## Description

Product Description               Panasonic DMC-FZ72 Lumix Bridge CameraContinuing to push boundaries of optical excellence is the award winning and well renowned FZ series of cameras - the DMC-FZ72. This Lumix bridge camera comes equipped with an outstanding focal range with a 20mm ultra wide-angle lens and the industry’s highest 60x optical zoom*. Also included is Panasonic's latest generation of Optical Image Stabilisation for both photo and video mode. A high resolution Electronic Viewfinder, Full manual control, Stereo wind-supressed microphone and Full HD video mode go together to make this camera a superb all-rounder for the beginner or enthusiast alike.*For a consumer compact camera as of 18/07/13 Capture amazing shots with its 60x Zoom range view largerKey FeatureAt its time of launch the FZ72 offered the longest zoom range of all digital compact cameras. A massive 60x zoom lens covers all focal lengths from 20mm to 1200mm, in 35mm equivalent terms. This means you get three times more shooting area when shooting wide angle than a 35mm camera and it brings objects twice as close as our previous best bridge camera (600mm, FZ62).Photo QualityNew 16.1 Megapixel High Sensitivity/Low Noise MOS SensorPanasonic's 16 megapixel MOS sensor offers a 10-15% reduction in the block noise that becomes evident when shooting at high ISO settings (compared with previous model FZ62). In combination with a Venus Engine noise reduction system, it delivers more pleasing low-light shots whilst still supporting Full HD video recording, high-speed burst shooting and a 3D mode. Essential stabilisation for all shooting situations view largerImproved Power O.I.S. with Active Mode for VideoPower O.I.S. is about twice as effective as our conventional Image Stabilisation system at reducing low-frequency vibration-caused blur. It is especially useful when using slow shutter effects or shooting night scenes and is now optimised for the high zoom of the FZ72. With the option of Active mode available during movie recording, videoing from a moving vehicle or while walking is also more precise.Fastest Auto Focus - "Light-speed" AFFast focus is a must when you don't want to miss the moment of a lifetime. None come faster in a compact camera than the lightning fast 0.1 seconds of Lumix. Borrowed from the technology used in our Lumix G system camera, the incredibly fast focus speed is due to the double speed readout from the sensor when the shutter button is half pressed.Professional Quality RAW Mode ShootingFor the ultimate control over picture quality RAW shooting mode is provided just like a professional camera. Shooting in Raw requires large capacity memory cards as each photo image can be up to 8x larger in file size than when shooting in JPEG. A Raw file contains the full uncompressed data that is captured by the image sensor. Capture high speed action with a rapid sequence of still pictures view largerPremium FeaturesAmazing 120x Intelligent ZoomNot only does the FZ72 offer a huge 60x zoom lens but also includes a clever combination of optical and digital technology to get you even closer to your subject. The powerful image processing of the Venus engine means that a high quality image can be created from the telephoto lens that is equivalent to an incredible 120x zoom image (twice the optical zoom limit).9 Frames per Second High Speed Burst ShootingHigh-speed burst shooting, up to 9 frames per second at full resolution (max 3 images), is possible. Even 5 frames per second with AF Tracking is available enabling you to capture high speed action with a sequence of still pictures that are sharp and defined. Functionality and Ease of UseHigh Resolution 3.0 Inch (7.5cm) LCD with High Brightness ModeA high resolution (460,000 dots) Liquid Crystal Display is offered with a 3.0 inch viewing area that works well in bright light due to the Auto Brightness sensor that automatically increases brightness by up to 40% when in sunny conditions.Built-in Electronic Colour ViewfinderA full colour, electronic viewfinder is built-in for monitoring the image from the sensor. Offering 100% field-of-view, it enables accurate composition of your photos with the camera held close to the face in the traditional camera shooting style.iA (Intelligent Auto) Shooting Mode with iA PlusiA mode helps you take the picture without you having to worry about what settings to use. The camera intelligently works out the type of scene that you are trying to capture from a number of pre-set programmes. iA+ allows you to add an element of your own creative control where you can experiment with the overall look of the shot before you take the picture. The top mode dial offers manual options for still picture or video use view largerCreative Shooting ControlsFull Manual Control Options Including Manual FocusManual setting of focus, aperture or shutter speed are normally reserved for Digital SLR style cameras, so having such creative control on a compact camera is a real advantage and a valuable asset. The manual control dial and focus button are conveniently placed on the top of the camera providing control over photo or video recording.Extensive Creative Effects for RecordingAny one of 15 creative filter effects can be selected before taking your shot. These effects: Expressive, Retro, High Key, Sepia, High Dynamic, Miniature effect, Toy Effect, Low Key, Star Filter, One-point Colour, Dynamic Monochrome, Soft Focus, Impressive Art, Cross Process and Old Days gives you the expressive power to turn ordinary situations into highly special scenes.Creative Re-touch for PlaybackSome of the creative filter effects that are available before taking your picture are also available to add to your shot after you have captured it. You can decide whether effects like Sepia, High Key or Dynamic Monochrome add an interesting new look to your shot, and apply the effect to the original picture after you have reviewed it.Creative Panorama Shooting Mode with Filter EffectsIn addition to the Panorama shooting mode that allows you to capture ultra-wide vistas in a single image, up to 13 filter effects can be applied making your panoramic image even more interesting. New microphone with windshield structure - powerfully blocks wind noise Video CapabilitiesFull HD Video Mode with AVCHD RecordingWhen shooting video for playback on a Full HD TV, AVCHD 1080 offers amazing high quality recording. Video captured on the camera's SD card can be played back directly on a Panasonic Viera Full HD TV by putting the card in the SD slot on the TV.MP4 Full HD Video Recording Mode for High CompatibilityAlso offered in video mode is MP4 (H.264) format recording. High Definition video including 1920x1080 can be shot at 25 Progressive frames per second. MP4 format is compatible with many video editing software packages, but is also compatible with iTunes for playback on smartphone or tablet devices.Stereo Sound Recording with New Windshield Zoom MicThe FZ72 incorporates a newly developed stereo microphone with windshield structure that powerfully blocks most of the noise from background wind. The high-sensitivity mic also improves the S/N ratio resulting in a more accurate sound reproduction.ExtrasExternal Flash Option with Hot Shoe TerminalIn addition to the built-in pop-up flash, a hot shoe is provided for the use of an optional, more powerful external flash.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a great camera!
*by C***S on 24 August 2015*

