Panasonic Lumix FZ30

Panasonic Lumix FZ30 - Introduction , Just before I packed my notebook and photo equipment to fly to the IFA event in Berlin (check out our IFA 2005 Show Coverage) a package arrived from Panasonic, containing a pre-production sample of the Panasonic FZ30 digital camera. This brand new Panasonic flagship is a pro-consumer model with an 8 Megapixels CCD on board. The Panasonic has a newly developed 12x optical zoom featuring a mechanically linked zoom ring, fully internal zoom and image stabilization. This powerful zoom lens also features a manual focus ring (electronic).

The Panasonic brand is becoming more and more popular among photo enthusiasts. Their engineers are designing interesting innovations which we find in their line of cameras. Today Panasonic's top model is the Panasonic Lumix FZ30, an eight Megapixel advanced digital camera with a powerful 35-420mm (equivalent of a 35mm camera) lens and image stabilization. The following preview gives you a more inside look of the new FZ30 digital camera.
