by Cybernium

REVIEW-PANASONIC DMC-FZ50 camera

by terry

Comments:
The Panasonic DMC-FZ50 is a 10 megapixel super-zoom camera with a 35-420mm (film equivalent) Leica lens....

Review Verdict:
The Panasonic is a difficult camera to rate. The lens and image processing are so good and the image stabilisation so effective that you want to love it. And for static images it is hard to beat. For a tourist this could be the ideal camera. But for takin ...

QuickTake:

Pros: The external flash shoe is a useful feature and the swing-out rotating LCD screen is excellent. And that is just as well.

Cons: The electronic viewfinder is pretty dire. Fortunately the LCD viewer is manoeuvrable and of high enough resolution and brightness to serve as a viewfinder most of the time. It doesn't have as many swings and tilts as the Canon S3IS but it is still useful.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50 Digital Camera - Full Review

by Online Shopper

Comments:
Panasonic's Lumix FZ50 takes the company into new territory in terms of resolution, matching the resolution of many popular SLRs, and exceeding their zoom abilities with one very long 12x, 35-420mm Leica zoom. Though the Panasonic FZ50 is as big as an SLR...

Review Verdict:
Panasonic's all-in-one superzoom cameras have garnered very positive reviews from critics and consumers alike over the years, and with good reason. The winning combination of the Lumix line's Leica-branded optical zoom lenses of up to 12x, and Panasonic's ...

Pros: Generous, 12x optical zoom lens, Very quiet, easy-to-adjust manual zoom ring, Effective fly-by-wire manual focus ring, Excellent MEGA O.I.S. feature steadies long-range and low-light shots, Serious, hefty design suggests professional digital SLR, Swivelin

Cons: Heavy chroma noise when shooting above ISO 400, Shots at ISO 400 look okay, but distinctly soft printed at 8x10; shots at ISO 800 are only good for 4x6 prints at best, Early shutter penalty jams up camera if you snap pictures too quickly, Shot-to-shot spe
