• Excellent camera & excellent value

    The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35 is exceptionally versatile. I am a serious photographer and i was looking because of a quality point & sharpshoot that was more transportable than an slr. This camera has filled this need splendidly. Years ago, i would have needed a bag of lenses and a tripod to get some of the shots that it prosperously took with short effort.

    During a recent trip, i put the image stabilization to the test with extremely low expectations. On a very overcast day, i took several fully zoomed telephoto shots of the landscape (at 12 mp Resolution) from a moving car – on an interstate. Although a few were blurry, most of them came out exceptionally sharp. I was pleasantly surprised how shaft the camera held up under the indicated circumstances, where shooting is usuall impossible.

    Another considerable feature because of me is the filter threads (46 mm) then i can benefir a polarizer on outdoor shots (which is a must because of any serious photographer). This was the only camera in its class to offer threads. With most of the competition, only their slr’s offer this. Additionally, a uv filter is always a good idea to protect your lens.

    There are a few cons, but i consider them to be boy – exceptionally considering the price i paid:
    1) vignetting at whole wide-angle when using a polarizer. Note: i recently solved this puzzle using the the manufacturer recommended polarizer that was made because of this camera (panasonic dmw-lpl46 46mm polarizing filter). I had been using a third party tiffen polarizer, which was much too thick. The panasonic polarizer is linear and not circular, but it works fine & does not influence the autofocus. It’s also a bit pricey, but it’s a safe option.
    2) smallest aperture is f/8. A neutral density filter would be needed to slow-down most waterfall shots.
    3) no bulb setting because of night photography
    4) no hot shoe because of flash
