Sharing your pictures on your large screen TV has never been easier with the WiFi Direct™ function. You can display images on a TV that supports the Digital Media Renderer (DMR) function of the DLNA standard (Digital Living Network Alliance) like the Panasonic VIERA HDTV.

The ultimate travel camera has to be small, but we've taken it even further with creating the world's slimmest camera in its class*1. The DMC-ZS30's state-of-the-art optical design keeps it thin while a powerful 20x optical zoom lens*2 brings your subjects up close capturing natural expressions of people and animals along with amazing sports photos.
*1 As a digital camera with the optical zoom lens of 20x or more, as of January 7, 2013.
*2 35mm camera equivalent: 24-480mm.

If you want to make breathtaking landscapes, environmental portraits, cityscapes, or shoot in a tight space, the 24mm ultra wide-angle lens* on the ZS30 is what you've been looking for. It's rare to find a compact camera with such a wide-angle, making this camera stand out among the rest. The lens delivers incredible image quality while giving you a wider range of composition possibilities with approximately 213% larger viewing space compared to that of a 35mm camera. The high-quality LEICA DC lens minimizes distortion at the wide end and delivers spectacular depth and detail.
* Converted to standard 35mm camera equivalent, at the wide-end.

If the 20x optical zoom is not long enough for your photographic journey, the Intelligent Zoom uses digital zoom technology with minimum deterioration of image quality thanks to the Intelligent Resolution technology. The 20x optical zoom virtually extends to a 40x zoom equivalent.

Whether you are shooting still pictures or video, the DMC-ZS30's O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) captures clear, sharp images even in low light scenes or when using the camera's powerful zoom. The O.I.S. suppresses vibration and hand-shake that happens when you press the shutter button or when shooting at night with a slow shutter speed. When shooting powerful zoom shots, which are especially susceptible to hand-shake, the O.I.S. will keep the shots still.




Video recording can be easily started with the press of the Motion Picture Button making it convenient for switching between photo and video shooting instantly.

If you want to edit your videos on a computer or upload them to a website, the DMC-ZS30 can record full HD 1,920 x 1,080 30p (NTSC) videos in MP4 format.
The powerful 20x optical zoom with 2-step zoom function is available in video recording to capture subjects in the distance and bring you closer to the action.
Panasonic is ready to take the ordinary and make it extraordinary by fueling your creativity with the Creative Control feature (in the recording mode) and the Creative Retouch feature (in the playback mode). These features take simple or complicated scenes and make them easy to capture in a great photo. Simply set the camera to match your scene and it uses sophisticated presets to optimize the camera settings resulting in photos you'll be proud of.

Panasonic has developed the industry's first Creative Panorama functions. Discover 12 filter effects that will take your panorama images to the next level with creative and dramatic results.

The Creative Control feature for video matches the colors to your subject and surroundings. In Miniature Effect Mode, the video you record is played back 10x faster making it more comical and fun to watch*.
* Sound will not be recorded with Miniature Effect in Creative Control Mode and approximately 1/10 of the time period is recorded. (If you record for 10 minutes, the resulting motion picture recording will be approximately 1 minute long.)

The new 18.1-megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor utilizes both high quality image recording and high speed signal processing. The Wavelet NR (Noise Reduction) system*1 in the Venus Engine enables deliberate noise reduction without missing low-frequency noise by enlarging its detection area by approximately 64x*². Edge Smoothing NR technology also helps to render smooth edges even in image recording at higher ISO settings.
*1 Works in high sensitivity image recording at ISO 800 or higher.
*2 Panasonic comparison with DMC-ZS20.
With the newly developed MOS sensor, the DMC-ZS30 will shoot 10 fps* in 18.1-megapixel full resolution with a mechanical shutter, and 5 fps with continuous AF. You can even take a series of shots, choose the ones you like the best, and delete the rest.
* Max. 6 images.

When you need even more frames per second with higher-speed burst shooting, you can use the electronic shutter and achieve 60 fps.

