Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ4 Review
|
Review Summary
Reader Score: 7.00 (out of 10)
Panasonic is a company that started a little slow in the digital camera market, but have really come on strong in the last year or two. The four megapixel Panasonic FZ4 is largely based on the three megapixel FZ3 model we reviewed in 2004, which at the time was one of the best deals on the market for a camera with anti-shake technology in the long-zoom category. Relative to the FZ3, the Panasonic FZ4 increases image resolution, though not as much does its "big brother," the Panasonic FZ5. The camera keeps the same size LCD as its predecessor and slightly refines the body design. Like its predecessor, the Panasonic Lumix FZ4 offers a 12x Leica zoom lens, incorporating Panasonic's own "Mega OIS" Optical Image Stabilization technology.

| A 12X image-stabilized optical zoom (35mm to 420mm), speedy performance, and above-average image quality are the high points of Panasonic's Lumix DMC-FZ4, the 4-megapixel version of the slightly more advanced DMC-FZ5. A flexible feature set-including full manual exposure, a pared-down Simple mode, and 10 scene selections-addresses the basic needs of enthusiasts and beginners alike. While its sibling, the FZ5, offers a few extras for only $50 more, its performance isn't quite as robust. |
