The best point and shoot camera out
Cabre Posted
Before buying this camera, I was constantly purchasing disposable cameras and spending even more money developing the photos. I finally decided to invest in a real camera, and I’m so glad I chose this one. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and perfect for beginners. The variety of settings is impressive, including manual controls if you want to experiment, and it even shoots in stunning 4K video. The photo quality is crystal clear with great color accuracy and sharpness. Battery life is solid — I can easily shoot all day on a single charge — and it feels sturdy without being too bulky. Plus, transferring photos to my phone or laptop is super simple with the built-in WiFi/Bluetooth. I highly recommend this camera to anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality option without the complicated learning curve.

Good camera
Xfactor Posted
The quality is really good. I’m still learning the settings, but it’s a great point and shoot camera! Really great for photos and traveling and it’s compact and easy to bring along on trips. The flash is the only downside because it’s kind of in an awkward place where I usually put my fingers.

Fun Point and Shoot!
KevinD Posted
So I’ll start off by saying this camera held up to what I’d hoped it would be. With that being said, I bought it knowing about a couple of its drawbacks thanks to previous reviewer’s insights. So here are some of those “cons” real quick: The flash is in fact in an inconvenient spot. But I was used to shooting another point and shoot camera with a flash in the same spot. The camera is BORDERLINE pocketable, I think any bigger and it’d fall out of that classification. The camera also struggles in low light. It would struggle to pick up on a subject in dim lighting, and the struggle only got worse as I zoomed in more and more. So with all that out of the way, here are some of the things I really enjoy about this camera: The 720mm zoom is INCREDIBLE. I was really skeptical of it, just because my phone goes to potato quality after a certain threshold of zoom. But the specs don’t lie, and the optical zoom is spectacular. Images were so clear. In lower lighting the image clarity gets less great, which is when the flash comes into play. The flash is really good at fanning out and capturing the scene and subject. It’s nice and bright, and of course you can change the intensity in the settings. The ability to tilt the screen is a really fun feature. I don’t use this camera for video so I can’t speak to anything on that front, but all in all this was a great replacement for my old point and shoot, and I take it with me on all my hikes and outdoor walks and family gettogethers.

Best purchase as my first camera!
AntonetteJS Posted
This is my first digital camera. I don't have anything to compare it with besides my iPhone. So far it's very user friendly and has so much cool features that it amazes me. It's lightweight, battery life if I use it a lot it takes up to 2 days until I need to charge it. I love the aesthetics of how it looks like! Best purchase ever! Here are some of the photos I shot using their retro setting.

Recommend Lumix ZS99 ! ! ! ! !
Birdlegs Posted
Great camera -- I love Panasonic Lumix products! This ZS99 seems so familiar to my old Lumix DC-ZS70, which completely wore out after several years and several thousand photos. I require a real camera in hand, and a purse-sized one at that, that's easy to operate with one hand and take wherever I go. No giant lenses for me, and cell phones are too awkward, proven by the numbers of blurry images. My new ZS99 is more affordable than the $1500+ models and provides very sharp images. The zoom has helped me sharpen my artistic eye, producing high-quality greeting cards that have garnered praise from friends, a couple of whom are collecting them. About the only thing it can't do well is capture hummingbird wings in flight, but the faces and bodies are fine.

Good portable camera
AlexB Posted
Camera pretty good!. I tend to cover the flash with my fingers also other people do the same if I ask to take a picture. Video quality pretty good. Like the fact that I can send the photos to my phone with wifi Connect.

Hey Alex! Thank you for the wonderful feedback. We are glad to hear you're enjoying the video quality and the ability to send photos to your phone via Wi-Fi. As for the flash inconvenience, it might help to adjust the grip slightly to avoid covering it. Try holding the camera with your fingers placed on the sides or back, which can help keep your hands clear of the flash area while still maintaining a comfortable hold. We hope you will enjoy capturing and sharing your memories with our DC-ZS99 camera! -C <img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/stratos-logos/logos/Panasonic.png" alt="Panasonic" title="Panasonic" style="display: block !important; margin-top: 2em !important; border: 1px solid #ccc !important; padding: 2px !important; background-color: white !important;" />

Highly recommend it
AnnoyedCustomer Posted
I am very happy with this purchase. It is so easy and quick to pull out and start taking pictures immediately. The zoom is crazy good and has two different methods for steps and precision. I was getting ready for a trip when I bought this. Initially, I was looking at a different, cheaper camera that looked like it would work for what I wanted. But then Nate, the camera guy at the Best Buy I was at, warned me against that other camera and gave me a few reasons why he didn't think I would like it. He then recommended this one and I have been using it so much on my trip. Crystal clear pictures, variety of modes and the ability to move the screen to a selfie mode has been invaluable. I'm still learning everything it can do and am very happy with my purchase. Only cons I can think of is that Panasonic's Image App is a pain to use and I occasionally click the On/Off button while I'm pulling it out, but I've been getting better about that Thanks Nate for the help!

