Panasonic’s DMC-FZ150 – The 24x Super-Zoom Camera with Full HD Video recording

An eminently worthy addition to the series, the FZ150 boasts a 25mm ultra wide angle, powerful 24x optical LEICA DC VARIO-Elmarit lens with Panasonic’s Black Box Nano Surface Coating technology to minimize light reflection that causes ghosts and flares. Picture perfect – the FZ150 can also record high-resolution full-HD 1920 x 1080 50p videos for those users looking for high picture quality of both photo and video.

The DMC-FZ150 features a high-quality LEICA DC VARIO-ELMARIT 25mm ultra wide-angle lens with a 24x optical zoom (35mm camera equivalent: 25-600mm). With the newly applied Nano Surface Coating technology, light reflection is dramatically minimized across the entire visual light range (380nm-780nm) by applying the extra-low refractive index coating on the surface of the lens. This results in a highly clear picture with dramatic reduction of ghost and flare.

Thanks to Panasonic’s black box technology, the image delivered through the lens of the DMC-FZ150 has exceptional optical performance with stunning clarity that passes Leica’s stringent standards. Comprising 14 elements in 10 groups, including 3 ED lenses and 2 aspherical lenses with 3 aspherical surfaces, this advanced lens unit delivers exceptional optical performance, suppressing distortion at wide end and colour bleeding at tele-end.

Sharing images and video footage is a key part of photography and Panasonic ensures that it remains effortlessly easy thanks to Lumix Image Uploader’.
