The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 is a superzoom bridge digital camera that features:

  • 8.1 megapixel resolution
  • Fast f/2.8 Leica-branded zoom lens with super 18x zoom range
  • Mega O.I.S. (optical image stabilizer) in the lens, reducing blurring by compensating for hand shake
  • Intelligent ISO Control
  • 4x Digital Zoom
  • Multiple modes of operation, including manual modes
  • Optional Raw image format
  • VGA movie mode in both normal and wide aspect ratio
  • Compact size and light weight
  • As with most Panasonic Lumix cameras it uses a Venus Engine, in this case the Venus Engine III.

    The camera has a 2.5" color LCD display and a color electronic viewfinder, and is available in two colors, black (suffix K) and silver (suffix S).

    The DMC-FZ18 became available in the USA in July 2007. The successor to the FZ18 is the FZ28.

    The range of digital superzoom cameras also include models like the Nikon Coolpix P90.