Looking for a high zoom bridge camera for around £200? Then you can't go wrong with this camera. It does everything it says and the image quality is great. The zoom is fantastic, I took some pictures of the moon at full zoom without a tripod and they are truly amazing - I can see where the Clangers live! The image stabiliser really does work hard to produce clear images and you can flip the camera into manual mode and easily adjust the aperture and speed on the fly to get some really great images and effects. The menu is in the usual easy to use Lumix style and there are enough settings and features to enable some really individual and impressive looking images to be produced.I own a range of other cameras from DSLR's to simple point and shoots, this camera, given it's wide range of features and the ability to zoom from 20mm wide angle to 60x, means that it's now my most used camera.I love photography but I don't get hung up by looking too technically into the specifications, if it takes stunning and exciting images then that's enough for me. This camera delivers on all fronts - great value for money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a FZ45 and it was great, the FZ72 is even better !
*by M***. on 25 April 2014*

I just loved my FZ45- it was a great bridge camera. I started off using it as a "point and shoot" on auto, and quickly moved onto fully manual operation as the camera design made it so easy. It took some amazing images.I sold it on as I was looking for a bridge camera with a further telephoto reach ie.. The FZ72.The FZ72 is a newer version of the FZ45 but with better optics and more functions. I thought the FZ45 was great, but this is just amazing. The quality of the camera and the images it takes are as good as my Nikon D7100 and you don't need to change lenses !I use this camera in support of my D7100, for when I am out doing landscapes with a wide angle lens, I have the FZ72 in case there is a immediate opportunity arises that needs a variable reach lens and I don't have time to change lenses. On both cameras I am shooting in RAW and the quality is the same for both. The FZ45 is also handy for MACRO shots and has a nice big 55MM lens that opens wide. At the wide end the camera has a 20mm focal length and 1200mm at the other end - WOW ! I also use a conversion lens with this camera ( LT55) and this takes the zoom out to X120 ie. doubles the distance. There is a setting on the camera for this - its called "conversion" and works for macro and telephoto. Think what a DSLR would have to do to achieve distance, and also the costs involved for expensive tele zoom lenses.The only thing wrong with the camera is its limited aperture range, it only goes up to F8. but for some reason this doesn't affect the operation of and the final result coming from the camera. This camera as far as I am concerned is a winner, that's why its my second one. I would recommend this camera for beginners and enthusiasts alike.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for getting shots of birds at 60-120 zoom
*by G***H on 24 June 2015*

Excellent for getting shots of birds at 60-120 zoom. Bit pixilation on some shots in low light on full zoom which is noticeable when the image is full size. Doesn't do close up shots very well I.e. Insect on a flower as the auto focus has trouble with it and my mobile camera does a better job of those shots. However good for wide angle scenery shots. The software makes it easy to get photos off the memory card which you have to buy separately. The software allows you to extract stills from the video you take on it as well. However for any fancy editing your going to want a separate photo package beyond that it's a good camera for your money as your buying it for the zoom.I just used the iA setting and let the camera do the work. However I have found the macro zoom off one of the other dial settings but It's just a x3 zoom. This is supposed to be for extreme close ups but I still think my Nokia Lumia 620 is better for them.
