Having had this camera sat in the cupboard for three years (don’t. I know….) I’ve dug it out and watched this excellent video - thank you, I can’t wait to get practicing! Great useful vid
Considering getting one of these cameras, that was a really comprehensive video of all it's settings and I feel confident I can find my way around it after watching this video. Thank you! 😊
Thank you for taking so much time to make this video! I have watched several other overviews of this camera and I learned more from you than the others.
Remote port is also for connecting a zoom servo which can be acquired through ebay. The servo is a good as broadcast camera servos, exceptional add on.
Great video!!! I learned a lot from it without being overwhelmed. I've heard that you can zoom in further than the standard 480 by using the Optical Zoom feature. How does that work? Do you have a tutorial on using the Optical Zoom?
Do you have another tutorial showing how to set up the wireless so you can run it off your phone? Also - this was very well done and much better than several other tutuorials we have watched
I don’t but I will add it to my list! Until then here is a step by step list on what to do: -Menu -Wrench symbol (NOT the wrench with the C) -Wi-Fi -WiFi Function -New Connection (this step will change to “select a destination from History” after you introduce your phone/camera for the first time where you will then select your phone and head to the steps that are done through your phone) -Remote shooting & view PUT DOWN CAMERA, PICK UP PHONE If you have not downloaded the Panasonic Image App, do this now. -Go to your phone settings -WiFi -select your camera model to connect -open Panasonic app -in a few moments your phone will connect to the camera and provide you a live view and controls! Let me know if you have any questions!
Are you referring to the tab on the touch screen? You should be able to double check the function of the tabs and shortcut buttons on your camera by accessing the menu>wrench with C tab>Fn button set>and check that the ISO button is accurate.
I am new to this model and have come from the fz 82, this FZ2000 is an amazing piece of kit, at the minute i am taking photos and there are not focusing the whole picture, its either the outside or inside of the picture that's in focus can you assist, please
This camera has a larger sensor and better focusing skills so it would not be in the same league. The SX70 is an equivalent to a cell phone but can capture far distances. If you want something better in low light, with video, and with customization, go for the Panasonic
Different countries have different standards and pricing so it can be tricky to tell what is from the manufacturer and what is "grey market", as international products are not always reliable, at least from my understanding.
Thank you Shutterbug 101. In the Sony DSC HX 99 V it is possible to record proxy in the camera. I find that very useful to be able to send videos quickly. Greetings from the capital in the Netherlands.
I have a video going over 4K video, what it is and how it differs with different sensor at the link. Let me know if you have any other questions! ruclips.net/video/kdnWb0pHF5c/видео.html
Heather, You seem pretty open to answer questions. MY BACKGROUND: I've owned a FZ1000 since 2015. Great camera for overall surf and outdoor photography. Coming from the interchangeable lens full frame gear mode I can say the FZ1000 has been more productive than all that heavy, cumbersome, expensive gear. I'll never go back there again. QUESTION 1: Here in January 2023 do you think that Panasonic will come out with an FZ2500 M2 or a step up to a 600mm or 750 mm version to match or exceed the Sony 600mm bridge camera? BACKGROUND 2: I had several Lumix cameras during transition years and had this experience where I saw a huge quality difference between a couple years in the sensor quality. Is the sensor between the FZ1000 and the FZ1000 M2 noticably better even though the sensor size is the same ? I would think the chips are getting better every couple years which would take care of any concerns I have about the 1" sensor, which is actually 6 times smaller than full frame sensors. Still, I get amazing clarity making 24x36 inch prints with FZ1000 files. Any info as to the above questions would be appreciated. Thank You, Woody Woodworth On Instagram: woodworth6081
Hello Woody! So sorry it has taken me so long to answer you! Clearly, it doesn't look like Panasonic has made too much progress in the point and shoot area, but most manufacturers tend to have bridge cameras on the back burner. In regards to the FZ1000 M1 vs M2, I think you are mostly going to see a difference in how the camera functions (better/faster autofocus, etc) than quality. Hope this helps!

Great job. Fastest and more informative than any other video on the fz2000/2500. Learned a lot. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for taking so much time to make this video! I have watched several other overviews of this camera and I learned more from you than the others.
Thank you so much Shutterbug 101, Very good overview of the FZ2500. I learned a great deal. Thank You. Murph
Loved the walk through, it was very informative and helpful.
Super helpful walkthrough thanks so much
Thank you, very good presentation - the best I have seen on learning about this camera!
Very useful knowledge, thanks for teaching, ready to buy fz2500
Thanks. How do you program or assign a Function button? Their manual is awful for explaining such things.
