PANASONIC LUMIX FZ18 camera

Comments:
: This is an 8 megapixel all-in-one camera with a Leica-branded zoom lens with a range of 28ââ'¬â€œ504mm. The lens is image stabilised and is fast, f2.8ââ'¬â€œ4.5. It works as a point and shoot, with face detection, but there is also a full range of use

Review Verdict: : This is a good camera and shutter lag is almost a thing of the past. If the standard pre-focus procedure of half-depressing the shutter button is adhered to shutter lag is negligible. It is not as responsive as a DSLR, but fast enough to track moving su

QuickTake:

Pros: : The lens is superb. It has true wide angle and a phenomenal telephoto reach of 504mm (film equivalent). The image stabilisation is effective and hand held photos at full extension are possible. Sharpness and contrast are exemplary and focus, even at ful
Cons: : The Achillesââ'¬â"¢ heel of Panasonic cameras has been image noise and it still is. However, by reducing sharpness and contrast by one notch and dialling in one step of noise reduction we got clean images at ISO200. The companyââ'¬â"¢s claim of usable

Comments:
The Panasonic DMC FZ18 offers an even longer zoom lens than most super zoom cameras (18x). Picture quality is very good and you will also find more than enough features to keep you busy. Well worth a closer look.

Review Verdict: With its super length zoom lens (18x) there is bound to be a lot of interest in the Panasonic DMC FZ18. I was impressed with the photos it took and it is also one of the most feature laden digital cameras you can buy.

Comments:
Panasonic's Lumix DMC-FZ18 builds on the already excellent FZ8 to deliver one of the best super-zooms on the market. We can give or take the extra megapixel and higher ISO settings, but swapping the already powerful 12x zoom for an 18x lens which extends

Review Verdict: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 may cost 50% more than its predecessor but it's still hard not to be impressed. While it no longer offers the same sheer value, it does give you the flexibility of a longer and wider 18x optical zoom with decent stabilisation

Comments:
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 with its 18x zoom lens has one of the widest focal-length ranges we have seen on a bridge camera. But can the 1/2.5in sensor that makes the huge focal-length range possible cope with more than eight million pixels?
