Our Verdict
With the release of the FZ82D, Panasonic has refined one of their most popular all-in-one compact bridge cameras. It comes back with a bang, replacing the previous highly popular model, retaining many of the best features, while adding some new ones and enhancing others in the process. These upgrades enable newcomers to capture high-quality content from a portable and easy-to-use device, which weighs just 640g.
The incredible 60x superzoom lens remains unchanged, offering a full-frame equivalent range of 20mm to 1200mm with a variable aperture of f/2.8-5.9. This allows you to capture wide-reaching landscape photos, urban cityscapes and interiors, right through to distant wildlife, sports, and action, even if they are happening far off in the distance.
Power Optical Image Stabilisation (O.I.S.) helps keep photos and videos sharp and stable, even when shooting at extremely long distances. The FZ82D includes an upgraded viewfinder and LCD screen, both offering significantly higher resolution, enabling you to see the scene ahead even in bright daylight and sunny conditions.
Capturing great photos and videos is further enhanced by the new Zoom Compose Assist feature, which makes it easier to quickly zoom over huge distances while keeping the subject in the frame in order to fine-tune your composition.
If you’ve been looking for a simple, portable, and easy-to-use camera for outdoor adventures, look no further than the compact Lumix FZ82D, which takes an already excellent camera and refines it to make it just that bit better.
If you’re upgrading from a previous model why not consider selling us your old camera and you can use the money against the cost of upgrading to the newer FZ82D.
