    Let Intelligent Zoom Bring It Closer
    20x Zoom with an Ultra Wide-Angle Lens catches all the action
    (View Larger)

    From stunning architecture to natural landscapes to the funny face your child makes, let Panasonic's powerful 20x optical zoom, with the ZS20K digital camera, bring them into your frame for those special moments. With Intelligent Zoom, extend your reach twice as far, from 20x to 40x, bringing your subjects even closer whether you are shooting pictures or filming a video. And take advantage of the 24mm Ultra Wide-angle Lens - rare on a compact GPS digital camera - giving you a wider range of creative shots due to its viewing space which is approximately 213% larger when compared to a 35mm digital camera.

    Shoot like a Pro with these Professional-Grade Control Features on the ZS20 Compact GPS Digital Camera
    Go after those pictures-in-the-making with Panasonic's new 12.1MP High Sensitivity MOS Sensor and Venus Engine.
    (View Larger)

    The ZS20K compact digital camera comes with the newly developed 12.1-megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor, and high performance image processing (LSI Venus Engine) provide high speed response, high sensitivity recording and superb image quality to capture even the most fleeting photo opportunities. The ratio of the MOS sensor and the Intelligent Noise Reduction system in the Venus Engine adjusts photos and videos taken in sensitive areas and creates clear, crisp imagery. For low-light images, the camera's Multi-process Noise Reduction System produces dramatically clear photos and videos. Intelligent HDR (High Dynamic Range) in the digital camera's iA Mode overlays several still pictures consecutively shot at different exposure levels and produces a single composite picture avoiding over or under exposure.

    Take a Picture and Record It in Full 1080/60p HD with the LUMIX ZS20K Point and Shoot Camera
    All-at-once: Shoot and Record in Full HD with Photo Style, Creative Video, MPEG-4, and 3D.

    The camera's Motion Picture button lets you record while taking photos without having to switch modes. Make videos in full HD 1,920x1,080 60p in both AVCHD Progressive (MPEG-4) and MP4 formats. The 20x optical zoom, with its redesigned side lever for easier zooming access, captures highly natural expressions and fast-moving sports scenes that the naked eye may miss. Play it back in dramatic slow motion and see the difference. Creative Control and Photo Style render your unique style by coordinating colors to your subject and its surroundings. The Creative Video Mode lets you adjust the shutter speed and aperture any way you like when shooting videos.

    Snap in Under a Second with the ZS20 Compact GPS Digital Camera
    Catch the action even when air-bourne with quick start-up time and Light Speed Auto Focus.
    (View Larger)

    Click in the moment with a quick start-up time of approx. 0.95 sec. and Light Speed Auto Focus. Get 12 fps full resolution photographs with the 12.1-megapixel MOS sensor as you take a series of shots. Snap consecutively at approx. 5.5 fps/2 fps with Auto Focus Tracking. And the GPS digital camera's newly added focus mode AF Flexible resets automatically when your subject moves. Even high-speed burst shooting is possible with the ZS20 camera's electronic shutter. In Intelligent Burst Shooting, the frame rate sets according to the subject's movement. And faster data transfer is possible as the DMC-ZS20 is compatible with the Ultra High Speed-I standard SDHC/SDXC Memory Card.

    Advanced Technology Reduces Glare and Minimizes Image Blurring
    Minimize blur and produce picture perfect photos with Nano Surface Coating technology.

    Panasonic's Nano Surface Coating technology, on the ZS20 camera, minimizes light reflection within the entire zoom range (380nm-780nm) thus reducing glare and producing super clear pictures. The LUMIX ZS20's powerful 20x optical zoom can be increased to the 40x equivalent with the Intelligent Zoom function, taking advantage of its Intelligent Resolution technology which brings images to life. The LUMIX camera's POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) minimizes blur, even when zoomed, and Active Mode effectively suppresses handshake vibrations in both still picture taking and video recording.

