Panasonic Digital Cameras

Panasonic Digital Cameras for digital photos of extraordinary quality. The Panasonic DMC-FZ20's advanced zoom lens takes you all the way from 36mm wide angle to 432mm telephoto.

With most compact zoom lenses, the brightness tends to be lower in the telephoto range. Not the FZ20. Its 12x optical zoom lens delivers F2.8 brightness all the way to full telephoto.

The CCDs used in most digital cameras have much smaller light-receiving areas than film does, so photos tend to have a high depth of field. This means that everything in the photo - including objects in the foreground and background - is in focus.

Use the 4x digital zoom together with the 12x optical zoom and you've got ultra-powerful 48x zooming. That approximates a huge 1728mm lens on a 35mm camera.
