LUMIX ZS99 Compact Point and Shoot Digital Camera (Silver)
Product Details
Web ID: 21354423Pretty darn good fo the money
pretty cool camera with lots of controls for pro results. I do miss the viewfinder, however, but at this price point, you get what you pay for. It's remarkably easy to take snapshots and the camera is way easier than lugging a big DSLR or mirrorless, and the 30x optical zoom makes this a powerhouse. I do wish Pannie would include software for processing .rw2 files as Nikon does with their robust NX studio software. I don't own Photoshop or Correl or Lightroom, but it shouldn't be so proprietary to work with these superior files. I tried to download the webcam software and the download link would not work for me on my Mac. I would be nice to have a screw mount somewhere for filters and lens protection. Gotta get support.....

A reliable camera
This is my third Lumix purchase. This camera has been my go to camera for outdoor hikes. I love it because it's small enough to carry in the pocket of a coat. The picture quality has been very good. It would be a great camera for anyone that likes to travel light.

Convenient travel camera with great zoom range
Enjoy the wide zoom range but wish the telephoto speed was faster. Long distance shots come in a lttle grainy. 1" sensor would have been a bonus. Overall, it is a solidly built camera and will work well for pocket travel.

Perfect travel camera
The ZS99 is sleek, lightweight, and small enough to fit in a pocket, making it ideal for travel and everyday carry. The build quality feels solid, and the camera features a comfortable grip, which helps when shooting at longer focal lengths. The 3-inch tilting touchscreen is a nice touch, allowing for easy framing, especially for selfies and vlogging. Cons: Struggles in low-light conditions, No electronic viewfinder, No external microphone input. Overall it’s a great camera for a great price. 10/10 recommend!

Disappointed in zoom
I am disappointed in the quality of pictures. My phone takes much better photos and has a better zoom. I was really hoping to use this to get back into my passion of photography after going through a difficult time, but this was not worth the purchase.
