A bit of a let down compared to Panasonic’s earlier models. If they could fix the camera’s colour response they’d have a winner on their hands, but as it stands this mode isn’t quite up to the high Panasonic standard.
Very good image quality
Sharp Leica 12x optical zoom lens
Image stabilisation
Large 2.5" screen
Joypad allows you to easily and quickly change options (aperture / shutter etc)
Large rubber handgrip
High-resolution / 16:9 video modes
High speed continuo...
Low-resolution screen (114k pixels)
Larger than the FZ5 / FZ3 (although not much)
High noise / high noise reduction at ISO200+ can cause images to look overly processed and like a watercolor painting
Slightly higher than average purple fringing
This is a very good digital camera, a definite improvement over the older Panasonic FZ series digital cameras - with a 6 megapixel sensor, a high quality Leica 12x optical zoom lens, and a 2.5" screen - albeit with a low resolution. The camera has a ve...

Abstract: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 ($399) is the replacement for last years popular DMC-FZ5. The changes on the FZ7 arent terribly dramatic, though all are welcome. Heres a detailed comparison between the FZ5 and FZ7, plus the compact DMC-TZ1 and the hig...
Abstract: Available in silver or black, Panasonics new DMC-FZ7 Lumix camera replaces the popular FZ5 and offers a higher-resolution sensor, larger LCD screen and a redesigned body that is slightly larger and heavier. The electronic viewfinder (EVF) has been rel...
Abstract: Digital camera makers are constantly one-upping each other, either by adding features or lowering cost. Only occasionally do those two variables intersect. But Panasonics DMC-FZ7 puts an array of high end features in a lightweight camera for less than...
Abstract: Panasonics latest addition to its Lumix "super zoom" line is the six-megapixel DMC-FZ7. This compact and lightweight camera features a high-quality Leica DC VARIO-ELMARIT 12x optical zoom (equivalent to 35mm to 430mm on a 35mm film camera) with Panaso...
Léger et compact pour un zoom 12x, Enfin, un mode vidéo 640 x 480 pixels, Disponible en couleur argent et noir, Très simple à utiliser, Bonne autonomie : donné pour 320 photos (Batt. LiIon 710 mAh)
Bruit fort dès 200 ISO, Lent à la mise sous tension, 36 mm seulement en grand angle, Résolution faible de l'écran LCD, C'est un faux mode vidéo 848 x 480 : en fait un 640 x 480 étiré
C'était déjà l'un de nos gros zooms préférés : sa stabilisation est efficace, ses images sont précises, les couleurs sont vives... On l'aime encore plus depuis que Panasonic a revu son prix très à l...
Excellent resolution & sharp results, Good, natural color and excellent exposure, Superb 12x optical zoom, Effective image stabilization, Small and light, but well built, Comprehensive range of controls, Very fast operation, Very fast (and accurate) focus...
Higher than average Noise at ISO 80, Strong color noise at ISO 200+, Mild Chromatic aberration and corner softness in macro mode, Mild vignetting at widest zoom setting / widest aperture, New LCD is bright, but resolution is lower, Occasional focus huntin...
Over the last few years weve been spoilt - cameras have seen huge leaps in capabilities from one generation to the next, whilst at the same time prices have steadily been falling. I think its safe to say that for the time being weve got to accept t...