Well done. loved!
Thank you for the video. Nice and interesting to watch. 😀👍
Great review! Thanks :)

Thank you.. This was very helpful understanding the camera. Will be great if you can guid camera setting for wildlife video.
I will add it to my to do list!
Great video as usual thank you
Great intro video, I can't find the one point colour you mention tho, is it called something else on the screen????
In the painters palate mode, it is option 7/8. It will say One Point Color on top of the screen.
Do you have another tutorial showing how to set up the wireless so you can run it off your phone?
Also - this was very well done and much better than several other tutuorials we have watched
I don’t but I will add it to my list! Until then here is a step by step list on what to do:
-Menu
-Wrench symbol (NOT the wrench with the C)
-Wi-Fi
-WiFi Function
-New Connection (this step will change to “select a destination from History” after you introduce your phone/camera for the first time where you will then select your phone and head to the steps that are done through your phone)
-Remote shooting & view
PUT DOWN CAMERA, PICK UP PHONE
If you have not downloaded the Panasonic Image App, do this now.
-Go to your phone settings
-WiFi
-select your camera model to connect
-open Panasonic app
-in a few moments your phone will connect to the camera and provide you a live view and controls!
Let me know if you have any questions!
@@Shutterbug101 Thanks very much!
Hi, thanks for the great walkthroughs! I have a question though, how does the picture performance/quality on this camera compare with the ZS200?
Very similar performance and quality but better video and zoom options.
Thank you…very helpful.
Gracias por el video. It helps me a lot!!!
Great walk through, very precise. Thank you.
Oh just one question that's very frustrating, the shutter takes the picture sometimes before I am ready ?
Check your menu>wrench with a C symbol>page 2/10>half press release, make sure it is off
@@Shutterbug101 Thank you for your fast reply.
😊 Super ! 👍
Finally a good video!
Hi. Great video! Question: why does the ISO tab on the back sometimes bring up the focus area instead of the iso settings, and how can I change that?
Are you referring to the tab on the touch screen? You should be able to double check the function of the tabs and shortcut buttons on your camera by accessing the menu>wrench with C tab>Fn button set>and check that the ISO button is accurate.
I just got this camera today at a yard sale.... For 45$!!!!!! I'm HAPPY 😂😂😭
Wow super price
I am new to this model and have come from the fz 82, this FZ2000 is an amazing piece of kit, at the minute i am taking photos and there are not focusing the whole picture, its either the outside or inside of the picture that's in focus can you assist, please
Can you explain a bit more? is it focusing on a subject, whether out or in? and the rest is out of focus?
Nice nails.. great content. I hope to see a new model soon.. seems like these hyperzooms have died down.. Even ones from Sony and Nikon
Does the fz2000 europe version has continuous recording in 4K and does it do a crop? Is it a big difference in video quality vs G80?
thank you!
I can't get my external mic to record sound on video. I set the Mic Level Adj to -9db. Still nothing. Any advice?
Hi how does this camera compare with the canon sx70 for still picture quality, ease of use
This camera has a larger sensor and better focusing skills so it would not be in the same league. The SX70 is an equivalent to a cell phone but can capture far distances. If you want something better in low light, with video, and with customization, go for the Panasonic
what year did that model come out and will a new one come out soon 🤔
It was released in 2016, but there are no rumors that I am aware of that they will be releasing a mark 2
It seems the trend is currently more towards smartphones and full-frame cameras.
U used a gimbal with this camera ?
No gimbal used for this video, but with the right gimbal, you can (without using zoom)
Good
I bought this camera in 2020 for $1000 Canadian with bundle and extra batteries brand new. Now only camera causes more $2000. Why?
Different countries have different standards and pricing so it can be tricky to tell what is from the manufacturer and what is "grey market", as international products are not always reliable, at least from my understanding.
Is there a possibility for proxy recording?
Not in body, naturally, but there are programs you can use
Thank you Shutterbug 101. In the Sony DSC HX 99 V it is possible to record proxy in the camera. I find that very useful to be able to send videos quickly. Greetings from the capital in the Netherlands.
Yes the HX99 does record proxy in camera through the XAVC S format
can you go over the 4k photo
What would you like to know about 4K video specifically?
I have a video going over 4K video, what it is and how it differs with different sensor at the link. Let me know if you have any other questions! ruclips.net/video/kdnWb0pHF5c/видео.html
Can you make a vidieo I' have a hard time learning high autistic . The Ss and F I have no idea what to do with that
Hello Dennis! Which S and F are you referring to so I can help! :)
Does Fz2500 Hangul support?
