Update Pros and Cons

Pros

High quality photos, very versatile file size settings, and sharp videos and pics. It isn't a problem as i upload photos immediately via micro sd on my phone with a use of a phone reader. Only slight complaint is that the audio on the video mode is we... Read More

Love the viewfinder and flip screen for selfies. About the only thing i photograph is pollinators, so i'm usually out in the bright sun of the prairie when i'm taking pictures. I like that this model has a pop=up viewfinder which solves the problem of... Read More

This camera packs a lot into it. The size of the camera is perfect for me to get in between stems, leaves, and flowers without chasing off my little bug subjects. This is a perfect little camera for a vacation where you may see wildlife.

The zoom (30 x) is quick and the camera has a decently fast focus as well. When you get a long zoom camera, you want great auto focus and not something that will hunt and make your films one big blur. Use the fn key for easy reach of adjustments.

Lumix zs200 is the new champ with a 20mp 1 sensor, 15x zoom and 4k video. Strong points of the hx80 are :a. Much better overall than panasonic, canon, nikon similarly priced competition. B. Than panasonic or nikon.

Cons

It is terrible at dealing with any movement and utterly incapable of capturing sports photos. Lot's of blurry shots in decent light. However, it is a little hard to get a good picture when zoomed.

Packaging/appearance

If you want a more affordable camera and are willing to trade off some bulk to get 4k video and a touchscreen, i found the zs70... Read More

Love the selfie feature, although i don't do the selfie's lol!

Competitiveness

Much better overall than panasonic, canon, nikon similarly priced competition.

Based on many online reviews, the lumix zs200 is the new champ with a 20mp 1 sensor, 15x zoom and 4k video.

I was going to take my full-size camera and lenses but decided to invest in this instead.

We did take out an asurion 2 year protection plan.
