Panasonic Lumix TZ99 Compact Digital Camera Black in More Detail
30x LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR Lens from wide to close
The Lumix TZ99's 30x Leica DC Vario-Elmar lens covers a superzoom-type focal range from wide-angle to super-telephoto, with a full-frame equivalent of 24-720mm with a variable aperture of f/3.3-6.4. This allows you to capture diverse subjects including landscapes, portraits, travel, action and even distant subjects with equal proficiency.
When you want to capture extremely distant subjects the camera offers 60x Optical Zoom / Intelligent Zoom to really bring subjects closer in the frame, further extending its versatility.
Leica’s optical formula for the lens includes 12 elements in 9 groups, with 5 aspherical lenses / 10 aspherical surfaces for sharp, beautiful results in a variety of conditions.
20.3MP Sensor and image stabilisation
The Lumix TZ99 boasts a 20.3MP High Sensitivity MOS sensor, which is able to capture detailed and vibrant images, with great results even when you’re shooting in low-light environments. This is complemented by 5-Axis Hybrid O.I.S.+ technology, which effectively reduces blur caused by camera shake, providing sharp handheld shots and smooth video recording at Full HD.
Capture the precise moment
With features like 4K Burst at up to 30 fps it’s possible to capture the precise moment so you never miss the all-important action for a maximum duration of 15 minutes depending on the battery and memory card capacity.
The buffer also supports RAW+JPEG for more than 26 images, with more than 100 images in JPEG only, allowing you to shoot with full AFC at 5fps and savour every detail.
Other photography features include Post Focus, which is a clever technology that allows you to choose the focus point after an image has been taken. Additionally focus stacking is also available, which automatically combines several images together to get focus sharp from front to back. This is especially useful for macro and close-ups, where the camera is focused on very close subjects, but you still want the whole frame to be sharp.
4K 30p and Full HD 120p video recording
For videographers, the Panasonic Lumix TZ99 Compact Digital Camera offers 4K video recording at 30p, delivering crisp and detailed footage to share with friends and family. Additionally, HD high-speed video recording at 120fps facilitates creative slow-motion playback, adding a dynamic element to your videos when you want.
Newly added features for this model include Vertical Video Shooting and a REC Frame Indicator, ensuring you always know when the camera is recording, as well as catering to vertical channels like TikTok, Instagram Stories and more.
Ergonomics and usability
The TZ99 camera features a 3.0-inch tiltable LCD monitor with a high resolution of 1,840k dots, providing clear previews and easy compositions, including low-angle and selfie shooting. The inclusion of USB Type-C charging enhances convenience, allowing for quick and efficient battery replenishment.
Connectivity is streamlined with built-in Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz) and upgraded Bluetooth v5.0, enabling easy sharing of images and remote camera operation via a smartphone. The dedicated Send Image Button further simplifies the process of transferring content to your mobile device, ensuring your memories are ready to share instantly.
USB Type C charging adds ease and convenience, while the included DMW-BLG10 rechargeable battery is capable of capturing up to 380 pictures on a single charge. You can also use readily available SD memory cards with support for UHS-I UHS Speed Class 3 standard SDHC / SDXC.
Further connectivity includes microHDMI typeD, there’s a Stereo / Mono speaker, and even a built in popup flash with Red-eye Reduction.