Small Powerhouse
Alexandra18 Posted
[Employee of bestbuy] If you are looking for a dupe do the Canon Mark III this and the Sony Cybershot are the best options! It gives that perfect glow that comes from a really good digital camera. My sunset and beach photos look edited just from how nice the color and quality is of the camera shots. And unlike the Mark III, this takes fantastic night photography. My photos from Universal and Disneyland look super nice and the quality is incredible, you don’t lose any color or definition in your photos taken at night.

Great & functional for everyday life.
AmandaS Posted
I absolutely love this camera! It’s perfect for what I need. My son plays baseball and without having to be super close to the field, I can be farther away and still comfortably still take nice photos that aren’t pixelated or poor quality. For far distance photos as someone who isn’t a professional photographer, you really can’t beat the price point and quality. Another plus of this camera is the flip up screen, it definitely is one of my favorite features for sure. If you’re looking for something that is great quality while still being a great functional camera for long distances this is a great option.

Wow, thank you for such a fantastic review! We’re so glad to hear the camera is hitting it out of the park for you (pun intended). Capturing clear, detailed photos from a distance, especially of fast-paced moments like baseball games, is exactly what we designed it for, and it’s great to know it’s making a difference. The flip-up screen is one of our favorite features too, and we’re thrilled it’s helping you get the perfect shot.

Great for beginners & experienced photographers
AlexS Posted
Great point and shoot camera for beginners and experienced photographers who like to control different features. I was on the hunt for the canon g7x and found that this was very comparable in terms of quality, features, and compact. If you’re a beginner you don’t need to change any settings and can just adjust the different modes. If you’re more experienced there are a lot of adjustments you can make with white balance, filters, personalized shooting settings and more! It has a great zoom and my personal favorite feature is the blur effect in selfie mode.

Amazing zoom and great quality photos
SilviaD Posted
I bought this camera open box and I was pleasantly surprised. The camera was in pristine condition and the quality is so good. I bought this for a trip as a travel camera and it honestly takes better pictures than my phone (except for low light). The zoom is amazing! The battery life is great for traveling, I only had to charge it every other day.

I just bought this camera, and so far I absolutely love it! This is my very first camera, so I’m still learning how to use all the settings and get the hang of everything.

Big zoom range in a pocket-sized camera
Arquien Posted
Is small enough to fit in a coat pocket. It’s wonderfully travel-friendly and very nicely turned out. The lens built into this camera has a relatively huge 30x optical zoom range, equating to 24-720mm in full-frame terms, and stretching from fairly generous wide-angle coverage to mighty super-telephoto reach.

Do not buy this camera, simply the worst camera I
DanielA Posted
Hi, I came to the store to buy a gift for my wife for her birthday about a month ago. I was looking to buy the Canon G7x and it was simply out of stock. One of the store's salespeople came to me with an offer for the Lumix ZS99. I hadn't seen the camera before. He convinced me to buy the camera. I explained to him that my wife's birthday is in 3 weeks from the date of purchase and what would I do if she didn't like the camera. He suggested that I purchase a membership for $50. He said that I would receive a 60-day return option. In the end, he advised me to come back after a few days to cancel the membership and everything would remain as he promised. In any case, I received the camera a few days later. A week ago, my wife opened the camera for the first time and the camera was simply horrible. The quality is not good at all. The focus doesn't look good at all. In the end, the guy scammed me. I went back to the store to return the camera and I simply didn't get any response. I paid over $600. This camera is not worth it. Do yourself a favor and don't go near this camera. It's at my house. I just have no choice but to buy this camera...

Hello Daniel! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we're truly sorry to hear about the disappointment you've faced, especially with a purchase meant to be a thoughtful gift. It’s disheartening to know the camera didn’t meet your expectations, and we understand how frustrating it must feel, particularly given the circumstances around the return policy and the in-store experience. We recommend having the camera set to iA or iA+ mode to make use of the auto focus feature. If you are using a different mode, please press on the MF button on the camera and select the type of auto focus would you wish to use for that shot. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. - F <img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/stratos-logos/logos/Panasonic.png" alt="Panasonic" title="Panasonic" style="display: block !important; margin-top: 2em !important; border: 1px solid #ccc !important; padding: 2px !important; background-color: white !important;" />
