Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ1000

This premium Panasonic model is equipped with a special ultrazoom lens, has the capability to capture 4K videos and a huge sensor with high pixel density. You can take excellent pictures in poor lighting conditions, from a distance, and add a beautifully blurred background effect was previously available only on SLRs. Its 1" MOS sensor has improved sensitivity to weak lights to delivering clear, sharp images with minimal noise even at ISO 12800. Also, the picture quality has been boosted, thanks to the advanced Venus Engine processor equipped with sophisticated systems for noise reduction and natural colour reproduction. Finally, the HYBRID O.I.S. image stabilisation minimises blurs that could result from camera shake or movement across its five distinct axes.

Staying ahead with the wind

By combining Light Speed AF with DFD (Depth From Defocus) technology, the camera shortens the time required to set the focus to just 0.09 seconds, turns on in 0.66 seconds, and can take a series of images at 12 fps in full resolution. This means you will never miss a unique, one of a kind scene, ever again. With the LUMIX, you are ready to shoot in seconds. Another interesting feature of this camera is its brilliant shutter speed that is designed to capture fast moving objects, people or animals. The mechanical shutter speed is 1/4000 sec, while the electronic one reaches an impressive 1/16000 sec.

Next Generation Video

It is one of the first cameras with the capability to capture 4K videos, which means 4 times more picture details than in the present Full HD standard. You can enjoy the high-resolution video with smooth and fluid motion, or save it to capture photos later. If you want to properly capture some lightning-fast action and see what exactly happened there, you can use the slow-motion video mode, where the camera takes 100 Full HD images every second. Moreover, it can also do the opposite. And with the time-lapse feature, you can capture slowly moving events, such as the changing night sky or the blooming flowers.
