Panasonic’s new New LUMIX DMC-ZS60 travel zoom camera combines 30x zoom with 4K performance

LumixDSCZS60

Panasonic announced today at CES 2016 a new addition to its travel zoom range, the LUMIX DMC-ZS60. The camera’s small and sturdy build means it fits easily into a pocket, and at less than 11 ounces it won’t weigh you down on your next adventure.

The new ZS model manages to pack outstanding performance and a host of practical features into its lightweight chassis. An 18-megapixel sensor is ideal for taking high quality photos in all conditions, and 4K capability means videos can be recorded in stunning detail.

The LUMIX DMC-ZS60’s outstanding optical capability is underpinned by a high-end LEICA lens with 30x Zoom (24-720mm), for performance that far outweighs its compact body. The camera allows you to get closer to the action, without disturbing the subject – perfect for pictures and videos of wildlife, or more natural shots of friends and family.

The LUMIX DMC-ZS60’s 4K video capability enables you to record and relive all those special moments in the very highest quality. With four times the resolution of Full HD, videos reproduce the breathtaking color and detail of every scene, an experience second only to being there in person. The camera offers smooth, high quality video recording in 4K 3840×2160 at 30 fps in MP4, as well as high-resolution Full HD 1920×1080 60p videos in MP4.

Panasonic has also utilized 4K to help take photo accuracy to a new level. For the first time in a travel camera, Panasonic’s 4K Photo function allows you to extract an 8-megapixel still from 4K video (30fps) with amazing precision. The feature provides the perfect solution for capturing those fleeting moments.

Another new addition to the LUMIX ZS range is the Post-Focus feature, which allows you to select the focal point of your picture, even after it’s taken. The LUMIX DMC-ZS60’s outstanding autofocus capability calculates the distance between the camera and the subject, capturing the optimal focus for 49 individual areas within each frame. Once the photo is taken, you simply select the precise area you want to focus on – for example your family in the foreground, or the stunning scenery behind them. What’s more, with the option to export multiple photos from a single shot, you’ll never have to choose between the two.

A dedicated Control Ring gives smooth control of settings such as zoom, aperture and shutter speed, allowing you to concentrate on lining up the prefect shot. Similarly, a 3.0-inch 1040k-dot touch screen makes navigating menus and selecting your preferred setting incredibly quick and easy, even in bright sunlight.

Share your memories
Once you’ve selected your favorite holiday snaps on the LUMIX DMC-ZS60, you can share them with friends and family with the press of a button. Simply connect to a smartphone or tablet to share your pictures on social media, attach them to an email or view remotely on a bigger screen.

Additional features

0.2-inch 1,166k-dot Electronic View Finder
1/2.3″ High Sensitivity MOS
5 AXIS HYBRID Optical Image Stabilization
Contrast Auto Focus with DFD Technology
10fps burst photo mode (full resolution – 5fps with AF)
Face / eye tracking AF
Full wireless control and photography via the Panasonic Image App

The DMC-ZS60 will be available from mid-March in both silver and black for $449.99.
