Big Zoom Camera! Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ40 14.1 MP Digital Camera Brand new, this 14 MP Panasonic camera has more zoom than it should be allowed to have! Starting with a super-wide 25mm focal length, it zooms to an incredible 24X- all optical. In 35mm terms, it’s like having a 25-600mm lens! The perfect safari or sports camera, this weighs far less than half of what a digital SLR camera would with equivalent lenses. If you have a large screen TV you have to check out the High-Def video too! Two well known facts: Panasonic is one of the world’s finest manufacturers of electronics. Leica designs the finest optics on the planet. Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5 10.1 MP Digital Camera Many Lumix cameras have Leica lenses! Put them both together and you get incredibly versatile cameras with razor sharp optics and intuitive, user friendly controls. Here’s a couple of our favorites… Lumix LX5Super bright Leica f.2.o Summicron lens. If you want to shoot low-available-light photos this 10MP camera is the one for you. It also has a super-wide zoom lens equivalent to a 24mm (to 90mm). Aspect ratios can be switched quickly due to a external switch on the lens barrel; I’m particularly impressed that you can choose a square format. I suspect that many pro shooters will be carrying one of these in their briefcase or glovebox as a backup camera! Even more compact- the Lumix GF1! Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 12.1MP Micro Four-Thirds Interchangeable Lens Digital Camera This camera has the same pro-level picture quality as the G2 yet is small enough to fit in a jacket pocket. It has basically the same specs but does not have a built-in eye level finder (though they do offer an accessory finder that slides into the hot shoe of the camera that gives you through the lens viewing). Super cool all around carry-camera!
This is a reasonably priced compact camera with a remarkable zoom range – 26x! Nikon Coolpix P100 Super wide to super telephoto- this is the equivalent of a 26-678mm lens! Good for sports and action photos as well as it shoots up to 10 frames per second.
 Nikon Coolpix P7000 10.1 MP Digital Camera with 7.1x Zoom This is a high quality pocketable camera that will let you take seriously good photos! The 10.1mp sensor is much larger than the ones inside most compact cameras (1/1.7″ CCD), meaning less noise in the shadow areas making this quite good for low-light photos. The lens is an impressive 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6, and has the latest optical VR image stabilization that you need with such a long telephoto lens. You can also shoot RAW files with this guy, or 720p video. It even has an external microphone jack! The camera is fast, shooting up to 45 frames at 1.3 frames per second at full resolution. Though it has a built-in flash, it has a hot shoe allowing you to use external Nikon Speedlights. |
