Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ70 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 60x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3-Inch LCD (Black)

Q: Is this camera good in low light situations?

I have had the FZ70 for about 3 months but I have had great results from taking available low light shots (dimmed incandescent ambient light, indoors on very cloudy days, shadows, evening, darkened rooms at night, etc., no flash) in the iA and iA+ (automatic exposure) modes. I checked after and according to the file properties for those pictures the camera used ISO speeds in the 400-800 range. The pictures are very well exposed and lighting is even, and noise is not an issue. When necessary in iA or iA+ modes, in some low light situations the camera will take multiple exposures automaticallly (HDR) and combine them internally produce a great shot with balanced exposure levels. In the iA+ mode there is a wheel on the back of the camera that allows you to adjust the lightness of the exposure. Plus as you get acquainted with the many capabilities and menus on this camera you can set the shutter, aperture, ISO limits, etc. For those few people who have negative comments about this camera in low light situations, I'm not sure they are using the camera properly. There are MANY ways to adjust the settings for brightness even in the iA and iA+ and other modes.

Q: does it come with lens cover

Q: My digital camera has a delay between pushing the shutter button and the photo actually being snapped. What is the response time of this camera?

Hello Cheshier.. Your question and the answer applies to almost all point and shoot digital cameras. The time elapse between pressing the button and the actual 'click' of the picture is a factor of the time it takes you camera to focus the subject and then the actual picture taking.. In other words it takes time for your camera to auto focus then take the picture. The way you and make it almost instantaneous is to point your camera at the subject, press halfway down on the button. Now your camera is doing it's auto focus. and then wait until you see the picture you want and then press the shutter button the rest of the way. Even the digital SLR camera have to be focused manually before the picture is actually snapped. Hope this helps.
