Preface
You don't really want excellent pictures from your Panasonic Lumix
FZ200 – you demand outstanding pictures, after all your Panasonic
Lumix FZ200 is one of the most advanced digital bridge cameras that
Panasonic have produced.
The Panasonic Lumix FZ200 boasts many features like the 12.1 mega-
pixel MOS high sensitivity sensor, the constant f2.8 aperture 25mm –
600mm (35mm equivalent) lens and 12 frames per second shooting
mode. The Panasonic Lumix FZ200 has enough customisable features to
satisfy the most avid of amateur photographers. This fantastic piece of
optomechatronics is only let down by the abysmal documentation that
comes with the camera in the form of the basic user’s manual or the
advanced guide found on the accompanying CD-ROM.
You know what you want to find out is in there, however it is so hard to
find and you don't know where to start. Furthermore the “official” manual
doesn't offer very much information regarding the basics of
digital
photography or photography in general.
This is where this guide book about the Panasonic Lumix FZ200 will help.
It explains the purpose of each of the Panasonic Lumix FZ200 functions
and controls, how you should use them and, more importantly, why.
From the start there should be some information regarding the file
formats, aspect ratios, image size, the priority shooting and autofocus
modes. Many like to dash out with their new camera and shoot off a few
hundred pictures and then come back at a later date to review these
things. So why isn't there a section in the official manual which
summarises this important, foundational, knowledge in its opening
chapters and presenting lots of illustrations showing what your results will
look like when you alter each of these settings?
So if you can't understand what basic settings to set up your camera with,
because you don't understand, for example, how changing ISO or focus
default method will affect your images, then you need this guide.
I don't assume any superior knowledge and won't talk down to you,
either. This guide isn't packed with pages and pages of check lists on
how to take travel picture, wedding pictures, sports pictures etc., but
will
endeavour to give you the information that you will need to take great
images on your own!
