It measures 137x99x131mm and weighs 831g with the battery and a card fitted. In some respects it’s closer to a DSLR than its bridge super-zoom heritage might lead you to expect, though of course it has a fixed lens. Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 Design and controlsĬompared with the earlier FZ200, the Lumix FZ1000 is a step up in terms of size and weight.
In my review I’ve closely compared the two models for stills and video to see which offers the best combination of features, handling, performance and quality for your money. With this specification, the FZ1000 is clearly going up against Sony’s Cyber-shot RX10, a high-end bridge camera which also has a 1in 20 Megapixel sensor.
The FZ1000 has a fully-articulated (but not touch-sensitive) 3in LCD screen and a 2359k dot OLED viewfinder (the same as the Lumix GH4) for composition, offers top shutter speeds of 1/4000 or 1/16000 (with its mechanical or electronic shutters respectively), 12fps continuous shooting, built-in Wifi with NFC, autofocusing which works down to -4EV and exploits the defocus profiling debuted on the GH4, an external mic socket (but no headphone jack), and support for 1080p video at up to 120fps (100fps in PAL regions), or 4K UHD at 25 or 30fps depending on region. The lens is also fairly bright, starting out at f2.8 at the wide-end and ending at f4 at the long end.
The 16x zoom range may be shorter than the 24x of the FZ200 or 60x of the FZ70 / FZ72, but the new FZ1000 boasts a 20 Megapixel / 1in type sensor with around four times the surface area of those models, allowing it to deliver lower noise and a wider dynamic range, not to mention higher resolution. Announced in June 2014, it represents a new premium category in the Lumix super-zoom lineup, complementing rather than replacing the ageing but still popular FZ200. The Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 is a DSLR-styled super-zoom camera with a 16x / 25-400mm range, a decent-sized 1in sensor and 4k video recording capabilities.
