Product features

• All you need for the perfect shot
  In addition to its remarkable optical zoom power of 30x, this camera features a large number of manual functions to boost your creativity, such as a LVF (Live View Finder), a control ring, RAW compatibility, and focus peaking, all in an ultra-compact body. This enables highly detailed shooting that covers everything from ordinary snapshots to travel scenes
• 30x optical zoom in ultra compact body
  Crystalising its optical technologies, Panasonic succeeded in integrating 24 mm ultra wide-angle 30x zoom lens in slim, flat body. It lets you capture a variety of scenes from dynamic landscapes to people or animals distant away.
• Built-in Live View Finder
  This camera comes equipped with a 0.2-inch LVF (Live View Finder) with 200K-dot equiv. resolution and 100% field of view. It ensures stable framing and high visibility of live view images even at high magnification and under strong sunlight. As an option, it can be set to 60 fps to smoothly display fast-moving subjects.
• HYBRID O.I.S.+ and level shot function
  The HYBRID O.I.S.+ for video recording with 5-axis correction detects and effectively compensates for the camera's 5 types of movement - horizontal, vertical, axis of rotation, vertical rotation and horizontal rotation. The Level Shot Function detects the horizontal line of the recording image and keeps it even if the camera is tilted. It lets you take stable video even in blind recording such as shooting from high angle.
• Easy Wi-Fi connection with NFC/QR code
  This camera integrates Wi-Fi connectivity with NFC technology to enjoy flexible shooting and instant image sharing with easy operation. You can connect the camera with a smartphone / tablet by just placing them nearby and follow the simple guidance. Setting-up is extremely easy and finishes within a few seconds. Even if a smartphone / tablet is incompatible with NFC, it can be easily connected to the camera by just scanning the QR code displayed on the camera monitor.
• 18.1-megapixel high sensitivity MOS sensor
  The 18.1-megapixel high sensitivity MOS sensor is integrated in the camera to realize both high quality image recording and high speed signal processing. The superior NR (Noise Reduction) system in the Venus Engine enables noise reduction to take place without missing low-frequency noise in its large detection area. It results in the high sensitivity image recording even at ISO6400 (extended).
• High speed response
  High speed digital signal output technology is integrated to realize high speed consecutive shooting and full-HD video recording. It lets you shoot 10 fps in 18.1-megapixel full resolution with mechanical shutter and 5 fps with continuous AF. The actuator for the AF lens motor achieves 240 fps high speed AF drive, resulting in higher speed AF by approx. 20% at wide and 30% at tele end. It also contributes to the quick start-up and light speed AF to catch the most fleeting shooting opportunities.
• Unique filter effects photos and videos
  With a variety of filter effects, creative control lets you add artistic and original expression to photos and videos. Creative panorama function allows you to create dynamic vertical / horizontal panoramic photo with a unique touch just by swiveling the camera.
• Control ring
  Manual control is easy to try thanks to the control ring, which enables direct, intuitive control over frequently used settings: zooming, aperture, shutter speed, and filter of creative control. Manual focusing is also available with smooth control ring operation.
• Manual focus/focus peaking
  For more precise control over focusing, this camera incorporates a Focus Peaking function that shows the peak of focus in MF mode. You can see the peaking of focus while monitoring the subject in live view. You can also take advantage of this function when controlling the camera with a smartphone / tablet via Wi-Fi in both photo/video recording.
• Level gauge
  The level gauge lets the camera detect the horizontal/ vertical angle of view aiding you to create a level composition.
• 1920 x 1080p Full-HD video recording in AVCHD and MP4 format
  This camera can record high-resolution full-HD 1,920 x 1,080 60p (for NTSC area)/50p (for PAL area) videos in AVCHD progressive (MPEG-4/H.264) format. Featuring the progressive full-HD video recording capability, subjects with fast motion or fine details are reproduced even more clearly.
• 30x optical zoom in video recording
  The powerful 30x optical zoom with 2-step zoom function is available in video recording. The advanced image stabilizer HYBRID O.I.S.+ is integrated to suppress hand-shake vibration effectively even in shooting using high zoom. The level shot function detects the horizontal line of recording image and keeps it even if the camera is tilted. It lets you take stable video even in blind recording such as shooting from high angle.
• High speed video 120 fps/100 fps in HD
  You can record high-speed videos at 120 (for NTSC area)/100 (for PAL area) fps in HD quality. You can capture scenes that can't be seen with the naked eye, and play them back in dramatic slow motion.
• Stereo microphone
  Incorporating a stereo zoom microphone, the videos also come with the high-quality stereo sound of Dolby Digital, to offer highly realistic sound to the video. Mechanical noise caused by a zooming operation is suppressed to improve the clearness. Also, the Auto Wind Cut function is available to block out most of the noise from background wind automatically making the human voice to stand out.
• GPS and GLONASS
  The GPS (Global Positioning System) in the camera complies with GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite System) to further enhance its detection accuracy for its increased number of satellites. Integrating the GPS function, it shows the name of the Country/Region, State/Prov., County/Township, City/Town/Village and Landmark using the internal data to give you real-time information of the place when taking photos to add fun of photo shooting during travel.
• iA (Intelligent Auto)/iA Plus mode
  For beginners, iA (Intelligent Auto) mode supports taking beautiful pictures with a variety of shooting-assist functions including i-Food mode and Intelligent Handheld Nightshot. The iA Plus mode lets you adjust defocusing area in the background, exposure compensation and white balance for more flexible control.
• 3.0-inch 920k-dot monitor
  The 3.0-inch large 920K-dot monitor assures high visibility in any lighting conditions, which is excellent for both shooting and playing back images.
