Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 incorporates an impressive 12x optical zoom (equivalent to 36-432mm on a 35mm film camera) with a fast, f/2.8 aperture right through the range. The combination of three aspherical lenses and one ED lens generates high optical performance while preserving the compact size. Thanks to the effective optical image stabilizer, the full zoom range can be used even for hand-held shots, making this camera a great photographic tool.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Bargain of the year, 14 Oct 2004
    By SD Pinnington "SD Pinnington" (Bristol) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I researched long and hard before choosing a replacement for my Finepix S5000 which was damaged recently. All the magazines I read and web based reviews suggested that the FZ10 was the best camera on the market, but when I saw that it had been replaced by the FZ20, I decided to take the plunge and go for the newer model instead. I can safely say I haven't been disappointed. It is not quite as user friendly as the Finepix, but once you have got used to it, the results are nothing short of superb. Better still, if you shop around, you can get it a lot cheaper than it appears on Amazon. I paid £350 which included a 256k card and p&p. Have Amazon stopped listening to us when we e-mail them and tell them that products are available cheaper elsewhere? I told them about three other cameras that I found for £50 less and the prices have still not changed. Use Kelkoo before buying anything!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Beginner to semi professional, 18 Jan 2005
    I am amazed, this is the best camera i've had to date. I thought the Konica kz400 gave good shots, but the DMC-FZ20 is even better. And with 5 megapixals, unless you take photos professionally, this camera is all you'll need.
    One thing I can't work out, Why was this camera so difficult to get hold of? It's excellent, it should be fully available.
    I won't bore you with the technical details because they at the top of the page, but if you can get one of these; you won't be disappointed.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Lots to learn, 29 April 2005
    By Mr Mark A Robinson (Williton, Somerset United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
    This camera is my first step beyond "point and shoot" photography. Having no experience to guide me, I read the reviews and went for the FZ20 with fingers crossed. I need not have worried, this one very impressive camera. I am slowly getting to grips with the various function but just using auto everything gives superb results. The 12x zoom is amazing, the image stabilizing works fine in good light although a tripod looks to be worth having for less than perfect conditions. The macro function is going to provide endless entertainment, it opens up a whole new area, shooting bugs, flowers,whatever. The image quality is way beyond my expectations.
    My only gripe is the instruction book. I'm sure it is quite adequate for someone with more experience but as a beginner I could have done with a simpler step by step guide with less initils and abbreviations. Its all very well knowing how to adjust exposure, aperture or whatever, what I need to know is when and why.
    Overall I would recomend the FZ20 to anyone at my experience level. Those who know what they are doing should probably read other reviews!
