Panasonic FZ80D Reviews
Great for my age and being a beginner

This is a nice unit but I need to get a decent tripod and ... it is difficult to get
some shots ... not that the camera can't get it .. it is my lack of experience...
which I like, getting to take pictures like a person use to be able to do. Auto
and manual modes too. .. very very complex but great quality...
Two weeks with the LUMIX FZ80D

I bought the FZ80D on sale as a future replacement for my Sony HX99, which I have had since 2018. It has taken a while, and a few references to the User's Manual, to get up to speed with this camera. It is significantly larger than the Sony (I call it a "pocket rocket.") but with that size comes a much longer zoom range. And a feature I use quite often, macro focus works at all zoom settings rather than the zoomed in of the Sony. That said, it is difficult to get precise focusing hand held at the highest zoom setting. A tripod would be useful, but would limit the spontaneous captures I like to make. I shoot primarily nature.
There are subtle differences in the colors and textures captured by each camera, although many of those differences can be modified during editing in Lightroom. (I shoot in RAW only.)
In the past few days, I have learned better how to use the LUMIX to get the shots I want. It seems well built, and I can only hope it will last almost nine years like the Sony.

The Panasonic LUMIX FZ80D Digital Camera (B&H# PADCFZ80D), when sold as such, does not come with a memory card. The version to purchase if wanting a memory card and case in a bundle deal would be the Panasonic LUMIX FZ80D Digital Camera with Basic Bundle (B&H# PADCFZ80DAK) (B&H Kit).

Asked by: Shelley
It shoots RAW but the image quality is soft & crappy. You really need to do a lot of work on the files. Shoot RAW with jpg so you'll have a fairly usable file fast.
