- I was looking for a descent bridge camera for an upcoming trip. I had high hopes for this camera as it was given descent reviews and has a long zoom.I have been using a DSLR digital camera for a long time. The typical weight for my camera bag is about 50lbs... with my super telephoto zoom weighing in at around 13 lbs. So I was really wanting to have something that would work without all the extra gear... and I really wanted an extended zoom.A few things that were below my expectations with this camera:- very small battery which equates to poor battery life- poor image stabilization ... I am used to much better- not good in low light- poor image quality (when examining images there are a lot of aberrations)- mount for quick mount plate covers battery door due to poor design- no easy manual focus.. its electronically controlled and lags- auto-focus constantly misses the targer- using the eye viewer often means your face touches the touch screen and changes the \'targets\'- the UI is a bit awkward- Panasonics supported applications for this phone are lacking- the 55mm thread adapter is virtually useless for filters and adopters.. so no ND or polarizers- there is no microphone jack- panasonics web site in general is kind of poor, and for this camera is really poor- there is no built-in GPS support- there is no support for a remote trigger- using a lens shroud somehow interferes with the operation of the WB and focus- doesnt come with a battery charger (you have to use the camera to charge the battery)- a lot of features, but not a lot of available content (like on-line tutorials from Panasonic and the manual is pretty minimal for the features)Since this is being sold as a bridge camera, simple, inexpensive changes could significantly improve this camera. I love the concept of a point and shoot with a super zoom.. its a shame that the rest of the camera is missing the features that would make this camera really functional for a typical user of a DSLR camera.A few things I do appreciate:- built in flash- WIFI support- super zoom- touch screen- the ability to do post photo zoom adjustment (a kind of cool feature that really needs more CPU and a desktop app)As a DSLR user, it is not uncommon to take something between 1000 and 5000 photos a day on a trip. I am getting around 125 photos on a battery being super careful about power. That is pathetic for this level of camera.A few things that any camera company should seriously consider to get people purchasing cameras instead of using their phones:- take phenomenal photos out of the box- it should be fast... not take seconds to focus.. milliseconds should be the bar- provide deep training on each model camera with streaming video- let people download the video to take with them on trips- build in GPS in the camera. no phone app, no extra device.. this is a cheap technology these days- provide web services that auto-tag the photos using AI technology (like Googles service has)- make sure there are lens adapters for your devoted camera followers to move their investments forward- make sure it has amazing low-light or near IR photo abilities- make sure there are affordable long life/high power batteries.. 3 batteries should shoot 1000+ photosRemember, a camera is competing with cell phones... it needs to be so much better that people will make the effort to carry it on those special occasions... and it needs to perform flawlessly, exceptionally and reliably.This camera works, but it does not hit that bar.
- Bought this for a bucket list trip. I purchased 2 new cameras before the trip. Wish I had allowed more time to get used to all the features this camera provides. The zoom was amazing. Some items were more than 100 feet away. With the 60x zoom was able to see and capture the wonderful details of renaissance paintings, sculptures and fresco ceilings and domes that would not have been with the lighter 16x zoom. I barely touched on all its options and look forward to learning more about the possibilities as I continue to use. The only con is it is heavier than my more previous camera more similar to an old Pentax.
- If you are buying a camera to take places where a heavier, mirrorless or DSLR would be cumbersome, such has hiking in the mountains, this is a good choice. If your desire is to have a superzoom camera that fits both budget and light weight requirements (hiking and travel), this camera is a good choice. If you are expecting exceptional image quality that is competitive with a low-cost mirrorless or DSLR, I recommend the Nikon Coolpix P950 or P1000 models instead, even though both are heavier cameras. While superzoom and control options are this camera\'s strengths, Image quality is a weakness with the DC-FZ80.
- I really like this camera - it seems a great value for the money. (I got it at a sale price, too: $297. That price comes around every so often, and is worth waiting for IMO.)It\'s not top of the line, but it\'s light and very easy to use. The zoom is fantastic. I use to it photograph birds, mostly, and other animals as well - and you can get good images from very far away without scaring them away. Again, not top of the line, but really quite good for the price. The telephoto lens can go bad, I\'ve read, as mine did - after three years it sometimes stopped extending and I have to shut the camera off and on again to make it work. After 4 years and some rough handling by me, it still does work well for far-away subjects, although at this point the wide-angle view is fuzzy around the edges; I bought another one which I\'ll take better care of, and still use the old one to bang around with. I also own a pretty good camera with a good telephoto lens - but this is my day-to-day go-to camera for hiking. I\'m not a pro; just in it for the enjoyment.
