Camera can not transfer images to pc
Wonderful camera, but so far i can not make it to transfer images to PC by USB cable, or Wi-FI. The software is archaic and not even include FZ300. I'm try to get help from everywhere,so far no success. Janusz Waksmanski,

Great camera
Lots of features, takes great photos. Nice touch screen which is protected when closed, it feels sturdy. The camera fell out the golf cart twice, hitting the pavement without a scratch. The 25-600mm optical zoom is great. The video works well and can zoom while shooting. I recommend this camera for general use.

Lumix FZ300 - Great all in one camera
I am a hobbyist photographer, and mostly enjoy taking pictures of nature, landscapes, animals, car shows, etc. I also own a Fuji XE-1 mirrorless camera and a Nikon D3300 DSLR. Both of these APS-C sensor cameras are capable of much better image quality than the FZ300, but at a MUCH higher cost when you factor in the cost of lenses. For screen use and for 5 by 7 prints, the Lumix is just so much fun to use and the image quality is really very good considering the small sensor size. The Lumix shoots 4K video, focuses incredibly fast, and is just generally a great camera.

Great bang for the buck!
I've used APS-C and Full-frame DSLRs for a long time now, and only occasionally would use a pocketable compact. The difference in image quality kept me packing the big guns with their big lenses. The big problem is that a decent 500-600mm lens for those systems is heavy and expensive (been there, done that). Often I looked at superzooms wondering if they'd just be a lot of reach with a mushy and flat image as the result. In fact, I tried out a Ni... Show More

Still image sharpness is disappointing.
While this camera has a very good zoom, many great video functions that produce a very good final products, the still images are disappointing. Virtually every one I choose to use needs post-processing for sharpening. The still images are not as sharp as my old FZ-200.

Excellent Product
I gave my FZ200 to my grandson and bought the Z300 to replace it, since I was so pleased with its predecessor. The FZ300 is a solid update with several new features that are very useful. The FZ300 is slightly larger and therefore better equipped for a person with large hands. So, I seldom now inadvertently press the wrong buttons with my right thumb. A huge improvement for me. The FZ300 also has a touch screen which allows one to change settings ... Show More

Great camera!
This camera is just fantastic! I've seen the images several friends have taken with their FZ200, and decided to get an FZ300 for myself. It's a keeper!

great all-around camera
purchased this to replace our Nikon d60, just got tired of the size and having to carry multiple lenses. Focus is extremely fast compared to my prior Nikon/lenses, images are much sharper, low light seems to be excellent so far too. really like the 4k shooting as well. menus are a bit complex, but it can just be put in auto mode and accomplish what most would be looking for.

Excellent camera!
Wow, this is a really nice camera, the best thing is the constant f2.8 across the board. Took pictures at 6:30am, looked like afternoon. Wish there was a full paper manual, there is so much that it can do.

Yes! Its actually an upgrade form the FZ200
I use it for recreation and vacations. It's easy to use and takes Great pictures. I get lots of compliments on how great my pictures look. This camera gives you many options on how you want to take the picture. I upgraded because of the wifi feature. I can now send my pictures directly to my iPad and them send them on from there. Soooooooo many options: too many for this space. Truly - you can't go wrong with this camera. I've used bigger and far more expensive cameras professionally and I only use this one now.

A Bridge to Everywhere
This is really a great camera, but it does have a learning curve. I am familiar with the Panasonic bridge cameras having had the FZ 200 several years ago. I just don't remember it being this advanced. However, it is always fun and exciting learning new things and experimenting with the loads of features.

Used it extensively at the Great New York State Fair
I have lots of pictures with fast movement in the bright sun. I was unfamiliar with many of the controls. I think you agree the results are very good.

My Favorite Camera
I've had Canons, Fujis, Oly's, Sonys and became addicted to the Lumix brand with my GH2. The FZ200 was the best bridge camera around for my needs until the FZ300. I absolutely love it. The lens is exceptional; the weight is ultralight; The AF is accurate and lazer fast. My FZ1000 is weather proof and has more MPs but it's substantially heavier and doesn't have the 300s awesome touch screen.

My third Lumix camera
I am so very pleased with this camera. The pictures are incredible and it is easy to use although I have yet to explore all of the options. I am also interested in seeing how it holds up to outside use. My second P & S Lumix acquired dust under the lenses was unclean able.

Great camera, if the owner's manual is read
This camera is really well built, and has a great lens. Macro and telephoto shots both come out really well. Haven't tried video operations yet. There is tremendous flexibility available, so I found it very important to read (and reread) the owner's manual. Having said that, the camera is very intuitive and has several different ways to adjust important settings on the fly. In less than a week I feel right at home with it. Taking pictures via my smartphone though the camera's Wi-Fi is very cool, and easy.

Happy buyer....
I spent time and researched for a good all around camera for nature photography - I shoot birds and macro flowers, so needed both ends of spectrum. It was between the fz1000 vs fz300. I have not used the fz1000 & here's why. The fz300 gives me the reach and speed I need for wildlife, the protection from weather, and great functionality in all other regards. I did a trial run & bought a used one first, from B&H and fell in love. I returned it due ... Show More

Excellent in all respects for a small sensor
For travel and birding this is an excellent choice due to the fast f/2.8 lens at all focal lengths. 4K video is supported but I don't shoot video so can't comment on that. Ergonomics are excellent. Menus are detailed and do required some learning. Options for Fn keys make the user experience easy once you get them set to your liking using the three Custom settings. AF is very fast. Images are clean up through ISO 400 and ISO 800 is good in reasonable light.

Perfect camera
Amazing camera. I am using the uk model FZ330 specially for outdoors shootings, it's perfect even in full zoom. The best thing is I still learning but I am already satisfied with this camera.

Costs about a single 190 Ah LI-Ion batt for pro cam
This cam costs roughly the same as a 190 Ah Li-Ion batt! I've been shooting with high end 2/3 and larger sensors cam and those costs 10-30x for over 20 years. After using it for a day I can say that it's a great general point and shoot cam under ideal lighting conditions. Do I worry that it'll make my 2/3 and Super 35 cams obsolete? Not at all. This will complement my shooting needs and it will not at all take away from the main cams. It has a us... Show More

So Far I really like the FZ300
I am just a Hobbyist Photographer, I have always used mostly Bridge Style Cameras. I have tried a DSLR but they are so bulky and you have to have different lenses and they get expensive. I wanted a camera with a Good Zoom that does Video and has a Flip out Articulating Screen for Selfies or just awkward spots that you need to tilt the screen to get a good shot of something. This Camera seems to fit the bill of everything I was looking for. I have... Show More
