A representative of prosumer class digital ultrazooms — devices occupying the middle level between consumer compacts and advanced "reflex cameras". In this model, the focus is noticeably shifted to the possibility of video shooting: the maximum video resolution is claimed at 3840x2160, and if necessary, you can connect an external microphone. The non-removable lens of the Panasonic DMC-FZ1000 camera allows you to achieve an optical zoom of 16x, and Power OIS proprietary technology is used for stabilization. The CMOS-matrix has 20 effective megapixels and supports hardware expansion of sensitivity ISO 80 – 25 600. The shutter is combined, with a choice between mechanical and electronic. The convenience of shooting in different positions is provided by a rotary screen, and there are Wi-Fi an...d NFC modules for remote control.

Video reviews

Panasonic DMC-FZ1000 is a camera that can replace an entry-level DSLR with a whole suitcase of interchangeable lenses. With the only caveat that the above is true for amateur photographers.

Mimicry

The "carcass" of the camera mimics to match the DSLR. Similarities with it can be traced in the form of the body of the model and the location of the controls: scrolling dials, a scattering of various buttons and a display on the back of the camera that can be rotated in all directions. He would still have support for touch input and there would be no price for the screen at all. Also, when sighting during the shooting process, the photographer has the right to resort to the services of an electronic viewfinder, the picture in which is shown already the way it will turn out at the output.

Inch matrix

“Under the hood” of the ultrazoom, an inch matrix with a resolution of 20 MP is installed, which compares favorably with the camera compared to colleagues in the shop with a sensor of a smaller physical size. Large, by the standards of a digital camera, the matrix produces a less noisy picture when shooting at high ISO. The range of its photosensitivity ranges from 80 to 25600 ISO units.

Leica optics

Specialists from the eminent German company Leica had a hand in the camera lens. It shoots in a range of equivalent focal lengths of 25-400mm, and the maximum aperture of the optics "floats" from f / 2.8 at the short end to f / 4 at the telezoom. At the same time, a 5-axis image stabilization system is put on guard for the clarity of the picture, which helps to compensate for up to 4 stops of exposure when shooting handheld in low light conditions.

Stabilization system

The stabilizer on board the camera also helps in getting smooth videos. Their recording is carried out in resolution up to 4K (3840x2160 pixels) with a small crop. The frame rate when shooting video reaches 30 fps, and the bit rate is up to 100 Mbps. The Power OIS stub control lever is placed on the base of the lens, where it is adjacent to the zoom and focus mode switch, tied to the framing retractable “trunk” ring.

Versatility

Of the other “goodies” in the camera’s assets, it’s a sin not to mention the high rate of fire (up to 50 fps when shooting at a reduced resolution) and the equipment with a complete set of communication modules (Wi-Fi, NFC and GPS). However, it was still not possible to manage without a fly in the ointment — when the ultrazoom is mounted on a tripod, access to the battery compartment, which contains the battery and memory card, is blocked. The problem is reduced to nothing with the purchase of a suitable tripod head, and working with a camera that captivates with its versatility continues to be a pleasure.
