Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TZ80 Silver

A modern digital ultrazoom with plenty of powerful functions, which push the possibilities of available compact cameras even further. The key feature is the 18Mpx high sensitivity MOS sensor in combination with a powerful Venus image processor. Together, they process photos and videos quickly, and the resulting photos and videos have vivid and realistic colours even in low-light conditions. For better photo post-processing, the camera supports the RAW image format.

Owners of the newest TVs will certainly appreciate the option to record videos in the 4K resolution with stereo sound, as well as extensive post-production features of the resulting recordings. The high-quality Leica lens with 30x optical zoom will allow you to precisely shoot photos of far-away subjects (animals) in great detail while keeping your distance from their natural habitats.

Key Features

• Video recording in 4K resolution
• 30x optical zoom to shoot far-away subjects
• 5-axis hybrid optical stabiliser
• Electronic viewfinder for a perfect preview even in bright light
• High-speed video 1280 x 720 pixels, 100fps
• Supports manual zoom, aperture and shutter speed
• Autofocus with face and eye detection
• Wireless control from mobile devices (Panasonic Image App)

New Possibilities with the 4K Resolution

The 4K resolution provides four times more pixels than the commonly used Full HD, thus achieving a much sharper image that will look great on TVs even with above average screen sizes. This model features the extra 4K photo function which allows you to capture any frame in a video recording (4K, 25fps) and use it as a stand-alone photo with a resolution of 8 megapixels. Due to this, you can easily capture a very dynamic scene where you would otherwise have a problem with the correct shutter speed timing.

Another feature, resulting from the advantages of recording in 4K, is the Post-Focus function. It allows you to select the focus after you have taken the photo. The camera simply takes multiple photos, each of which has a different focus, allowing you to select just the right photo, for example, with a focus on your friends on the foreground or a yacht in the background. This allows you to create several different photographs from a single shot.

5-Axis Stabiliser and Level Shot Function

The combination of HYBRID O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabiliser) with 5-axis correction makes shooting blurless videos with one hand much easier. This feature detects and compensates for 5 of the camera's movement axis - horizontal, vertical, the rotation axis, vertical rotation and horizontal rotation. The Level Shot function detects the horizontal line in the image even when the camera is tilted. It provides stable video recording, even when recording in high angles.
* The HYBRID O.I.S. and Level Shot do not work when recording 4K video and high-speed video.
