Your right. I don’t remember where I saw a comparison review that said the fz300 did not have the 2.8 constant aperture.

Yes, there are other stories out there, but, each story is important as those such as your husband gave far extra of themselves in defending ours & others freedoms. The true example of honor and dedication. Your appreciation of that is to be honored, too. I, as well as others I sure, wish you and your husband the best in your journey through life

I was in the same situation. I ended up with a Lumix FZ200 (about $75 in LN condition) for a river cruise down the Rhine. It was the perfect camera for shooting from the boat, especially on overcast or drizzly days. I used the "happy" mode to make things "pop" a little. Note that I am 83 yo, with really bad legs, so it was a little too heavy for shore excursions, where I used a Canon s110. Someone in better shape could probably use the fz200 more.

As indicated by other readers, cameras with larger sensors will probably give somewhat better results, but with many trade-offs (cost, weight, constant f2.8 aperature, zoom reach, and versatility). I found the results from the fz200 more than adequate.

Note that the fz300 is basically the same as the fz200, but with weather sealing, heavier weight, and higher cost.

Hope that this helps.

If I remember correctly, the fz300 does not have the constant aperture. $75 on the fz200. That was a bargain. I guess you’re not selling it.

I second the SONY RX100 VII. The best bridge camera. Have taken it from Antarctica to Namibia
with great results. 24-200 lens. If purchasing also get Alexander White's book on the camera.
Very well written and it covers everything!


Very good camera. And a lot more expensive! The lumix 200 is not the same camera, yes, but has a longer range & constant 2.8 for much less money used. I have a Nikon p900 that does well but is heavier to carry around all the time. Thought the fz200 would fill that niche when I wanted to carry something lighter with the decent range of 24-600. If I am concerned about really good quality I would also have my Nikon d7500 or d7000 with me, both with really good lenses. The lumix 300 is good but does not have the constant 2.8 aperture. The tx 200 can also be bought for under $200 used. I think there are a couple of others on the forum that have the fz200.

The FZ200 is a superzoom bridge camera with a 1/2.3" sensor.


I know it is.

Thought I might look for a lumix d200 for a light weight carry camera with a good reach instead of always carrying one of my heavier Nikon DSLR’s all the time. Comments?

Back in 1983 I came back from a three week horse camping trip with a three week growth. Decided, what the heck ,lets see where this goes. Haven't shaved since; just quick trim. Had a mustache a few years only before that. Beats shaving everyday.

Too many cameras, so, thought this camera might someone might benefit from using it. $250. I pay insuring & shipping via USPS. Has worked fine for me & no know problems. Hope pictures go through this time.

I may be selling my Nikon d5200 for $250. Good camera in at least very good to excellent condition. Just aren’t using it enough since I have several other Nikon DSLR’s. Seeing if there is any interest in this model. Don’t know how to post a picture.
