Panasonic's newest ultra zoom camera is the FZ18. It has a 18x zoom. For film this would be a 28mm to 504mm range. It will photograph something and make it look 10 times larger than we see with our eyes. Here are two photos that show this range.The 18x zoom can be misleading to a buyer as it is referring to the focal length difference in the lens. As the wide angle view of this camera, is wider than most digital cameras, the 18x zoom can be easily miss understood. The focal length in this lens is 4.6mm to 82.8mm or 18x. There are many things to like about Panasonic's new FZ18 and we have them in stock. Click on the pictures to make them bigger. The deer is in both photos.
