The camera sports a three-inch touch-screen display. Fortunately, the ZS20 uses a hybrid control scheme. You get buttons for the important settings, like turning the flash on and off and adjusting exposure, and a knurled dial on top to quickly switch shooting modes.
As with most digital cameras today, you get plenty of bells and whistles of varying degrees of usefulness, including a sophisticated panoramic photo mode and a built-in GPS for recording the location of a shot.
But the wow factor here is the tremendous photographic flexibility of a 20x zoom lens in a 6. Car enthusiasts recently gathered in Newport, Rhode Island to gaze upon auto masterpieces, and what ….

Cigar Life. In the meantime, the previous confirmed position is displayed. The plus-side is knowing exactly when the GPS is operating, but the downside is taking anything up to a few minutes to re-acquire your position from cold.
Meanwhile the GPS Off option really does turn it off altogether. For quicker searching you can also download GPS Assist data via a utility on your computer which contains updated positions of the satellites. Panasonic has however modified the on-screen graphics for the GPS status. To its side is a satellite icon with three bars underneath indicating progress on the searching process. Another is the cross-referencing of co-ordinates against an internal database to display a place name.
Of course a system which displays landmark names by location can be tripped-up by overlap or simply covering a large area.
As such, you may need to move around a park, zoo or golf course before its name is revealed, while anything close to a known landmark will often display its name instead.
In another example, a church I confirmed was in the database from earlier photos was later mis-identified as an information centre. More on the mapping in a moment. I did this for the bar which was mistakenly displaying the name of a nearby cinema instead — see below.
Instead in a bizarre decision, you can only enter characters using the rocker control. This is the same as the text entry for names in Face Recognition mode. The complete global installation will consume 6. Storing the maps on the card is necessary due to their size, but it does make them dependant on the actual card itself. In use I found the maps fun, but their basic graphics are certainly no replacement for more conventional or detailed mapping solutions. As for battery life, GPS has an inevitable impact.
As before you can start filming in any mode by simply pressing the red record button and you can also capture still photos while filming, albeit only at a maximum of 3. This may be appropriate for casual handheld filming, but may cause some catch-up issues when mounted on a tripod and panning. Panasonic continues to offer the choice of two encoding formats, although the old fashioned Motion JPEG option of earlier models has finally been dumped for MP4.
All three modes are encoded using progressive video at 25p or 30p depending on region. This is pretty standard due to tax regulations in Europe, but earlier Lumix models from other regions could often break this limit and record for longer in AVCHD mode. I then recharged, reformatted and tried again, this time in p AVCHD, and was pleased to discover the camera recorded a clip lasting just under an hour and a half before the battery gave up the ghost.
Of course your mileage may vary depending on region, and some European models may refuse to record clips lasting longer than in any mode. The first clip above is a handheld pan and zoom which demonstrates the Power OIS stabilisation and optical zoom in action.
During the clip I panned around by degrees and walked forward about three meters. The Power OIS stabilisation has done a pretty good job at eliminating any wobbles from hand-shaking and the walking itself, but as I zoomed-into the maximum focal length, I found it very hard to completely avoid shake. The 20x optical range is certainly very impressive, and the camera also does a good job at adjusting its focus to keep the image sharp. Do you find it distracting? Maybe not, but for some it could drive them towards more stable optical systems.
As usual I zoomed in and out a couple of times as I attempted to follow the motion. The result has pros and cons compared to my earlier handheld version. At this point I was beginning to question the practicality of such a long focal length on such a small camera — for movies anyway. The camera does however search a little with continuous AF enabled, so to avoid this hunting effect, just film in PASM modes and disable the feature.
In the sixth clip, above, I tested the continuous autofocusing capabilities in a cafe environment. PS — I go through quite a few drinks and cakes in this cafe, for my tests, so if you find my reviews useful and ever feel like treating me, feel free to buy me a coffee — cheers!
In my seventh clip, above, I really put the continuous AF capabilities to the test with a subject steadily approaching the camera. One of the best reasons to have a touch-screen is being able to adjust the focus while filming without moving the camera. I love this capability on touch-screen cameras. The additional processing required means the frame rate is greatly reduced, but this is in turn means the footage is accelerated in playback, further accentuating the toy-like effect.
These clips are then played back at 30fps during playback, thereby slowing the action by 7. You can see an example clip opposite. This would get you a great deal of footage as the bit rate works out about half a Megabyte per second of played-back material. The 10fps mode locks the focus, white balance and exposure with the first shot, but reduce the speed to 5fps or 2fps if you prefer , and you can enjoy continuous autofocus with adjustable white balance and exposure, not to mention up to pictures in a sequence.
Understandably the focus, exposure and white balance are all locked in these modes. With the camera set to 10fps mode, I fired-off ten JPEGs in the 14M Fine setting in a fraction under a second, confirming the rate of 10fps, albeit for a maximum of ten, not 15 frames. Reducing the speed to 5fps with AF, I managed 16 frames in 4. Switching to the 40 and 60fps modes turns to a silent electronic shutter; the former delivered exactly 40 shots in two-hundredths shy of one second, while the latter captured exactly 60 shots in the same time.
After each burst, the camera displayed the card-writing icon for up to ten seconds. During this time you could still fire-off more images, but in smaller bursts until the buffer was completely cleared. For short bursts, the 10, 40 and 60fps modes all filled their buffers in just one second, forcing you to wait until exactly the right moment before shooting, lest you miss some of the later action.
You can see a sequence below at 10fps. May 27, The best in its category. We highly recommend it. October 3, A very good compact camera with a powerful zoom and excellent full HD video and audio quality.
August 6, See specs. Disadvantages:- Noisy pictures thus acceptable. It's like "no touch screen". Too hard to work with it. June 18, This camera can blow out the highlights easily, but as you become at one with th Zs20, you'll learn how to prevent this.
A detailed review will follow. In a nutshell, I love it. For the price, optical zoom capability, size, and full feature set, the Zs20 can't be beat. Surface Duo 2 review: Microsoft's second dual-screen hybrid is a letdown. Bonifacic , Twitter Facebook Reddit Mail.
