We’ll be honest with you and say that we liked the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 pretty much, for what it is: a camera which boasts shooting speed and photo quality, which the beginner photography enthusiasts coming from point-and-shoot want. And all that in a significantly smaller body in comparison to dSLR and along with a user interface which is familiar to the users. But when the camera actually entered the market, we heard a lot of buyers upset about it as they were looking for an actual heir in the GF series. The aspiring customers where bothered about the slightly bigger size of the camera in replace of a hot shoe and physical mode dial. Well, it seems as if Panasonic heard all those peevishness as well or may be this was always their primary plan. Whatever would have been the case, the  [...]

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ150 is the successor of Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-FZ100, and while we liked its precursor completely, there was one thing that stopped us from recommending this camera to our readers, and that thing was: its photo quality. This is why when we heard that the Lumix DMC-FZ150 has been given a brand new imaging processor and sensor; we had built some expectations from it. The main issue the Lumix DMC-FZ100 was that the JPEG processing of Panasonic for the photos captured above ISO 200, which delivered soft smeary niceties and yellow mottle generated by noise. Now, it’s never nice to see that in a camera, but when a camera priced at $500 does that it becomes even worst. The brand new Lumix DMC-FZ150 comes with a new 12 MP MOS sensor (cut down from 14 MP), which according  [...]

Now, don’t consider this as a disappointment, because the 24x optical zoom camera has an extensive focal range equal to 25-600 millimeter, and all that on a old film camera, which means that this camera is being classified as a ‘super zoom'. The lens here makes the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ48 a useful camera for picturing landscapes as for lock up portraits and the zoom of the camera could also be used while recording videos. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ48 could record high definition video at 720 pixel resolutions, and the camera also boasts a separate record button for recording video. The separate

The first thing that you’ll notice in the camera is the stereo microphone placed on the top of the camera along with a glistening red button, which has a movie camera icon imprinted on it. the button urges to use it as soon as you gets the camera in your hand.

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 comes with so many things to like about that the very few, but serious flaws that it has comes as larger distractions. On the positive side, the camera retains the really nice design of the GF1, but comes with a superbly designed touch-screen interface, and betters the already fast performance of the camera. Also if you shoot raw, the camera can deliver really nice quality images. But at the same time the camera suffers from two major flaws: firstly the camera comes with the same deprived JPEG processing engine which also caused problems in the LX5 and also had the same tantrum-inducing inability for locking the focus area on its touch screen, as we saw on the GH2 and G2. Design: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 flaunts an immensely easy  [...]
