First class compromise
I'm a fan of Lumix bridge cameras and have owned every model since the FZ20. Each one has grown in power and functionality, whilst retaining consistency of look and feel and never sacrificing simplicity for features. The recent addition of video is a good example.
Great Camera..
I decided to buy this camera after reading many reviews in the Internet. It is a good high zoom camera with F 2.8 aperture in 25-600 mm range.Other features I like are High speed HD movie recording and Raw support. Very good quality pictures. Infibeam delivered it on time.
An easy to use, what I call, idiot proof camera. Takes awesome pictures.
Awesome camera! Picture quality is fabulous even in low light conditions (even without flash). While I haven't yet learned to use all of it's applications, I have been very impressed with both the wide angle & zoomed photos that I have taken.
Worth waiting for this camera
Casual photographer & like the reach of this camera. Works well in low light. Recommend printing out the advance features of the camera. Manual is "sketchy". As with many camera manuals, barely adequate however an all around winner. Abt is a joy to use-quick and painless.- Fast/accurate auto-focus
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- Good in Low Light
- Great Zoom
- Large Clear LCD
- Nice Body Color
- Short Lag Time
- Small / Compact
- Manual Very Basic
- Patience Is A Virtue
- There is a learning curve
Love my camera! Thanks Abe's of Maine!

- Fast/accurate auto-focus
- Good Image Quality
- Good Image Stabilization
- Good in Low Light
- Great Zoom

Panasonic Lumix FZ200
Superzoom cameras have been stretching zoom capacities for years, but it looks as though Panasonic's latest Lumix FZ200 has taken a different approach: it's opted to maintain its predecessor's 24-600mm equivalent zoom, but now offers an f/2.8 aperture throughout the whole range.- An f/2.8 aperture throughout zoom range
- 24-600mm equivalent range is significant
- vari-angle screen
- decent battery life
- raw file capture available
- It's big
- at more than ￡500 it is pricey
- no touchscreen
- viewfinder refresh rate on the low side (makes it a bit juddery)
- no display of AF/MF on rear screen
- mic input is 2.5mm not 3.5mm
Brilliant Bridge Camera
I have owned many cameras and currently use 3 inc this one from a small compact up to a semi prof DSLR outfit. This camera was purchased to replace my ageing HS20exr. All round this is an excellent camera.- Excellent image quality
- Great Lens
- Wonderful Screen
- Lots of features
- Great Video Capabilities
- Viewfinder too small
An excellant choice
Bought this product 7 days back after lots of research online. I am more than 100% satisfied with the product as still images are very very crisp with vibrant colors (particularly on a large screen LED tv) though some noise at iso more than 400 is noticeable but there is no need to go beyond that.
Great Almost-A-DSLR
I purchased this camera as an upgrade to my Lumix FZ20K (5MP, 12x zoom), which I have owned for 7+ years. Like the FZ20K the FZ200 maintains a fast F2.8 throughout its zoom range, only this new one is has a 24X zoom at 12MP.- Great zoom range from 25mm (35mm film equivalent) wide-angle to 600mm telephoto
- Lens sharpness is great throughout range
- Lots of creative features
- Battery has really good life
- Accepts 52mm filters
- Manual focus with the electrical slider switch on the side of the lens is a little tricky
- I would have preferred a mechanical focus ring like on my older Lumix FZ20K
- Also slider switch can be set to adjust zoom or focus.
good camera, good price
I owned an earlier version of the lumix and was impressed by the quality of the lens and the resulting image. The Leica lens is special, it's not just hype. I read reviews on the fz200, was impressed and looked for a good price from a major supplier - that turned out to be Office Depot.- value
- Quiet
- Performance
- leica lens
- no room for thumb
