Remarkably well captured Bassy, well done. I too fall in to the jealous sector, having only ever seen one. Remarkably, I spotted it in a city centre, at Castlefield, Manchester, UK,  where one of ...

Not sure what you meant by "The 200 doesn't have to zoom" Did you mean 100? It's also worth pointing out that the build quality of the 100/200 is superior to the small sensor ZS's and the 200 EVF & ...

I had a Flipbac on mine which is only about £12.00 in the UK but I believe the official Sony RX100 one fits very well and is very reasonably priced Dave

Same thing without a pointless flip LCD if I'm not mistaken

Gal That is a wimp setting. -5 all day long

I have my ZS200 set up  with C1 @ 16:9 for landscape shots, with several other parameters preset and the touchscreen turned off. I'm a right eye shooter but find that I repeatedly move the focal ...

Whilst I'm quite capable of blurring out the background using zoom with the TZ100/200 (or pinhead sensors for that matter), I too would welcome a fake bokeh feature to save all that messing about! Dave

Is your real name Spock?

Hi Erik It utilises the wide/tele lenses of a phone with dual cameras and combines two images. The iphone 7 & 8 "plus" versions have it as does the iphone X. I had a 7 plus that I changed after 3 ...

+1 from me. It's very effective on smartphones and not all users have the time or desire to PP in whatever programme they have available to them. For the most part I personally do next to no PP ...

Stuart Have you tried the extended optical zoom? I use it with the 14-140 on the G85 and the IQ is quite acceptable. That will give you a range of 28-560, albeit the 280-560 will be at 8mp. I use ...

As a long term ZS100 user (I now have the 200) my view is that the soft lens issue is greatly exaggerated by the pixel peepers and those using it at default settings. Panasonics are a little soft ...

Possibly; that happens to me a lot..............

The product I used was T-cut actually! Toothpaste is pretty good on car paint...... Dave

I tried polishing out a scratch on an LF1 LCD screen a couple of years ago and I made it look worse because there was a coating on the screen that came off around the scratch and it was then worse ...

When you adjust the screen it’s adjusting the EVF at the same time

The default is a little paler than reality in my opinion, as is the LCD, but it's more noticeable in the viewfinder. They can be fully adjusted to taste; contrast, saturation, brightness etc. Dave

Many thanks for a well balanced and sensible review, based on, as you state, realistic expectations. Dave

Both the previous responders gave good, solid advice, however they are recommending current kit and you said money was an issue. The FZ300/330 replaced the FZ200 which is still available at a good ...

There have been several posts on this forum comparing shots taken with the FZ1000 and the ZS200 (not 100) and without exif data available, unless you are an insane pixel peeping fruit cake it's ...
