Re: Cat Box FZ8 Sample Photos
Well if they don't come up and change the sensor by production time, there can't be any difference. I don't know what their goal is but whatever it is, they are certainly making, or not making, progress toward it.
If they don't do something very soon, like as in now, I don't expect to see the Panasonic brand continuing much longer. Someone on the dpreview forum said they should sell the line to Fuji, and let them make a real camera out of it.
But in reality maybe they should contract to Fuji for some of their sensors. But! they would still have to revamp that monster Venus lll beast.
My sons FZ7 has the old Venus ll engine, and 6mp sensor, and does a better job than the new FZ8 that is supposed to replace it. I think from the photos I have seen in the past from the FZ5, it has both beat.
