PANASONIC DMC FZ8

The Panasonic DMC FZ8 is a super zoom camera. It has a 12x optical zoom lens and 7.1 megapixels. With this length of zoom you are likely to find that the built in image stabilisation is a useful feature. Panasonic have included manual exposure and focusing controls with the DMC FZ8. This means that the camera is well suited to someone who is looking for a camera that is a clear step up from a typical point and shoot model.






Style: The DMC FZ8 is shaped like a mini SLR camera. It has a grip on the front that helps you to hold it steady when taking a shot. You can buy either a black or silver model.

Dimensions: 112.5 x 72.2 x 79.0 mm

Weight: 310g

Batteries: Lithium ion. Battery and charger supplied. Panasonic estimates you should be able to take around 380 shots between charges.
