this Chinese made piece turned out to be very close in performance to the original, so far...
Fab camera

Pros: 1.The best part is it maintains constant f2.8 aperture which enables you to take good images even at high zoom 2.The 24x zoom feature is the best, you don't need more, but still using intelligent mode you can reach upto 96x zoom 3.The...- Easy To Use

- Large Clear LCD
- Tilt /Swivel LCD

Very good camera
Casual user hoping to become enthusiast, so learning to use it. Can be complex if you go out of auto mode, but worth the trouble to get better quality photos. Nice constant f/2.8 lens to equivalent 600 mm zoom worth the lower optical zoom (24x). Also, don't have to carry multiple lens as in a DSLR.- Fast/accurate auto-focus
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- Good in Low Light
- Great Zoom
- High Res Viewfinder
- Large Clear LCD
- Nice Body Color
- Short Lag Time
Originally I was hesitant to spend this kind of money on a p & s camera but the FZ200 has more than lived up to the hype. I couldn't be happier with the purchase. It does everything exceedingly well.
One of the best "point and shoot" cameras
There are so many great features on this camera, comparable to the DSLR I had to sell and even some additional ones such as panorama. The grip is comfortable and solid in your hand which is important since this is a light camera, an advantage to me as it makes it easy to carry around on an all day...- Grip is comfortable and solid in your hand
- Larger capacity battery
- Focus and zoom are very good
- Image stabilization is excellent
- Dynamic range is a bit narrow
- Bit of noise - even at lowest ISO 100 and cannot get anything below ISO 100
