Park Picks 2017 Highly Commended: Best Compact Camera

Panasonic have managed to squeeze a lot of technology into this compact camera of theirs - some of which had only previously been available on their selection of mirrorless cameras.

Teaming up with Leica to provide a 10x optical zoom giving an effective focal range of 25-250mm with a f/2.8 aperture at the wide end of the scale will make the most of the 1.0-inch sensor housed within.

The argument for compact cameras has been diminished over the years by the smartphone, however Panasonic have shown that their is validity in carrying one of these with you at all times instead.

Capable of 4K video, post focus and with 5-axis hybrid image stabilisation on board as well as a touch screen LCD sees this camera justify its place in the world of photography - and is a worthy Park Picks winner too.
