Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200

12.1 megapixel, EVF, 24.00x Zoom

It's a rare superzoom camera that features an f/2.8 lens -- especially a Leica-branded 24x zoom lens that maintains that constant max aperture throughout its range. But that's exactly what the Panasonic FZ200 delivers and more. With an equivalent reach of 25-600mm, full-res continuous shooting at 12 frames per second and Full HD 1080p video recording, the FZ200 provides a ton of photographic flexibility to casual photographers and enthusiasts alike.

Released August 2012

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G5

16.1 megapixel, Compact System Camera, 3.00x Zoom

Updating the performance and capabilities of the Lumix G3, Panasonic has improved an already strong performer. A subtle change of button position and functionality makes this compact shooter a standout in the Micro Four Thirds crowd.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3

12.1 megapixel, Compact System Camera, Non-Zoom

Among the smallest of Micro Four Thirds cameras, the Panasonic GF3 is easy to bring along and puts out good quality images at lower ISOs. It struggles a bit to keep up with the competition at higher ISO settings, though. While we liked the smaller size, we didn't as much enjoy the touchscreen interface. Overall, though, we think the Panasonic GF3 is quite a good little camera in the right hands.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF5

12.1 megapixel, Compact System Camera, 3.00x Zoom

In refreshing its modestly-sized, modestly-priced touchscreen mirrorless camera, Panasonic has wisely left the sensor resolution unchanged. Instead, the Panasonic GF5 brings lower noise levels, performance improvements, and some worthwhile improvements to UI and ergonomics.

image of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH2 digital camera

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH2

16.1 megapixel, Compact System Camera, 10.00x Zoom

Though it's still a little big for the compact system camera title, the Panasonic GH2 is distinguished by its fast autofocus for both stills and video, and its Full HD video capability; the built-in EVF, articulating LCD and touchscreen are just gravy.

Released December 2010

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH3

16.1 megapixel, Compact System Camera, Non-Zoom

The Panasonic GH3 marks a huge improvement over the much-beloved GH2, both in still photography and video capabilities, thanks to a brand new 16-megapixel Live MOS sensor and one of the deepest feature sets we've ever seen on a mirrorless, compact system camera. In particular, the GH3 is loaded with professional-level filmmaking features, including full 1080p video at 60fps, bit rates as high as 72 Mbps, and an SMPTE Time Code option, along with nearly a dozen other premium extras you won't find on DSLRs twice its price. To top it all off, the GH3 boasts a more durable, weatherized body than the GH2, and a redesigned interface with plenty of easy-to-access buttons for making changes on the fly.

Released December 2012

Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX1

16.0 megapixel, Compact System Camera, 3.00x Zoom

Easy to carry, yet not too small, the Panasonic GX1 offers a lot to the photography enthusiast who's looking for a compact system camera. It offers compatibility with a growing set of high-quality lenses, and is a lot of fun to use.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS4

12.1 megapixel, Compact, 4.60x Zoom

Offering an excellent set of features in a terrific body design, the Panasonic TS4 is great for snapshots in wet, wild conditions, but it falls short for other uses, thanks to diminishing image quality as you zoom from wide-angle.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS20

14.1 megapixel, Compact, 20.00x Zoom

Though it has an impressive set of features and a presumably decent 20x zoom lens, the Panasonic ZS20 again disappoints in the image quality department. It's better than its predecessor, but not by enough.
