Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ8 prices and specs
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ8 was produced on Jan 6, 2014. For now the lowest price for the device is $1,750.14.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ8 belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main benefit is a small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Lumix DMC-SZ8 has different automatic modes but you won't capture photographs of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Lumix DMC-SZ8 can shoot photos at 16 megapixels max resolution. But for better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. The Lumix DMC-SZ8 has a 1/2.33' (6.08 x 4.56 mm) sensor which means that the camera will produce photos with not so high quality as cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Lumix DMC-SZ8 is small. But if you want to capture photos of the professional quality pay attention to Nikon D810.
The Lumix DMC-SZ8 has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which will be enough for making action photos of a very good quality. The owner of the Lumix DMC-SZ8 will be able to shoot HD videos that guarantees a satisfactory image quality.
The lens is built into the Lumix DMC-SZ8 and the photographer won't be able to switch it. The lens provides amazing 12x optical zoom.
Also this camera has Wi-Fi which means that you can easily send photos to the phone or tablet for example. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ8 battery life will be enough to capture up to 200 photos.
