Best Point And Shoot With Zoom

Best point and shoot plus has the ability to be used by more advanced photographers. Easy to use with enough extras to satisfy everyone

Best Point and Shoot to date for everything but wildlife and sports. Thanks B&H for the fast free shipping!

It looks like a point and shoot camera, but if you take the time it can do a whole lot more. Best features are the instant Bocah effect, high speed filming for capturing action, and the addition of the mini tripod can be used as a remote control within a few feet from the camera. The size makes it great for travel. The on-board mic is decent up close and the fuzzy bunny's foot windjammer is definately a plus!

The SX210IS is a great point and shoot camera. It is small in size but big on features. The zoom is amazing for a camera this size. The only flaw in this otherwise great camera is that there is no viewfinder. High megapixel combined with the zoom make this a great camera that I would recommend to anyone.

Perfect size for my large point and shoot camera with 60x zoom. Fits the charger, a few extra filters etc. Good padding for the camera too.

The SX20 is the most powerful point & shoot that I have ever seen. The telephoto zoom is incredible, and then it has a macro better than any other. From long range to extreme close up - it can't be beat. It is so easy to use and the photos are perfect. I also have an SLR, but the SX20 does eveything that I need to do, that I don't even use the SLR anymore. I would, and have, recommended this camera to everyone that is interested in buying a good reliable product that will last a long time.

This is the PERFECT pancake lens for a PEN-F or similar. It's tiny, light, and optically it's very good indeed. (If you shoot RAW, you'll notice some tiny defects, but these are correctable in post processing, and Lightroom automatically fixes it. If you shoot JPEG, the camera takes care of it for you already.) Whether you actually ENJOY using the lens is going to be a matter of personal preference—for example, it has a power zoom, activated by a zoom ring that doesn't continue spinning; it twitches one way or the other and you just twist and hold till you want to release it at the desired zoom. Some people like this, some don't but I'll just point out it's great for video and it makes the camera's zoom possible to operate remotely for self-portraiture etc. There's pros and cons to it. However, if you want a pancake lens with great optics, a very convenient zoom range for 90% of everyday or walkaround photography, and fast enough for most non-low-light shooting, this lens is hard (impossible?) to beat. I'll add, too, that there's an ingenious little automatically opening lens cap that you should know about—a well-kept secret! It's the Olympus LC-37C Auto Open Lens Cap for M.Zuiko Digital ED 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ Lens and it's really an amazing complement to this lens. The combination of this lens, that cap, and a small MFT body gives you something very close to a high-quality point-and-shoot that you can convert into a serious photography setup as well. Super versatile!

This is a high quality product with in Point Shoot cameras. The optical zoom works great, pictures are really clear. Especially love the low light night shots. Satisfied with the quality for its price range.

It's a perfect step-up from a point & shoot camera. Features we particularly like are the 12X zoom and the continuous shoot option. The picture quality is excellent and love the auto feature -- it thinks and focuses for you with great photo results. Buy it, you'll love it!

I've had a number of point and shoot cameras over the years and although they were pretty good cameras, there was always something missing. I was always looking for something more, maybe better video, a longer zoom or a remote control - something. I read about this camera online , bought one and I couldn't be happier. I am far from a photo expert but I know what I like and I know a nice picture and/or video when I see one. This camera takes amazing still pictures and the videos in AVCHD format are outstanding, even inside under incandescent lighting. Add in the longer zoom that you would normally find on a larger sensor point and shoot camera and in my opinion it is the perfect travel camera. I also love the Panasonic Image App which allows me to use my smartphone as a remote control. My only complaint and it's not really a complaint is that the camera has so many functions that it can be a bit overwhelming at first, especially if you are not real familiar with the Panasonic menu system. Also, the camera body is very slippery so be sure to use a wrist or neck strap - it will slip out of your hands. I have to comment on the service from B&H. I live in the Vancouver, Canada area and I ordered this camera online early in the morning @1:00am. It was delivered to my office by noon the next day, less than thirty six hours from New York to Vancouver. Not only was the service incredible, but the total price with the free accessories made buying from B&H a no-brainer. I give both the camera and B&H five stars out of five.
