c230k Posted February 24, 2013 Author #101 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Any one have the Panasonic DMW-LT55 1.7x teleconverter, was thinking from reviews might be a nice add on to extend the 600mm to 1020mm without any effect on quality. Enjoy wildlife photography and close is better. Thanks Tom :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c230k Posted April 1, 2013 Author #106 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Has anyone tried using the video and zoom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrimpboat123 Posted April 4, 2013 #107 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Has anyone tried using the video and zoom? I have played with taking HD videos and zooming (in and out) at the same time. There is a slight delay in re-focusing as you zoom in. Once you stop zooming, it re-focuses and all is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c230k Posted April 8, 2013 Author #112 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Thanks. This was my first video, son driving at Daytona speedway, should have had a tripod and do less zooming. Still learning, wish I had done better for him, but never did video. Guess I need to practice. lol Tom :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisin'mama Posted April 19, 2013 #115 Share Posted April 19, 2013 dileep, Beautiful flowers! I was going to go last weekend as per your suggestion, but the darned flu bug jumped up and got me! :mad: I'm hoping to go to Joshua Tree within the next week, so I'll post pictures from there if the flowers are blooming. We've had such a dry winter, I don't know what I'll find, but I love going there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawks11 Posted April 21, 2013 #117 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Great pics Dileep and others. I'm glad I looked back at this thread. I am not the proud owner of a FZ200 yet and was having doubts that I might not be able make full use of it and discovered that there was also a FZ60 and that might suit my limited ability, but after looking here and elsewhere I will focus again on the FZ200 which is about £200 less than it was on release.

cruisin'mama Posted April 28, 2013 #119 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Ok, I made it to Joshua Tree National Park on Friday. Even though we had a very dry winter and there were hardly any blooms this year, it still is a really cool place to go!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawks11 Posted May 1, 2013 #120 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I have the camera on order, next deciision is how big a mamory card. I managed quite well with a 2gb previously with my lovely little Konica Minolta Dimage Z5, even with the occasional video. Lots of sights to see this year with Alaska/Seattle/Amtrak/Chicago in two weeks. Perhaps I should move up to 8gb or would the FZ200 users here suggest more?

Perhaps I should move up to 8gb or would the FZ200 users here suggest more? I have found out that the SD HC cards which are cheaper are for still photos in the main and the more expensive SD XC class 4 are for still and good video as well. I should have managed that yesterday but failed. They are considerably cheaper than the last time I bought one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dileep Posted May 2, 2013 #123 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) I just bought some Samsung UHS-1 Class 10 32GB SDHC cards for $20.99 this week at Frys Electronics! Class 4 is too slow for HD video. Edited May 2, 2013 by dileep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawks11 Posted May 8, 2013 #124 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Thanks to all here for some great photos. I have the camera and just snapped a couple of shots from a bedroom window at an oak tree and a bird box just to introduce myself to the beautiful black FZ200, super autofocus and screen. Now loading PHOTOfunSTUDIO 8.3 PE to see what that is all about. I was using Picassa but things are getting a bit complicated. I believe you use what is avaiable in Windows 7 Dileep for photos and the Windows program for video. Thanks for the dpreview site C230K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dileep Posted May 9, 2013 #125 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I believe you use what is avaiable in Windows 7 Dileep for photos and the Windows program for video. Correct. It may now be part of the free Windows Live install that is pre-installed on some Windows 7 computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
