5 out of 5 stars   Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ70 16.1 Digital Camera
By Artfultraveler on August 31, 2015
Review submitted for Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ70 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 60x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (PNDMCFZ70K)
Pros: I am thoroughly pleased with the camera. Structurally, it has a very solid feel and is easy to handle with stability. The 20-1200 ZOOM was put to the test during a recent vacation - moving sail boats over 1 mile away. The focusing system tracked wonderfully and the photographs were quite good for the distance and fact that the camera was handheld. Having an wide angle lens at the low end enabled me to better frame expansive scenery over and over again! Battery charge life was far more than I expected - bought two batteries - one to be used per day while other thoroughly charges. Also bought multiple. Also bought 2 Sony 64 GB cards (94 MG/s) at a great price.
Cons: None. This camera is a tremendous value!
Other Comments: Auto-adjustment setting was amazing - particularly in low light, back-lit, or high contrast situations.

5 out of 5 stars   Fabulous camera!
By shutterbug on May 21, 2014
Review submitted for Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ70 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 60x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (PNDMCFZ70K)
Pros: I wanted a digital camera with a viewfinder. This is it!! I can switch it on or off and use the screen. I can review on the screen, edit etc. But nothing beats being able to put the viewfinder up to your eye and see what you are going to shoot! Easy to use!! Affordable!! Not too heavy!!
Cons: None

4 out of 5 stars   So far (i.e., after less than 2 weeks use) it meets or exceeds all expectations
By Nemo54 on May 10, 2014
Review submitted for Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ70 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 60x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (PNDMCFZ70K)
Pros: The performance to price ratio is excellent. The 20 mm equivalent wide angle and RAW capability helped me chose this over any of the throng of competing models. Battery life, even with much zooming and image reviewing, is much better than expected. Controls are easy to use (in spite of arthritic finger joints). Image stabilization, even at full telephoto, is surprisingly good when the subjects are reasonably well lighted. Naturally slower shutter speeds under dimmer conditions still favor using a tripod. The weight and overall "feel" of the camera are very good.
Cons: There is noticeable, but usually tolerable, image noise at the two highest ISO settings. As one would expect, the built-in flash has limited usability.
Other Comments: The camera would be nearer to "perfect" if it had a fully articulated LCD, especially for macro work and non-eye-level shots. Following further use and more familiarity I might have to give it a full five stars.

5 out of 5 stars   1200MM Equiv. Got to love it!
By Jimmymac on April 06, 2014
Review submitted for Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ70 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 60x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (PNDMCFZ70K)
Pros: I take mostly wildlife, so staying back is a GOOD thing.. I mean, how close do you really want to get to an Alligator? I almost always use a tripod to get the best results and this camera does not disappoint. I have some shots of the moon that show the craters very clearly..Image Quality is quite good..All in all, it does a very good job. I have a couple DSLR's and some other P&S cameras and this one is with me most of the time..Love that 60X zoom! Jimmymac
Cons: The viewfinder leaves a lot to be desired, but at least, it has one...

5 out of 5 stars   Great Camera
By JF on March 31, 2014
Review submitted for Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ70 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 60x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (PNDMCFZ70K)
Pros: Can't beat the quality for this camera considering the price point. This is the first time I've bought from BuyDig and they were fantastic. Couldn't believe how responsive they were to both email and phone questions. They have every on-line retailer beat in terms of customer service.
Cons: One problem was that the camera did not come with a US warranty and all of the instructions were in foreign languages. BuyDig made this right with no fuss. They offered an immediate full refund or a pre-paid extended warranty that went well beyond the manufacture's warranty. It was a no brainer.
Other Comments: BuyDig will be my first choice for on-line purchases. Can't beat their price or service.
