Re: Are there any compact cameras recording like a good videocamera?
It really depend what you intend to do. I was tempted by the RX100 but the lack of an EVF made me choose the LX7.

The Hx20 and Hx30 are identical in video and stills quality. The Hx30 has wifi. Both cameras are now discontinued by Sony. There is no successor, yet.

About TZ40 can you tell me something about battery? Is it true you can recharge the battery only inside the camera? It is bad.

Yes. You can charge the battery inside the camera. If you purchase a charger, you can also charge the battery outside the camera. Few other Panasonic cameras allow you to charge the battery inside the camera - in-camera charging is a feature, not a deficiency. The new Panasonic TS5 (FT5) uses the same battery as the ZS30 (TZ40). It comes with a charger, but you cannot charge the battery in the camera. |

Re: Are there any compact cameras recording like a good videocamera?
What a pity!
I have just seen many samples on the net and the video I like more is that recorded by Lumix DMC LX7 but it has a so little zoom ... therefore I'm considering to purchase Panasonic Lumix TZ40 or Sony HX20v (now discontinued... mmmm ) with less video quality but with more zoom. I need zoom for my travels. >Mark Rosenzweig Why is Lumix TZ40 better than Sony HX20v? PS: Are there some compact cameras with rotating LCD Display like Sony Alpha NEX-5N?

Re: Are there any compact cameras recording like a good videocamera?
very interesting camera and the video show and EVF, even if it is adding cost this would make it a fantastic little package for travel (let's hope they also added a mic input).

It seems better than every other compact.

Re: Are there any compact cameras recording like a good videocamera?
The soon to be announced HX50v - yes indeed, as you said Robert, a very interesting camera, a fantastic little package for sure. The EVF looks like the EVF I purchased for my NEX 5n which is orders of magnitude better than the EVF on the HX200v and the HX300 so that’s a huge plus. Improved image stabilization...
I want one. Many thanks for posting the video Ron. |
