Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The Panasonic Lumix FZ50 is an extraordinary digital camera. Leica design approved optics deliver crisp images on a 10 Megapixel sensor. Great ergonomics and very responsive handling. Granted, it is not a Nikon or Canon DSLR. You don't want the FZ50 for sports or street photography where there truly is a critical moment that must be captured. But for everything else, the FZ50 is more than fine and making it even better are the auxillary lenses, the LT-55 and LW-55.
The LW-55 is a screw-in converter that provides the equivalent of a 24.5mm lens on the FZ50. Images are surprisingly sharp, though not quite as sharp as those produced by the FZ50 lens. Distortion is very surprisingly minimal. The LW-55 weighs but 11 ounces and is only a few inches square. A bit pricey, yes, but less expensive than a 24mm Nikkor or Canon lens. No, I'm not comparing them directly, but in a relative way.
Take an FZ-50, add the LT-55 and LW-55 and for roughly a thousand dollars you have an approximately 3 pound package that will take you from 24.5mm through 1,137mm. Not bad at all for an everyday camera and especially delightful for travelling. Throw in a lightweight tripod like any from the Velbon line and a third-part flash unit and you've got everything you need. (The Panasonic dedicated flashes are frightfully expensive.) Again, the FZ50 is not a Nikon or Canon DSLR, but for most purposes, it fills the bill nicely.
