Panasonic has today revealed the new eight megapixel 12x optical zoom DMC-FZ30. The FZ30 follows on from the remarkably popular FZ20, it continues that camera's standard of providing SLR-like features and body design with a big zoom and image stabilization. Primary changes are more megapixels, a mechanically linked zoom ring, a higher resolution flip-down and twist LCD monitor, RAW capture, longer exposures, improved control layout and faster operation (especially startup). This new camera won't be that much of a surprise to many of our readers, thanks to several leaks in the last week. We have a preview and gallery of sample images from a pre-production camera online now.
