Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 digicam feat/ 5 MP CCD sensor + Leica DC Vario-Elmarit 1:2.8/6-72 ASPH lens w/ charger + battery + 2GB SD card
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 was the company's flagship superzoom digicam when it was released in 2004. It's still a very capable camera. Its 5 megapixel CCD sensor is modest by today's standards but its fast Leica DC Vario-Elmarit 1:2.8/6-72 ASPH lens remains impressive (supposedly many higher megapixel cameras are resolution-limited by lens performance).
The camera is larger than a typical fixed lens digicam (the laws of physics require such a fast zoom to be large) but it's a fun camera to use. We particularly like its dedicated manual focus ring (useful for situations where the autofocus gets fooled by foreground objects)
What's included
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 digital camera
Charger
2GB SD card
CGA-S002A Battery pack (we tested this battery and it is charging but we cannot guarantee its life; we strongly recommend buying a spare Li-ion pack as they are widely available and inexpensive)
Condition notes
We tested this camera and it is working correctly. It is in very good cosmetic condition (see photos) with some minor wear.
