Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200


A megazoom camera that's excellent for both pictures and movies, the FZ200 features a lens and shooting performance that makes it better for shooting indoors than competing models. Definitely for the dad that likes full control over results, but doesn't want to mess with changing lenses.

CNET Editors' Rating

Starting at: $428.98
The good: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200 has an excellent f2.8 25-600mm zoom lens; fast shooting performance, even when shooting in raw or raw plus JPEG; and excellent picture and video quality for its class. It has a ton of shooting options, including full manual for stills and movies. It also has a hot shoe and an audio input socket.
The bad: The FZ200 is expensive, especially if all you're after is a long zoom lens. It doesn't have built-in GPS or Wi-Fi, or a proximity sensor for switching from the LCD to EVF. The SD card slot and battery compartment can't be accessed when the camera is on a tripod.
The bottom line: If you're searching for a long-zoom camera that falls in between a point-and-shoot and digital SLR experience, look no further than the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200.