    Customers like the picture quality of the camera. They say it takes great pictures, and the movies are really crisp and clear. The LCD is a bit more vivid, and it's a great way to capture the scenery. The camera has a larger screen and better resolution, and you can select AVCHD video in several quality levels, including full HD at 1920 x 1080 @ 60 fps. The 20X optics is very nice, and appears to work well.

    Customers like the quality of the digital camera. They mention that it is small enough to carry, well constructed, and has a super-zoom. Some say that the camera is a great all-around camera with no reliability issues. They say the Leica lens is superb and that two levels of JPEG is an excellent feature. Overall, customers find the camera to be a good travel camera for novice or advanced photographers who do not want to carry a heavy bag.

    "...This camera is smart! Although it has manual adjustments for aperture and shutter speed, I hardly ever need them...." Read more

    "...I find them quite good, and remarkable with a small sensor...." Read more

    Customers like the zoom of the digital camera. They mention that the amount of zoom is great, the telephoto capability, and the 20-40X zoom capability. They also say that the PQ was excellent and consistently good in variable light conditions.

    "...They've also vastly improved the digital zoom so that you can now take useful pictures at the equivalent of a 1013mm zoom range, and even longer at..." Read more

    "...In any case, the newer model is nice, the 20x zoom works really well, and I found the image quality to be excellent for a small compact size camera...." Read more

    "...Having the extra zoom is quite nice. I have always enjoyed the Lumix menu system, which is fairly intuitive in this segment...." Read more

    "...No, I cannot zoom in on something a mile away but this does give me a lot of zoom for such a small camera......." Read more

    267 customers mention225 positive42 negative

    Customers like the ease of use of the digital camera. They mention that it is easy enough to use by non-techies, the instructions are clear, and the camera has reasonable manual functions. The intelligent auto mode is good for novices, but it is not nearly robust enough for experienced users. The controls are easy to adjust, and panorama shots are trivial.

    "...No further processing necessary...." Read more

    "...It remains easily pocketable, easy to use and full of features to experiment with and explore. The compromises are few and the benefits are many." Read more

    "...that problem by wearing a thin inner silk glove and I was able to use the camera with ease though I did need to use both hands for stability...." Read more

    "...Burst mode is fun, but not serious. Intelligent auto is good for novices and the uninterested, but not nearly robust enough for regular use...." Read more

    194 customers mention173 positive21 negative

    Customers like the size of the digital camera. They say it's easy to use, compact, and fits in the palm of their hand. The battery lasts quite a while, and the camera holds a spare battery. The form-factor on this camera is wonderful, and it has great zoom capabilities.

    "...It is small, easy to put in a pocket, and has a really long zoom for such a small size...." Read more

    "...everything about this camera as yet but for everyday use, convenience of size and use, I am more than thrilled with what I can do...." Read more

    Customers are mixed about the performance of the camera. Some mention that it performed very well, while others say that it did not perform well in some instances. The display on this one is not ideal in bright sunlight, although, it does work fine in bright light. Some say that the flash is not very powerful in the ZS3 and that it is only responsive when it wanted to be. Some customers also say that when they are recording, the in-camera mike is not that good.

    "...to help get clear pictures at full telephoto, and the scene modes do work pretty well as I have used the sunset and night photo ones a few times..." Read more

    "...add to memorials in findagrave and of all my digital cameras, this one works best...." Read more

    "...Like the previous three models, the display on this one is not ideal in bright sunlight, although it is acceptable...." Read more

    "...This camera performed very well in a difficult environment. PQ was excellent and consistently good in variable light conditions...." Read more

