About this model
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ82 is a superzoom bridge camera that covers everything from wide landscapes to distant wildlife without changing lenses. Its 60x optical zoom spans an equivalent 20–1200mm, and Power O.I.S. helps keep handheld shots steady, especially at the long end. The 18.1-megapixel sensor and Venus Engine processor deliver detailed stills and 4K video, while 4K Photo modes let you pull 8-megapixel stills from 4K footage – useful for fast action. A built-in electronic viewfinder, tilting rear screen and comfortable DSLR-style grip make it a practical one-camera kit for travel, nature and family photography.
