Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ45

The Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ45 is a large zoom all-in-one camera for people that want the handling of an SLR but without the need for a collection of lenses. The 25-600mm 24x zoom lens captures wide-angle shots and telephoto action with equal ease for both high quality still photos and HD video. The POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) helps to keep shots blur free, even at maximum zoom, and other in-camera technology includes Intelligent ISO Control, Face Detection AF/AE with Face Recognition, Intelligent Scene Selector, Intelligent Exposure and AF Tracking to help you get the best from the 14.1 megapixel CCD sensor in every shooting opportunity.

The 14.1-megapixel DMC-FZ45 features a 25mm wide-angle 24x optical zoom f/2.8-5.2 LEICA DC VARIO-ELMARIT lens. The 25mm wide-angle lens has about twice the shooting area of the standard 35mm lens. The powerful 24x optical zoom can be used both in still and motion picture recording. The Extra Optical Zoom function uses the centre part of the CCD to extend this 24x zoom ratio to powerful 50.6x zoom at a resolution of 3-megapixel or less in still picture recording.
