    This camera will surprise you in every shot, I didn’t expect such a nice quality and the zoom range is nice

    The camera is cutting edge, but there are 5-6 function buttons that are programmable, takes awhile to get used to

    Easy to use but I found when using it to video tape that the microphone did not pick up sound as well as an iPhone that was taping the same thing at the same exact distance and location.

    Bought this on recommendation of bro-in-law and great reviews. Wanted a camera that would give me great zoom than a “point and shoot” and easier to deal with than a camera w/changeable lenses.

    Camera is well built. I like the mega zoom function. However, directions for use is complicated. In low light, color is washed out. The lens cap is slippery.

    This has been a great travel camera. I have even had some 24" x 36" enlargements made that show a lot of detail in the images. Have captured thousands of great memories. Only slight disappointment was trying to record the Milky Way.....that could be partially light pollution or limitation of the 8.8 mm x 13.2 mm image sensor.

    Great travel camera

    Specifically bought this for a trip to Europe as my pro stuff is just too heavy with body and lenses. Would be nice if the FZ1000 were a little wider and the lens a little faster (it's f2.8-f4 but it moves to f4 rather quickly when zoomed). The 400mm equiv. reach is what sold me over the Sony RX-10. Super customizable function buttons and really quick autofocus and startup. Great electronic viewfinder. Image quality is okay given the 1 inch sensor... not dslr quality but it's not a dslr. I'm no video guy but it seems pretty straightforward and other reviewers liked the 4k video function. Came with an SD card and Shutterfly credit so was about the same price as Amazon.
