Let Intelligent Zoom Bring It Closer
20x Zoom with an Ultra Wide-Angle Lens catches all the action(View Larger)
From stunning architecture to natural landscapes to the funny face your child makes, let Panasonic's powerful 20x optical zoom, with the ZS20K digital camera, bring them into your frame for those special moments. With Intelligent Zoom, extend your reach twice as far, from 20x to 40x, bringing your subjects even closer whether you are shooting pictures or filming a video. And take advantage of the 24mm Ultra Wide-angle Lens - rare on a compact GPS digital camera - giving you a wider range of creative shots due to its viewing space which is approximately 213% larger when compared to a 35mm digital camera.
Shoot like a Pro with these Professional-Grade Control Features on the ZS20 Compact GPS Digital Camera
Go after those pictures-in-the-making with Panasonic's new 12.1MP High Sensitivity MOS Sensor and Venus Engine.(View Larger)
The ZS20K compact digital camera comes with the newly developed 12.1-megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor, and high performance image processing (LSI Venus Engine) provide high speed response, high sensitivity recording and superb image quality to capture even the most fleeting photo opportunities. The ratio of the MOS sensor and the Intelligent Noise Reduction system in the Venus Engine adjusts photos and videos taken in sensitive areas and creates clear, crisp imagery. For low-light images, the camera's Multi-process Noise Reduction System produces dramatically clear photos and videos. Intelligent HDR (High Dynamic Range) in the digital camera's iA Mode overlays several still pictures consecutively shot at different exposure levels and produces a single composite picture avoiding over or under exposure.
Take a Picture and Record It in Full 1080/60p HD with the LUMIX ZS20K Point and Shoot Camera
All-at-once: Shoot and Record in Full HD with Photo Style, Creative Video, MPEG-4, and 3D.The camera's Motion Picture button lets you record while taking photos without having to switch modes. Make videos in full HD 1,920x1,080 60p in both AVCHD Progressive (MPEG-4) and MP4 formats. The 20x optical zoom, with its redesigned side lever for easier zooming access, captures highly natural expressions and fast-moving sports scenes that the naked eye may miss. Play it back in dramatic slow motion and see the difference. Creative Control and Photo Style render your unique style by coordinating colors to your subject and its surroundings. The Creative Video Mode lets you adjust the shutter speed and aperture any way you like when shooting videos.
Snap in Under a Second with the ZS20 Compact GPS Digital Camera

Click in the moment with a quick start-up time of approx. 0.95 sec. and Light Speed Auto Focus. Get 12 fps full resolution photographs with the 12.1-megapixel MOS sensor as you take a series of shots. Snap consecutively at approx. 5.5 fps/2 fps with Auto Focus Tracking. And the GPS digital camera's newly added focus mode AF Flexible resets automatically when your subject moves. Even high-speed burst shooting is possible with the ZS20 camera's electronic shutter. In Intelligent Burst Shooting, the frame rate sets according to the subject's movement. And faster data transfer is possible as the DMC-ZS20 is compatible with the Ultra High Speed-I standard SDHC/SDXC Memory Card.
Advanced Technology Reduces Glare and Minimizes Image Blurring
Minimize blur and produce picture perfect photos with Nano Surface Coating technology.Panasonic's Nano Surface Coating technology, on the ZS20 camera, minimizes light reflection within the entire zoom range (380nm-780nm) thus reducing glare and producing super clear pictures. The LUMIX ZS20's powerful 20x optical zoom can be increased to the 40x equivalent with the Intelligent Zoom function, taking advantage of its Intelligent Resolution technology which brings images to life. The LUMIX camera's POWER O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) minimizes blur, even when zoomed, and Active Mode effectively suppresses handshake vibrations in both still picture taking and video recording.

Customers like the image quality of the camera. They say that the picture quality is excellent, the movies from this camera are really crisp, and clear. The jpegs look a little bit better than from their TG-810 in that the noise reduction is better. The pictures are beautiful, and the LCD is a bit more vivid. It takes HD video, has in-camera HDR, pseudo-tilt shift, and almost everything you can think off.

Well, I couldn't resist this newer upgraded Zs. The Zs20 is my 4th Panasonic Lumix Zs camera (all of them purchased from Amazon), and I can say without reservation that this is the best of them all. I love the fast burst shooting made possible by the CMOS sensor.
The 16x zoom on the Zs8/9 is really great. I've taken some fantastic close-up shots with it. Now I have a 20x zoom. Amazing. It's operates when shooting video too.
Canon's G series, by comparison, has a larger 1:1.7 sensor compared to the Zs20 1:2.33. But, the zoom is very limited on the Canon and the camera is too big to carry around in your pocket - and it cost twice as much (and the older unavailable G9 model is better than the later ones I hear.) Their competitor for this Panasonic is their 20x zoom model SX260SH with a similar 1:2.33 CMOS sensor. Professional reviewers are rating the Zs20 higher than the comparable Canon, which is slightly larger, heavier, and costs more. Everyone raves about Panasonic's Leica lenses, with good reason. The Zs20 is just an amazing camera for the price. It's even slightly smaller than the Zs 7,8/9/10 and easy to carry in your pocket in a thin stretch case. Like the Zs7 (which never cost less than about $250.00) it has the 460,000 dot bright LCD screen, HDMI out, and GPS. It also has more features than the Zs7 or 8/9/10.
Don't expect the price to get much lower. As I recall, the Zs10 (the real predecessor of the Zs20) price came down to about the Zs20 price today, or maybe at the very end, a few dollars less, but I wouldn't wait. Panasonic may refuse to lower the price any further. It's already so heavily discounted, and there is a limit to how low they'll go. If you want the absolute best deal, get a "used" one from Amazon Warehouse. It's hardly, if at all "used," and most likely brand new but returned for some reason and re-packaged. You have 30 days to send it back if there is anything wrong with it. You don't get the one year warranty however, so if that's important to you, but a new one. It's definitely worth the price. I already had an extra battery but you can buy a non-proprietary battery very inexpensively that lasts even longer than the battery that comes with the camera. I also had a wall charger (two - from my Zs7 and Zs9)), so I didn't have to buy that. I'd say that's the only thing Panasonic let down on. It's worth getting a wall charger, but it should come with the camera. This is the first time it doesn't. Don't let it deter you.
I also like the fact that the same batteries used on the previous models work in this one. I prefer to remove the battery and charge it in a wall charger (supplied with the older models), and I can still do that, but the 20 comes with a cable that lets the battery be charged in the camera from a wall plug or a USB port.
The one annoyance with this little gem is the touch-screen controls on the digital display. These controls let you set the focus and the zoom, and click the shutter, by touching the screen. I can't imagine any situation where this would be useful. I unwittingly activated these controls by touching the screen and as I handled the camera I unknowingly took dozens of shots of my hand, the inside of my pocket, the ground, the side of my pants, and like that. You can't turn this obnoxious "feature" off! I've learned not to touch the screen when handling the camera, so it isn't a problem any more, but it still diminishes my esteem for the otherwise admirable engineering job that Panasonic did on this camera.
This camera -- actually, already its predecessor -- convinced me to dump the 50-lb DSLR outfit I had been lugging around for several years. I don't need it. For me, the ZS series has disrupted the DSLR market much in the same way that DSLRs disrupted the film SLR market. Who needs all that heavy clunky expensive gear? I can do 95% of what I did with the DSLR, and a great many things I couldn't, with this little gem that fits in my shirtpocket.
