There’s options for quality, and file type, so that the FZ18 can do JPEGs, RAW or JPEG and RAW. There are two modes of optical stabiliser which is handy for such a massive zoom, and an intelligent ISO mode, which sticks the ISO range in auto, but limits the sensitivity to a specific setting.

ephotozine Review the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 and gave out”What’s good about the FZ18 is the way it works. Everything is clear and straightforward, even the important stuff like ISO control which is in the menu system, can be rapidly accessed and changed. The zoom is fairly quick and has an enormous reach. The image quality is decent, if not top rank, but crucially, it’s still perfectly fine at the end of that very long zoom. Colorus tend to be bright and punchy, and the scene modes give quite noticeable results compared to the standard shooting modes. The EVF is very handy to have in bright sunlight and the exposure compensation and the Exposure lock buttons enable accurate exposures and adjustment to be made naturally and quickly.”