    Friends who lug around heavy DSLR kits (like I used to do) turn green with envy at what this little shirtpocket wonder can accomplish. The ZS20's zoom range from 24mm wide open to 480mm fully optical at 14 mpx has to be seen to be believed. You can start with a broad view of a landscape and then zoom in to capture a single bird on a tree so far away that you don't even see the bird in the landscape view. The images are sharp, well saturated, with none of the blurriness and occasional purple fringing that troubled the ZS10. The updated lenses also seem have shortened the depth of field so that I can now get the bird in sharp focus but the background some distance away is soft and blurry. They've also vastly improved the digital zoom so that you can now take useful pictures at the equivalent of a 1013mm zoom range, and even longer at reduced MPx. Those digitally assisted pix may not win photo contests but they'll tell you whether that distant shorebird was an avocet or a killdeer. Carrying this camera is like having a telescope in your pocket. But the amazing zoom is only the beginning. Equally useful are the burst modes. Lots of subjects -- from talking heads to grandkids to puppies to birds to flowers in the wind -- are in constant motion, and if you take just one shot, you're playing roulette. The grandkid jumping over a log -- you really wanted him in midair, not on the landing. In burst mode, you'll get two, or five, or 10 or even more shots during the leap, and back home on your computer you can pick the one you like best and discard the rest. I now routinely take dozens or even hundreds of images of moving objects, and back at home at the computer I pick out the one or two keepers, and discard the rest. The camera also has an intelligent burst mode that takes just one shot of a static object but automatically takes a burst if the object is moving. This camera is smart! Although it has manual adjustments for aperture and shutter speed, I hardly ever need them. The IA (Intelligent Auto) setting handles ISO, white balance, aperture, shutter speed, and everything else instantly and with reliably excellent results in a wide range of conditions. The ZS20 also automatically performs some operations that previously took a fair amount of effort in Photoshop, with plugins. I was very skeptical of the hand-held night shot scene mode until I happened to be out in the evening of "supermoon" without a tripod. The orange moon had partly cleared the hills when I clicked the shutter. The camera took a burst of exposures and then internally sifted and merged them, and in a second or two gave me as clear and sharp an image as if I had used a tripod. It made a believer of me. Equally good is the HDR setting for high-contrast and backlit subjects. The camera takes a burst of exposures, bracketing the aperture, and then automatically combines them to produce a single image with a well-lit foreground. It used to take a lot of work and luck in Photoshop to achieve this. Totally amazing is the in-camera panorama scene mode. Without a tripod, you stand in a spot, hold down the shutter and make a complete circle in about 8 seconds (the camera shows you a progress bar). A few seconds later you've got, in the camera ready for downloading, a perfectly merged super-wide panorama image with no, or only very faintly perceptible, visual seams. No further processing necessary. There are a number of other scene modes and creative preset modes, and you can save custom settings for quick access. The video on the ZS10 was already very good, and the 20 has only improved on it, performing in full 1080p HD, with better placement for the stereo microphones.I also like the fact that the same batteries used on the previous models work in this one. I prefer to remove the battery and charge it in a wall charger (supplied with the older models), and I can still do that, but the 20 comes with a cable that lets the battery be charged in the camera from a wall plug or a USB port.The one annoyance with this little gem is the touch-screen controls on the digital display. These controls let you set the focus and the zoom, and click the shutter, by touching the screen. I can't imagine any situation where this would be useful. I unwittingly activated these controls by touching the screen and as I handled the camera I unknowingly took dozens of shots of my hand, the inside of my pocket, the ground, the side of my pants, and like that. You can't turn this obnoxious "feature" off! I've learned not to touch the screen when handling the camera, so it isn't a problem any more, but it still diminishes my esteem for the otherwise admirable engineering job that Panasonic did on this camera.This camera -- actually, already its predecessor -- convinced me to dump the 50-lb DSLR outfit I had been lugging around for several years. I don't need it. For me, the ZS series has disrupted the DSLR market much in the same way that DSLRs disrupted the film SLR market. Who needs all that heavy clunky expensive gear? I can do 95% of what I did with the DSLR, and a great many things I couldn't, with this little gem that fits in my shirtpocket.
