I have just sold my FZ330 which was a fantastic camera. Sold as I can not get out to make full use of it now. Personally although the FZ330 is only 12mg pixels the constant aperture feature for me was the best thing a powerful zoom camera could have. Regards the lens zoom only being 600mm it dose have an intelligent zoom setting, not to be confused with digital zoom, that takes the lens to 1200mm. I'll post an image that I took with this setting. All in all I must say I was very pleased with the FZ330 and I urge you to have a good look at reviews for both cameras before deciding which to purchase.

Graham Houghton on YouTube dose some very good reviews of Panasonice cameras and also gives good advice on how to set them up for best results. Worth watching.

Them zoom lenses are incredibly. There's no hiding place with cameras like that these days.
