Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

In regular daylight, the quality is stellar and the 9mp photo capture during hd video recording is also stellar. Fantastic clear photos from far away using the telephoto mode.

The gimmicky shooting modes work well, especially compared with the gimmicky filters found in smartphone apps like vsco or instagram. The autofocus is fast. I expect this to become automatic as i use the camera more over time.

Like me it appears to have survived. Very surprising. The 30x zoom is great. It's just fun.

It is on sale for a pittance this month at a well-known store. Silver/ chrome color of this model is cheaper but identical except appearance with the black one. Would definitely recommend. Buy it from amazon.

Cons

Do not use this camera in a humid environment and go from cold air conditioned to hot and humid outside. It is impossible to use outdoors when the sun's out because the image viewer can't be seen, and suffers from severe gadgetitis.

Panasonic tech support is an insult to their customer. Panasonic's warranty is worthless and their warranty department personnel are rude.

It's just got a very cheap, plasticy feel to it. Just really crummy.

Price

Too bad the price was kind of high but it takes great photos unlike my last damn canon camera

I bought the pana zs50 mostly for its viewfinder and the price

Competitiveness

This is the best lowlight camera ive ever owned and did better taking night shots on the streets of rome than my wifes canon rebel slr

It was compact enough to fit in my pocketbook and its 30x zoom let me capture photos of wildlife at a distance

Disappointed the battery from my former lumis camera doesnt fit

Ive been a photographer for more than halfa century and i rather doubt there will be a better allround and pocketable camera ev... Read More
