15 times higher light can be evaluated by Panasonic portable small gun ZS220.

IT 168 evaluation 1 inch negative camera has a pioneer gene from the beginning of design. Because of the low manufacturing cost and the realization of many large-scale CMOS functions, many new CMOS technologies are often first applied to 1 inch CMOS cameras. Today, I will give you an evaluation of this camera-Panasonic ZS220, 1 inch film card machine, which has achieved a zoom of 15 times (24-360mm), which is the first time in the industry and a pioneer. As a product to fill the gap in the market, what is the availability of Panasonic ZS220? What experiences are there that we can't see from the parameters? This is what we need to answer in this evaluation.

Advantages:

1, keep the size of the card machine, the resolution of the telephoto end of the lens is excellent, and the height of the 360mm end is available;

2, 5 axis anti-shake force, telephoto end 1/8s shutter screen is not empty;

3, the focus is fast and reliable, the telephoto end is in place at one time, and the bellows is not pulled;

4, touch focus, drag focus, easy to use and easy to use;

5, support 4K video shooting.

Regret:

1, no flip screen design;

2. The nearest focal length is average.

Evaluation summary:

In the card machine market, there has always been a lack of a product with long focal length and good image quality, and at the same time, the volume will not increase any burden. The appearance of Panasonic ZS220 can be said to fill the gap in this market. For travel photographers, Panasonic ZS220 should be regarded as an extremely worthy choice in the current market, whether as the main machine for relaxing road trip or as a telephoto supplement for the whole system.

PS: This is the author's last article on IT 168 digital video channel. Time is limited, and the latter two advantages cannot be brought into play. Excuse me, Han Hai ~ Thank you for your company in the past year. Goodbye ~

Brief comment on the appearance of Leica Panasonic portable pistol ZS220

▲ Panasonic ZS220 front

▲ Panasonic ZS220 side

▲ The back of Panasonic ZS220

▲ On the top of Panasonic ZS220 fuselage, Leica fonts have obviously improved the texture.

▲ At the bottom of the fuselage, there is a tripod hole and battery compartment.

▲ The top right operation area is equipped with a mode dial and a speed control dial, as well as a zoom lever and a video button.

▲ In addition to the EVF/LCD on button and the flash on button, there is also an AF/AE lock button at the top of the screen, which can be said to be very professional.

▲ On the back of the fuselage, the standard buttons are arranged.

▲ Interface, supporting USB charging.

▲ In terms of viewfinder, the size is not large and the specifications are average. It is recommended to use the screen on the back for regular use.

▲ Pop-up flash supports flash jump.

▲ Front lens group, Leica belief bonus

▲ The battery compartment integrates a card slot, which is the standard configuration of compact cameras.

▲ The battery capacity is 7.4Wh, which is not small, although in my opinion, as long as USB charging is supported, battery life is not a problem.

Generally speaking, the design and workmanship of Panasonic ZS220 are excellent, especially the texture is very good. I can't help wondering if there will be a version of this camera with Leica logo for sale in the future. If it is not enough, consider that the screen does not support flipping. After all, the demand for this positioning machine, such as up-shooting, down-shooting, and even self-shooting, should not be small.

Analysis and evaluation of Panasonic ZS220 small gun with 0/5 times height and light weight.

Undoubtedly, the focal length configuration of Panasonic ZS220 is the core selling point of this camera. The equivalent lens of 24-360mm has a wider wide angle and a longer telephoto than the conventional SLR/micro-camera with a focal length of 18- 135mm used by photographers. For travel photographers, the ZS220 lens with a maximum length of 360mm and the card-shaped figure are undoubtedly the best choice for easy travel to replace Cannon.

So what is the performance of this lens? Let's take a look through actual measurement. We still use the real shot to cut 100% enlarged slices, put the fuselage on a tripod, and turn off all internal optimization, ISO 125 (lowest), all the maximum apertures, and the positions of the cutting center and edge are shown in the following figure.

▲ Schematic diagram of equivalent 24mm terminal interception position

▲ Equivalent 24mm center

▲ Equivalent 24mm edge

▲ Schematic diagram of equivalent 360mm terminal interception position

▲ Equivalent 360mm center

▲ Equivalent 360mm center

It can be seen that the performance of Panasonic ZS220 is very good at the telephoto end, and the resolution performance is satisfactory at both the center and the edge. At the wide-angle end, the performance of the center is obviously better than the edge. However, considering the usage scene, after all, people who buy this camera mostly use the telephoto of this camera. For example, this analytical performance is enough for people to pay for their credit cards.

Anti-shake Evaluation of Panasonic Small Gun ZS220 Both indoors and outdoors are not afraid of shaking hands.

Judging from the previous tests, the resolution performance of Panasonic ZS220 lens should be satisfactory. But for a 360mm telephoto camera, in addition to resolution, anti-shake performance is also very important, which determines the practicality of the camera. What is the anti-shake performance of ZS220? We still test it by actual measurement.

In the next test, the author took a hand-held shot, pushed the lens directly to the telephoto end of 360mm, gradually reduced the shutter speed from 1/60s, and cut off the 100% enlarged slice at the position in the picture.

▲ Intercept the position indication of 100% enlarged slice.

▲ Panasonic ZS220 was shot with 1/60s shutter at the 360mm end.

▲ Panasonic ZS220 was shot with 1/30s shutter at the 360mm end.

▲ Panasonic ZS220 was shot at 360mm with115s shutter.

▲ Panasonic ZS220 was shot with 1/8s shutter at the 360mm end.

▲ Panasonic ZS220 was shot with 1/4s shutter at the 360mm end.

It can be seen that Panasonic ZS220 can still achieve 1/8s shutter even at the telephoto end of 360mm. I have to admire Panasonic's anti-shake technology is really strong. But at the same time, it should be mentioned that the closest focusing distance of this ZS220 telephoto end is 1m long, and the macro ability is really not very strong.

There are no surprises in the rules. Panasonic small gun ZS220 is highly sensitive.

The image quality performance of the camera at high sensitivity directly affects the shooting ability of the camera at night and sports themes. Usually, the better the high-quality performance of the camera, the purer the picture in dark light, and the stronger the ability to improve the shutter speed and condense the moment.

We put Panasonic ZS220 on a tripod to test its high sensitivity. Aperture F8, turn off all internal noise reduction optimization, and output JPEG files directly. Perform 100% magnification slicing on the position shown in the red box in the figure below for each ISO file.

▲ Intercept the position indication of 100% enlarged slice.

It can be seen that the high-sensitivity performance of Panasonic ZS220 is very distinctive, and there is no obvious color noise in the whole process. With the increase of sensitivity, it is mainly the loss of details. Below ISO800, the loss of details is well controlled; И o1600-ISO32000 The details are lost, but they are still within the acceptable range; In ISO6400-ISO 12800, the picture distortion is serious, but this is also the objective limitation of the small bottom camera.

Generally speaking, the high sensitivity performance of Panasonic ZS220 should be said to be quite satisfactory. The details are general, but the overall impression is good, which is in line with the positioning of this machine. First of all, this kind of performance should be hand-held for ordinary night shooting and powerful five-axis anti-shake.
