Title: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50 Review
Verdict: If you want a DSLR-like camera, without it actually being a true DSLR, then the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50 is for you. It's one of a handful of compact digital cameras with a 12x zoom lens, offering a versatile focal range of 35-420mm that will more than sa

Cons: Heavy chroma noise when shooting above ISO 400, Shots at ISO 400 look okay, but distinctly soft printed at 8x10; shots at ISO 800 are only good for 4x6 prints at best, Early shutter penalty jams up camera if you snap pictures too quickly, Shot-to-shot spe
Verdict: Panasonic's all-in-one superzoom cameras have garnered very positive reviews from critics and consumers alike over the years, and with good reason. The winning combination of the Lumix line's Leica-branded optical zoom lenses of up to 12x, and Panasonic's

Verdict: The Panasonic Lumix FZ50 camera is already Panasonic's fourth FZ10-series Megazoom camera, the FZ40 never existed. It has to be said the step from FZ20 to the FZ30 was quite a leap indeed. The step to the Lumix FZ50 isn't quite as large, yet every bit as

Pros: Great quality lens with massive 12x range, Optical Image Stabilisation, Flip-out and twistable screen, Great build quality and manual control,
Cons: Noise levels high even at low sensitivities, Smearing from noise reduction

Title: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50
Verdict: At $640, the Panasonic doesn't quite encroach on DSLR territory, but if you want a camera with SLR-like handling and control it's worth spending the extra on Canon's 400d or Nikon's D40x. Of course, the FZ50 wins out for its bigger zoom and ability to sho
Summary: Good quality and with a proper li-ion battery, but expensive and bulky compared to the Olympus.

Title: REVIEW-PANASONIC DMC-FZ50 camera
Pros: The external flash shoe is a useful feature and the swing-out rotating LCD screen is excellent. And that is just as well.
Cons: The electronic viewfinder is pretty dire. Fortunately the LCD viewer is manoeuvrable and of high enough resolution and brightness to serve as a viewfinder most of the time. It doesn't have as many swings and tilts as the Canon S3IS but it is still useful.
Verdict: The Panasonic is a difficult camera to rate. The lens and image processing are so good and the image stabilisation so effective that you want to love it. And for static images it is hard to beat. For a tourist this could be the ideal camera. But for takin
Summary: The Panasonic DMC-FZ50 is a 10 megapixel super-zoom camera with a 35-420mm (film equivalent) Leica lens.

Pros: Stunning lens, Good range of creative features, Gorgeous movie mode
Cons: Image quality not on SLR levels
Verdict: Another area where the FZ50 feels more like an SLR than a compact is in its displays. Two inches is positively Lilliputian for an LCD these days, although its fold-out action does at least give you the chance to frame candid shots - or even shoot round co
Summary: The FZ50 definitely has professional aspirations, with its tough, grippy, black plastic body, fronted by a hefty 12x zoom lens
