Panasonic Lumix FZ300

25 - 600 mm, 12.10 Mpx, 1/2,3''

Product details

The 12.1 megapixel high-sensitivity MOS sensor, combined with a new Venus Engine image processor, improves image quality and responsiveness. This powerful combination enables the recording of high-quality
4K videos. This also benefits photographers who can extract the image of the decisive moment as a photo in 8-megapixel resolution from a 4K photo series at 30B/second.
The integrated new, large OLED viewfinder with 1.4 million pixels and comfortable viewfinder magnification of effectively 0.7x convinces with its high contrast of 10,000:1 and excellent colour rendering.
The newly integrated touchscreen function of the fold-out and rotatable 7.5cm LCD monitor with a good 1 million pixels makes for easier operation.
The innovative hybrid contrast autofocus with its DFD (Depth From Defocus) technology works with high precision and lightning-fast with a minimum reaction time of 0.09 seconds, which is particularly noticeable at longer focal lengths.
With advanced AF functions such as eye recognition AF and low light AF, the FZ300 meets a wide range of requirements.
With the built-in WiFi module, the FZ300 can now communicate wirelessly with smartphones or tablets, even without a password, to easily share, store, or operate the camera from your mobile device.

Excellent image quality thanks to Leica 25-600mm zoom with continuous f/2.8 f/2.8 luminous intensity
The Lumix FZ300 is equipped with the powerful 24x wide-angle zoom Leica DC Vario-Elmarit 2.8/4.5-108mm (25-600 mm KB) and with this consistently high luminous intensity, which expands the photographic latitude with the depth of field, short times and in poor light conditions, occupies a special position.
With 14 lens elements in 11 groups, including 1 UHR element, 3 ED lenses and 5 aspherical lenses with 9 aspherical surfaces, the design can be kept very compact without sacrificing quality.
Particular emphasis was placed on low distortion in the wide-angle range and the suppression of annoying color fringes in the telephoto range.
The nanosurface coating with a layer of particularly low refractive index effectively suppresses reflections in the entire visible light range of 380-780 nm. The result is exceptionally clear images, free of ghost images and internal reflections.
The effective Image Stabilizer OIS ensures blur-free, still images even at longer focal lengths.The combination of the 12.1 megapixel high-sensitivity MOS sensor with the new Venus Engine image processor further improves image quality. Advanced multi-process NR noise reduction effectively reduces noise while maintaining fine structures and details of the subject. A newly added random filter provides an analogous character of the color noise and thus creates a correspondingly natural image impression.
In this way, impressive images up to a maximum of ISO 6400 can be achieved.
