The compact TZ 99 impresses with a powerful 30x Leica zoom (24-720mm) featuring 5-axis image stabilization and a 20 MP resolution, making it suitable for a wide range of subjects, from playing children to fantastic travel memories. The integrated hybrid contrast autofocus with DFD technology ensures precise and lightning-fast focusing. It records videos in 4K at 30 frames per second or in high-speed mode at an impressive 120 frames per second. With the 4K function (including 4K photo), post-focus, and focus stacking, capturing extraordinary shots is incredibly easy. The TZ99 features a 180° tiltable touch monitor, perfect for comfortable ground-level perspectives or selfies. Thanks to built-in WiFi and a dedicated function button, transferring images to your smartphone is quick and simple. Additionally, the camera can be controlled via an app. Finally, a multifunction ring on the lens and the ability to shoot in RAW format complete the extensive features of this versatile camera.

The Panasonic Lumix TZ99 delivers great shots and good quality 4K videos in good light. However, the image quality suffers in dim light and with a high ISO setting. It is better to use the built-in flash. Beginners will get on well with the simple operation. Too bad: The Lumix TZ99 does not have a viewfinder.
