About this product
Product Information
Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ50 is a 10.1-megapixel camera with MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) and powerful 12x optical zoom f/2.8 LEICA DC lens.The DMC-FZ50 boasts a 10.1-megapixel high resolution CCD for its image sensor and Venus Engine III for the image processing LSI, making it possible to record an image at max. ISO 1600 high sensitivity setting at full resolution. Furthermore, by dramatically reducing the noise levels, the DMC-FZ50 is able to capture 10.1-megapixel full resolution images even in high sensitivity recording.To fight against the major cause of blurred images, Panasonic invented the MEGA O.I.S. system taking advantage of its superior lens technology to compensate for handshake - a feature, which has long been incorporated into the LUMIX range of cameras. In addition, to also compensate for the other major cause of blurred images - movement of the subject - the FZ50 is also equipped with the Intelligent ISO Control (hereafter I.I.C.) and max. ISO 1600 high sensitivity recording capabilities within the advanced image processing LSI Venus Engine III. When set to the I.I.C., the Venus Engine III detects the subject's movement and adjusts the ISO setting and shutter speed to best suit the subject movement and the light condition automatically. Panasonic's excellent image stabilizing system allows users to take clear, crisp images in any situation automatically, leaving everything to the camera.From a point of view of usability the DMC-FZ50 is equipped with a new Function Button which serves as a shortcut to quickly set frequently-used settings such as recording image size, light metering, AF area, white balance, and ISO sensitivity. Also, thanks to the newly incorporated custom setting function, your frequent setting patterns can be memorized and it can be instantly applied by simply selecting this function with the mode dial. The 2-inch LCD flips out to 180 degrees, making it easier to view even when shooting from high or low angles.The DMC-FZ50 is bound to spark the imagination of high-end users and join the Panasonic LUMIX high-end model lineup.Product Identifiers

Still solid after all these years
The DMC-FZ50 remains a solid camera even after many iterations through the years. Whether it works for you depends only on what it will be used for. If you take mostly still images and don't need low-light performance, this will take very decent pictures (keep the iso value low). The built-in flash works well, and the camera will also accept a shoe-mounted flash. There are a number of choices for these, as Panasonic and Olympus share the same TTL protocol. Add a modern flash and shoot! You won't be disappointed.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great beginner's camera. Impressive image quality.
Easy to use. Features are many, some of which require some trial and error to understand. The FZ series makes the ideal 'point and shoot' camera; it will not fit in your pocket but the trade off is sharp pictures.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
