Hello I want to thank you for the videos. I have a couple of questions that may not be specific to this video. Perhaps you have done a video on the choices available in setting up the camera. I look in the manual it is not helpful. When I look in the menu section it tells me that this camera is shooting in Raw. Raw is the only visible choice. I am trying to set this up for Jpeg, but can not find that choice. I am trying to set this up for someone new to photography and in Raw she would have to use a program to work with the image.... This is not viable at the moment. How do I program this camera for Jpeg? The second question is how can I shoot only in manual mode? Thank you very much.... Danbury in Colombia at the moment

I'm still surprised how advanced the camera is comparing to its cost, amazing. Thank you for every tutorial, I really appreciate it. My pictures are getting better and better.

Hi Graham. had the FZ82 on a tripod today, I set the timer for a 2 second delay but when I pressed the shutter it fired straight away? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

Hi there. Thanks so much for the vids. Very clear and elaborate. I just got a fz80 to take on Safari to the Sergengeti. Do you recommend using iA mode for animal shooting. It's my first camera. Thanks

Another wonderful guide. Thanks so much, Graham. If possible, could you make a tutorial about taking pictures of birds or sports that require a faster shutter speed with this camera? I cannot get something acceptable especially when zooming in.

You may be suffering from two problems here. Lens softness due to diffraction and physical design and subject motion blur. I find beyond 900mm the lens tends to fall off in sharpness and hand holding requires some practice. I am currently doing a full lens evaluation to see just where it is best used/avoided.

This adjustment to the photo styles is somewhat subjective and does depend on where you want to use your images. Images with small dimensions can stand +5 sharpening and -2 Noise reduction. Full size images can benefit from +2 sharpening and -2 noise reduction if no further post processing is wanted. If shooting with the natural photo style you may find that you will need to add contrast of +2 to the setting as well but this will depend upon subject and lighting conditions. It's much easier to do any fine tuning in a good image editor in my opinion

Great video Graham 😊very informative and helpful, especially about the sharpness at f8 ! I've personally sruggled with that as on previous cameras I've shot at f8, f11 ect to get better sharpness and dept of field.
@GrahamHoughton12

Remember its all to do with the size of sensor and its crop factor of 5.4 - meaning that the aperture equivalent at any focal length is 5.4 times that of the full frame camera - so f2.8 on the FZ80 gives the same DOF as F16 on a full frame camera.
@GeoffBeattie

Graham Houghton thanks for that reply, I had no idea it was calculated like this, so am I right in calculating that f8 is equivalent to f43? I shoot mostly sunrise/sunset landscapes, and nearly always on f8 for max dof. Hoping to get out this weekend so looking forward to trying this out :-)
@GrahamHoughton12
6 жыл бұрын
Yes that's right but I would tend to avoid F8 in favour of F4 if you are shooting wide angle (20mm) as this is more than enough DOF and is the lens sharpest aperture at this FL.

In an effort to increase my chances of getting a sharp image with my Fz 2500 I've been trying a few things. The camera group that I'm in chose the zoo for our last outing. All shots were either hand held or I've built a short - 12 ~ 20 in. - telescoping mono stick that screws into the camera which I'll rest on something solid if I have the opportunity. If I think the subject will be still enough, I'll use AS focus with a 2 sec. shutter time & hold my breath. If There's a likelihood the animal will move, I use FF focus with the shutter time delay turned off. I have the Fn4 button on top set as my focus & the shutter set to half press. Any suggestions you could pass on ? By watching your videos on Panasonic bridge cameras I've garnered lots of useful info. Thanks
@GrahamHoughton12

The use of iISO is recommended by Panasonic as it is supposed to analyse any subject motion and increase the ISO to give a shutter speed fast enough to arrest that motion. I've have varying results using this but it might improve your "keep" rate. Otherwise the 1/focal length is the best rule to apply for getting a shutter speed that will help prevent subject motion blur

RAW is the sensor data with a blue print of how to construct the final image. It contains far more colour information and exposure latitude. You should, with some practice, be able to get a better image than the camera processed JPEG (which it does from the same RAW file). Initially you may find that the camera does a better job!
