    With its Intelligent Automatic mode, the Panasonic FZ28 will delight anybody looking for an easy-to-use camera that still performs well with 18x zoom and HD video. More demanding users, though, will be disappointed to see that the camera has not really undergone much of an upgrade: its viewfinder is still poor and work remains to be done on the noise management … Read more

    The camera is too good. Its has excellent telephotographs. The macro mode is equally good and you can capture shots in close distance up too 1 cm . Outdoor photos in Aperture mode is a bit bright but can be easily adjusted if you know the correct settings. Overall I have been able to caputure some really cool telephotos and closeups Read more

    this is the nice Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 focus is fast and accurate at poor light and even at short distances without activating tha macro function which seems auto activated in most modes. The video is OK and zooming is possible. Focusing is well-paced and, despite the lack of the Lumix Easy Zoom button, the lens travels promptly and efficiently from the wideangle end of the zoom to the telephoto. The menu system is clearly labelled, but options within options such as... Read more

    I purchased this for my Dad, after he lost his Fuji. It is by far a much better camera, with a superb lens. Its about as close to the perfect camera as you will get for a point and shoot. the noise has been reduced over the F18, which my brother has. He sees it as a little better, and the price is excellent. I really like the HD video mode, which allows the camera to truly work as a video camera replacement when it would be nice to have one. The zoom is pretty much all... Read more

    This is an amazing camera for the price! If you have done your homeworkresearch, you know that cameras supporting RAW format are typically much more expensive and in higher-end Digitial SLRs. The camera is very fast to take and store frames. The support of HD video at 720p 30fps considering this is a camera is incredible. It works well and extremely functional now given the capacity and speed of SDHD memory! As equally important is that the menus are intuitive and modes... Read more
