My New Camera: Panasonic Lumix FZ1000

In my previous post, I told you that we went to Thrissur on a trip to buy a camera. But I realised I didn’t show you which camera we bought. So here it is – Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 Bridge Camera that can shoot 4K video, do 120fps slow-mo, has 18x optical zoom, 5-axis optical stabilisation, 1-inch sensor, and most importantly 3.5mm audio jack to connect to external microphones. Here are some more reasons on why I bought this model – if you are interested.

I like this camera very much, but it’s a used (one-year old) model. So the risk of any malfunction falls on me. I hope it will hang on for one or 1.5 years by which time I’ll buy a better camera (by which time manufacturers will release another gem like this). Nevertheless, in the meanwhile, I look forward to learning, photographing and videographing to my heart’s content
