The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ8 boasts a 12x optical zoom lens that provides powerful telephoto performance allowing you to snap gorgeous close up shots with deft accuracy. Panasonic’s own Mega O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) system protects against blurry images by detecting even the slightest hand shake and compensating to produce clear and vivid images. Intelligent ISO Control (I.I.C.) reads subject motion and automatically adjusts the shutter speed and ISO setting to get the sharpest, most detailed picture possible. The Lumix DMC-FZ8 delivers effortless and amazing high quality results. Less
