Here's a photo specifically of the lens, which will hopefully alleviate any lingering concerns.

It is as stated. It came with the camera, I've used it with this camera.

We were there this past November. You WILL take tons of photos, what a place. And you will likely walk. A lot. For me, I so wanted to take my larger Lumix G9 and lenses. I decided to go more compact and pocketable, so I took my Sony RX100 VII instead. I know that wasn't your question as such, but do consider a small quality camera.

I'm a big fan of "leading lines". I enjoy seeing perspectives, foreground, background.

My beloved Nikon D300 is up for sale. Since moving to the Lumix M43 system I just don't use it much anymore.
Everything is in very nice condition, the lens barely ever used.
Included is the Nikon 18-55 DX VR lens, 2 batteries, original manual, charger and a couple Compact Flash memory cards. I'll also throw in a learning guide book.
Once a near flagship, alas times change - as does the user - and a rig that once pushed $1900 is for sale at $270. Shipping is not included.

It's always remarkable how a blanket of snow can change the entire look of a landscape.
That's not a snowy brook. It's the drainage culvert along the side of our gravel road.

The trip to Switzerland is behind us, and after 889 images, the Sony did great. Glad I brought it.
One hard lesson I should have known is that changes to "exposure compensation" hold even after turning the camera off and back on. Oops. Glad I had that series in RAW too.

I know the G9 still gets dinged for bird photography, but there was a firmware update over a year ago to specifically address this. A trip to the coast nailed seabirds in flight just fine. I was impressed, and the GAS syndrome to move to Olympus subsided to zero.

There is also an option to configure the new PC offline. It's a small checkbox in the bottom left of the screen in one of the set up windows. Purposefully small print.

What a powerhouse this camera is. As others pointed out, a lot to familiarize yourself with. I come from many years as a Nikon user, then the Lumix, including the G9 too, so there's a menu format to get used to.
Very impressive so far. Thanks for all the comments.

Well folks, you "talked me into it", haha. The Sony it is.
I'll be selling my ZS100 Lumix. On a side note, KEH offered only $76! MPB offered $235. Yet used, both companies sell them used at about the same price. Just an FYI that KEH may not always be the best choice for a trade in, and worth looking around.

[quote=PHRubin]When I went on a cruise back just before Covid broke, I took my DSLR and a pocketable, the Lumix DMC-ZS100. The Lumix was used when I left the ship and didn't want the size and weight of the DSLR. It worked out quite well, but I would have been happier with the DC-ZS200.
Why do you think the ZS200 would have been better over the 100?

I'm sure appreciating all this great input. Thank you.

How do you all like the Sony's handling?
It looks slick and slippery?
