Did a lot of online research looking for a 4k capable video camera that has great features and a good reputation but doesn't break the bank. This camera fits that expectation and even more! Although it cannot compete with a 600 mm F2 prime lens IQ for still photography, the 25 to 600 mm F2.8 built-in lens produces perfectly acceptable IQ for my needs and provides wide coverage single lens convenience. Did I mention the camera was sealed against dust and water splashes!? Before I purchased the FZ-300 I wanted to upgrade from my Rebel T3 and struggled with the thought of plunking down over a thousand dollars to get only some of what I wanted in a camera ... until I discovered the FZ-300. I am impressed and pleased with the results I get and the features of this camera really can't be beat for the target audience it is focused on. I like macro work so here are a couple of images taken with the camera using a 10x High Definition 2 Element Close-Up (Macro) Lens and hand held.Read full review

I have been shooting Canon for more than 4 decades so i am not a novice. I am usually toting a full size SLR with a heavy 150-600 ( my passion is photographing bears ) I was intrigued with this bridge camera concept and was thinking that one of these type cameras could have a place while hiking etc so i found this lumix (new) at a fair price so i purchased it. Been playing with it for about 3 weeks now trying to decypher its unusual/ complex and very non intuitive menu structure. No matter what ISO, white balance, aperture or shutter speed i select ( either in manual or one of the other settings on the control dial ) I have yet to get an image that doesnt have an awful heavy blue or green tint to it AND every single image is crazy high contrast ! I have no idea what is happening here but my two word review for this thing would read......"It Sucks" ! 👎Read full review

After much research, purchased this Lumix 300 for home and travel. The Fz 300 has a phenomenal leica lens that goes from macro to wide angle with ease. Amazingly fast autofocus coupled with the excellent quality exceeds all expectations! I love that fact that it can be used in inclimate weather and am looking forward to taking it to the arctic this summer. Also, phenomenal 600 mm leica lens capabilities and great battery life!

the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ300K is a great point and shoot camera with some DSLR features. Some of these features are 7 image bracketing, fixed fast lens, super great burst shooting, it has the ability to be fully controlled via wifi connection, great battery life, and so much more. And it biggest negative is the super small sensor, which does produce a bit of image noise; however, I have been able to get around that by using adobe's camera raw plug-in. Also, that really comes into play when pushing the ISO up to 1600 and above. I am primarily a sport photographer, and I shoot baseball with it this season and got some pretty good shots with it, with min. post processing. Bottomline, when I want to go lite, it is one of my go to cameras.

The thing that impressed me about this camera up front was the f2.8 through the entire focal range. I does not disappoint. I love the fact that the camera can function in fully automatic mode, but also does a great job emulating manual mode. One of the biggest benefits I have found is a series of Youtube videos that helps you refine the setting and gets you using some of the more advanced features quickly. Quality is great and this Bridge Camera leaves little want for a true DSLR for the amateur to semi professional photographer.
