Can't get better than this.

I wanted to buy a camera with full manual control, a versatile lens and full HD video capabilities. I zeroed in on Lumix Fz150 since most reviews compared every camera in the category ( Canon SX-40 HS, Nikon P510, Sony HX200V ) to the Fz150 and it always came on top. I tried all the other three in the stores and none of them felt satisfying at all. I even tried the Canon 550D which didn't satisfy my needs - needed something compact and that I won't hesitate from carrying it around because of...

Best Bridge cam out there, for serious amatures..!!

Hello guys, if you are here to buy a Bridge camera for serious photography and videography, then look no further than this because this is the best bridge cam your money can buy and there are a lot of reasons backing my statement, which I will mention as a comparison to its closest rival, the Canon SX50 HS.

Advantages of the LUMIX FZ200 over Canon SX50 HS.

1. The Leica F2.8 lens, throughout the entire zoom range. - Means there is more light coming in, no quality degradation whatsoever, and ...

The Hottest Bridge Camera- Panasonic FZ200, Believe it!!!

I have recently bought this camera after a lot of thought & research on the internet. The price that it is coming for, rivals entry to mid level DSLRs. Think about it, one can get a Canon 1100D or Nikon 3100D easily at this price. But I strongly feel that the FZ200 sets istelf apart on a number of parameters & betters DSLRs in most of categories with the exception of sensor size. My intial observations after using it for a day are as under:
> Excellent build quality (with the lens hood it loo...

Thorough overall performer - be aware of UHS-1 issues though

I bought this camera for birding which is one of the trickiest kinds of photography around. Its a brilliant device for all sorts of photography though.

Here are some of the best parts -
1) The f2.8 lens is sharp at f2.8 - a rare accomplishment.
2) The camera is brutally fast - AF is quick and sure - I can track birds coming towards me! No visible shutter lag.
3) Very nice EVF - Large, bright, high-resolution

Here is the only negative I have for the camera (I have used it for more than six ...

Why should you buy this camera?

About the camera:
Some of you, who have not done their research yet, may say why should I buy a Panasonic instead of a Nikon or Canon? In that case you are ill-informed. This camera uses a Leica lens, the only one in world to have a constant aperture of 2.8 throughout the zoom range.
As for Leica, I would like to mention that It is the company which pioneered the image stabilization technology. And of course someone as legendary as Henri Cartier Bresson used a Leica camera.
Its a versatile c...

"The Best" Camera for Ameture Photographers, Night Photography, and Travellers

Pros:
------
1. Constant 2.8 aperture across all zoom ranges, which is unique.
2. Superb burst mode at full resolution, best for capturing movements of small children, functions on stage, etc.
3. Crisp clear bright photos with "great depth of field", far far better than Sony DSC-HX200V's "compressed" photos.
4. Best for photography at night or low light or in a cloudy day.
5. The intelligent zoom works as magic.
6. Amazing slow motion video, just try it.
7. Creative shooting modes, without de...

It's a FLAGSHIP camera..!!

People have already shared the PROS and CONS (don't find any :P).
So, I'd like to focus on thinking of most people.

Panasonic might not be a very popular or famous brand when it comes to cameras (Mentality of most people while buying anything - brand!)

But, let me tell you this - when you're buying a flagship model, when you're buying the pioneer in full range F value lens (LEICA), it doesn't matter!

You don't have to think twice before buying this product provided that you're comfortable...

This is the best camera for serious hobbyists. I have awesome results in capturing brilliant Landscapes, macro shots of flowers, distant birds, kids in action, full HD video...
It can practically capture whatever your eyes can see.
I am an avid traveler, and this camera makes sure I never miss any shot.

This is not a replacement for DSLRs, if you are obsessed with image quality, and serious photography better invest in DSLRs and costlier lenses.
