Description: Model ID DMC-FZ4EG-S / Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ4EG-S - Digital camera - 4.0 Mpix - optical zoom: 12 x - supported memory: MMC, SD - silver / Panasonic introduces the new LUMIX model 4.0-megapixel DMC-FZ4 with MEGA O.I.S., Optical Image Stabilizer that compensates handshake, ... more
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ4 ... incorporating a newly developed 12x optical zoom lens. The DMC-FZ4 is the heir to the 3.1-megapixel DMC-FZ3, but enhanced its excellence not only with the total number of pixels but also with other innovative technical improvements such as faster AF and various design development on the grip or the position of shutter button, to encourage higher-level shooting with comfortable operation.

The remarkable 12x optical zoom combined with 4x digital zoom magnifies images by as much as 48x and can capture large frames of photo subjects even a long distance away. Furthermore, Panasonic's MEGA O.I.S. assures stability of the magnified image and resolves the problem of blurring when the zoom photography is operated by hand without the assistance of a tripod. Same as the FZ20, the camera is equipped with a LEICA DC VARIO-ELMARIT lens for high resolution imaging with very little distortion. Moreover, the combination of 3 aspherical lenses preserves an astonishingly compact body size even for a 12x optical zoom digital still camera.

The engine, or the brain, driving high picture quality and quick response of the camera is once again the leading-edge image processing LSI Venus Engine II, which boasts excellent resolution in the horizontal and the vertical, in addition to the diagonal. An industry-leading release time lag of 0.006 sec minimum and shutter interval of approx. 0.3 sec minimum, allow you to precisely capture your target subject. What's more, consecutive shooting performance boasts the capability of sequential shots at a rate of 4 frames per sec at full resolution. An unlimited consecutive shooting function allows you to take photos in succession until the memory card or built-in memory is full. The LUMIX DMC-FZ4 is the higher-resolution model out of FZ3, retaining the advantages of compactness and ease, but still satisfying 12x powerful zoom and MEGA O.I.S., to use for every level of users in need of a digital still camera a cut above ordinary ones for shootings of the subject at a distance like child's sports activities.

FS 20 as 3rd camera (195 words)

downtown Jakarta. The shop owner ask me why choose Canon, and he pick The Lumix FS20, please compare your choice with this. And he shoot some pictures with both camera, same setting and compare the pictures, I can clearly see the difference between that two, the lumix have much more clear picture than the other, the noise was better compensated and the lens is better than the canon. With a slightly less price than the Canon. The con of this Lumix is 1. only 4 x zoom compared to 6x; 2. only 10 MP compared to 12.1 MP; 3. battery life is short (I cannot make a full pictures at supplied 2GB SD card); 4. The capability is inferior compared to my Lumix ...

Crowned Review Panasonically Perfect (2302 words)

a price of £245, a reliable website that I have used many a time in the past for a number of different electrical goods. Aesthetically the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 is beautiful, a lovely looking camera and one of the best looking of its kind in fact that I have ever seen. It s all black appearance was greatly alluring for me, and was the reason I looked into the camera further and eventually decided to buy it. For many a year I had wanted to purchase a Nikon SLR, I have long been an admirer of their D40 model and will no doubt one day buy this dream camera of mine, but for the foreseeable future this Lumix is the camera for me. It will be a long time before I m in ...

Crowned Review The bridge from amateur to professional. (819 words)

like the photographers themselves. I gave this one a few weeks run out on the advice of a friend and what sound advice it turned out to be. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18EB-K is not a DSLR camera although it might look like one but it is far more advanced than an average point and shoot digital camera. This type of camera is known as a bridge camera because that s exactly what it is doing, bridging the gap between point and shoot and DSLR. DSLR cameras are completely controlled by the photographer whereas a point and shoot digital camera will have loads of pre-set settings to enable the photographer to get better results without knowing much about the settings.
