Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50 is a superzoom bridge digital camera by Panasonic. It is the successor of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ30. While the FZ30 was a major upgrade of the FZ20 both internally and externally, the FZ50 differs relatively little from the FZ30. The main differences are: * Higher resolution 10.1-megapixel CCD * Venus Engine III processor (with its characteristic unusual noise reduction algorithm) * 2.0-inch flip-out 207k high resolution LCD (FZ30 has 235k) * TTL Flash hot-shoe
