The Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS30 (Lumix DMC-TZ40) belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The camera is equipped with various automatic modes but you won't capture pictures of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Lumix DMC-ZS30 (Lumix DMC-TZ40) can take pictures at 18 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better image quality the more important thing is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the model will make pictures with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Lumix DMC-ZS30 (Lumix DMC-TZ40) has portable size. But if you want to produce pictures of the best quality check Pentax K-1.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/1200 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway the owner of the camera will be able to shoot pictures of moving subjects. The camera captures high quality videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is built into the Lumix DMC-ZS30 (Lumix DMC-TZ40) and the camera owner won't be able to change it. The lens has amazing 20x optical zoom.
Also this device has Wi-Fi which means that the Lumix DMC-ZS30 (Lumix DMC-TZ40) owner can back up shots to a cloud service for example. The camera even has built-in GPS that will allow you to pinpoint the location where the pictures were made. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS30 (Lumix DMC-TZ40) battery life will be enough to capture approximately 260 pictures.
