A top-end model in Panasonic's Lumix FZ series, the DMC-FZ150K employs a whooping 24x optical zoom so you can capture wildlife shots without getting uncomfortably close, 3D features to further the realism to those moose shots, and a wide angle 25 mm lens that showcases the background scenery with incredible detail. That same 24x zoom power carries over with video recording as well, not to mention those high-definition videos are in the top-of-the-line 1920 by 1080 progressive AVCHD format. An automatic wind-cut function keeps the stereo sound clean on your videos, and you can switch between videos and photos simultaneously. View your masterwork on a Panasonic VIERA TV from an SD memory card.
