In the
midst of fierce competition among mirrorless camera with DSLR cameras,
Panasonic apparently remained consistent to develop the kind of prosumer
digital camera. That's why Panasonic launched the Panasonic Lumix FZ1000. It
could be said that this camera is a blend of super-zoom bridge camera with
quality in all aspects, especially the picture quality and a variety of
features to produce photographs and excellent video quality, and FZ1000 answer
these challenges, other brands can also be a rival.
It turns
out that Panasonic has succeeded in getting the recipe and the solution: bright
and high-quality optics, large 1-inch sensor. Not to mention the ability to
shoot 4K video and the focus DFD which debuted on mirrorless Panasonic GH4. The Lumix
FZ1000 exhibits very good results in absolute terms, which may well be considered
to be excellent if we take into account that originate in a compact fixed lens.
Panasonic Lumix
FZ1000 is a new family of superzoom cameras with fixed lens features a
generously sized sensor (1 inch, as the direct rival Sony RX10). The FZ1000 is
an ideal compromise between critical factors and in some ways opposites such as
focal length, sensor size and optics. It uses a generous 1-inch sensor.

The FZ1000
is armed with the latest generation of advanced features, such as support for
4K video, and the system focus DFD, that exceeds the most obvious focus for
phase detection. In fact, in many respects closely resembles the mirrorless GH4
the same Panasonic, which, for a compact, is not just a virtue.
The Lumix
FZ1000 is also equipped with a generous resolution of 20.1 megapixel, and and
of course and of course, Panasonic remain loyal to give you a high-quality lens
from Germany, a Leica DC Vario-Elmarit 1: 2.8-4 / 9.1-146mm ASPH, 16x zoom
equivalent to 25-400mm, with a maximum aperture of f / 2.8-4. Anyway, Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 is a superzoom prosumer camera.
If you are
a photographer who wants to transform into a professional filmmaker or
videographer, the Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 is the right tool for you. Why? The
two most striking are the ability to shoot video Ultra HD 4K 25p (or Full HD
video up to 100 fps) and the technology focus DFD (Depth From Defocus) . Two
significant changes that have debuted on the little mirrorless GH4, and is now
calling on a compact, at a price even more attractive: the list is about a
little less than 900 Euro, but is already online at about 750 Euro.
The FZ1000
is based on a new CMOS sensor 20.1 Mpixels and 1 inch diagonal , which
characterizes enormously this product. It is over 4 times larger than the
classical 1 / 2.3 "typical compact / bridge, so it is expected that the
signal / noise ratio much more favorable, as compared to the Micro Four Thirds
format mirrorless Panasonic, the area is useful almost halved (about 1.8 times
lower). The new quad-core Venus Engine, which provides the power
needed for sophisticated processing noise, allows the FZ1000 to offer a
maximum sensitivity of 12,800 native ISO , which can reach ISO 25,600
extension.

The most
credible rival the Lumix FZ1000 today is the Sony RX10, which is also based on
1-inch CMOS sensor and 20 megapixels of resolution (20.2, to be exact). The
Sony model provides an aperture f / 2.8 constant, but with a zoom range which
is only (about) half: 24-200mm equivalent.
In addition, the most recent
Panasonic is more powerful, has a higher resolution viewfinder display and a
rear articulated more flexible, 4K video, and costs less. The Sony model is
offered today at $ 999, and about 100 Euro gap on the price list are retained
on the street price. What do you think?
If you are
looking for a new prosumer camera with 4K video recording capability, the
Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 is the right choice. The Lumix FZ1000 is a new bridge,
from compact-system camera into a DSLR camera. By having this camera, you do
not need to carry a heavy DSLR camera, and has a large size. It is obvious that
prosumer camera is the right choice for adventure and holiday around the world, and
convenient to use for social and business events.
