Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ2000
The Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ2000 is a compact camera whose high-quality photo and video performance makes it suitable for both semi-professional videographers and demanding photographers. The camera has a 20x optical Leica DC Vario-Elmarit zoom lens with a 20.1 Megapixel 1.0" MOS sensor, and it can also record video in stunning 4K quality. The lens features an internal zoom structure for smooth and stable zooming and reduces image shift by 80% compared to the FZ1000. Thanks to a galvanometer drive for the aperture, sudden changes in brightness are tracked accurately, which allows fast and seamless aperture control while zooming.
The Leica DC Vario-Elmarit lens has a maximum aperture of f/2.8-4.5, so you can take razor-sharp photos even with a telephoto lens. The Leica DC Vario-Elmarit lens offers an angle of view that stretches from 24mm wide-angle to 20x optical zoom, while the body stays the same size. The lens construction consists of 16 elements in 11 groups, including 4 ED lenses, 5 aspherical lenses with 8 aspherical surfaces and a UHR lens, which prevents ghosting and flare. This unique technology also delivers beautiful, even background blur with an invisible transition.
With the DMC-FZ2000 you can shoot professional 4K quality videos and ultra-high bitrate Full HD videos at 200 Mbps / 100 Mbps, with no limit on recording time. We do recommend using an SDXC/SDHC memory card that is compatible with UHS Speed Class 3 (U3). The 4K Photo function lets you select a single frame from your videos and save it as a high-resolution image. Thanks to the large 1" High Sensitivity MOS sensor, you capture beautiful images, even in low light. The extended ISO sensitivity of up to 25600 contributes to an impressively shallow depth of field, so you can take the best photos in the most varied conditions.
The DMC-FZ2000 has an OLED Live View Finder with a high resolution of 2360k pixels and a strong magnification of 0.74. With the tilting and swivelling touchscreen you can find unusual perspectives while keeping full control over operation and image composition. You can also focus via the touchscreen and even release the shutter with a single touch.
The grip of the camera provides a stable hold, and the optimal layout of dials, buttons, lever and switches gives you comfortable and user-friendly control for both taking photos and recording video.
