The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Pros:All-in-one camera; sufficiently compact; good overall quality for a 1" sensor; good AF response, always referring to the type of camera;
Cons:feeling of "plasticity"; slowness in the ignition response; viewfinder resolution not excellent; limits of small sensors (but applies to all 1"); high iso "full scale" more façade than really usable
Opinion:Purchased used not without a bit of skepticism, for when you just can't / want to bring cameras with larger sensors. The advantages are obvious, practically everything is done with very limited dimensions and costs. The overall image quality is very good in the iso 100-1600 range, then you have to deal with the limitations of the sensor. Convincing sharpness even at major focal lengths, I also tried some shots of birdlife with good satisfaction. The high ISO available are not very realistic, maximum 3200 but with many reservations: better to take advantage of the brightness of the optics or risk longer times than the rules, the stabilizer does its job well. The plasticity of the resulting images - important for certain genres, not for all - is evidently lower than that of larger formats. Perhaps the biggest limitation that emerged (I kept it and used it a few months, then I traded it in) also coincides with the biggest advantage: does it do practically everything? Yes. Does it do it right? Lil I realize that this is a limit for all bridge cameras; I knew it when I bought it and used it. Then, in the "experience" and without reproaching anything to this excellent camera (in its kind) I decided to bring with me tools that may not be able to deal with all genres, but what they do they do it at the top.
Opinion:Awesome machine. I also had the previous model (which I sold looking for something I couldn't find...) It has everything you need with a magnificent lightness. The lightness should not deceive because the quality of the construction is excellent and robust. Very fast and precise in focusing, very fast zoom The stabilization is exceptional and the videos are impeccable (perhaps here you can see the Panasonic contribution). The photos are exceptional for sharpness and three-dimensionality. I think I will keep it for a very long time. I am a professional photographer and often use his black and white for my services.