When photographing a fast moving subject, but you're not sure how to set the camera, Intelligent Burst Shooting in the iA Mode will automatically set the frame rate of burst shooting according to the subject's movement making it easy for you to achieve gorgeous photos.

*1 The number of recordable images depends on the memory card size and battery life.
*2 The focus, exposure and white balance are fixed with the first picture for the burst.
*3 The range that can be recorded will become smaller.
The DMC-ZS30 is ready to shoot when you are. With its quick start-up time and Light Speed AF the DMC-ZS30 helps you to never miss a moment.
Light Speed AF helps catch even the most fleeting photo opportunities. You can quickly focus on moving subjects such as sports, animals or kids.
The 24mm ultra wide-angle 20x optical zoom LEICA DC lens is outstanding for its exceptional performance, image quality and versatility. This ultra-thin lens works in concert with the camera's slim body. Passing Leica's
renowned stringent standards, this lens delivers stunning clarity with minimum distortion and flare.
Panasonic's black box technology Nano Surface Coating boasts an extremely low reflectance ratio and allows the DMC-ZS30 to deliver exceptional optical performance with stunning clarity by minimizing flaring and ghosts.

Reach new heights in speed and creative possibilities with your videos. Capture all the action while recording full HD 1,920 x 1,080 videos in AVCHD Progressive (MPEG-4 / H.264) format. Featuring 60p (NTSC) full HD recording
capability, subjects with fast motion or fine details will be reproduced clearly.

* These are standard times taken at a temperature of 23°C (73.4°F) and a humidity of 50%RH. The time available for recording varies depending on the environment, the interval between recordings, and the manner of use. Actual recordable time is the time available for recording when repeating actions such as switching the power supply [ON]/[OFF], starting/stopping recording, zoom operation, etc.
1080/60p / 1080/50p (progressive) conveys about twice the information of 1080i (interlace) recording. It creates intricate detail and silky smooth motion. Even when subjects move quickly, afterimages are minimized to create more natural videos.
Reproduces all image data in a single picture.

The POWER O.I.S. has been upgraded and includes HYBRID O.I.S. + for video recording with new 5-axis correction that detects and compensates for the camera's 5 types of movement — horizontal, vertical, axis of rotation, vertical rotation and horizontal rotation.

The 5-Axis Correction let's you move along with your subjects and still achieve clear, sharp images. The camera will automatically compensate for any movement that would have resulted in a blurry photo from walking and shooting at the same time.


The vertical and horizontal hand-shake that often happens when you shoot handheld in low light scenes is corrected resulting in sharper images.


Even what is known as low-frequency blurring, such as hand-shake caused by breathing or from slight movements of your arm, are corrected to give you a clear image with superior details and sharpness.


A new and exciting feature is the Level Shot Function that detects the horizontal line of what you are recording and keeps that line level even when the camera is tilted. The camera delivers stable videos even when recording from the hip or shooting from a higher angle where you can't line up the horizon yourself.

On the left is the unstable one-handed video recording. In the center, the camera detects the horizontal line and makes the correction for you. On the right you'll see the perfectly horizontal video you just shot.
Panasonic has incorporated a stereo zoom microphone resulting in videos with the high-quality stereo sound of Dolby® Digital. This delivers realistic sound to your videos. Mechanical noise caused by the camera's zooming operation is suppressed to improve the clearness, and the Auto Wind Cut function blocks out most noise from background wind making the voices you are recording stand out.

The DMC-ZS30 records high-speed videos at 120 fps (NTSC / HD) / 100 fps (HD) or 240 fps (NTSC / VGA) / 200 fps (VGA) in MP4 format. This allows you to capture scenes that can't be seen with the naked eye, and play them back in dramatically slow motion.
Never miss a moment in your photos, videos or both. While shooting an HD video, simply press the shutter button and the camera will shoot a photo with 13.5-megapixel resolution as it continues to record your video*.
* The picture aspect ratio will be fixed to 16:9

The GPS (Global Positioning System) in the DMC-ZS30 complies with GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite System), taking advantage of it's increased number of satellites, giving you better accuracy.

You can copy the map data of designated cities to an SDXC/SDHC/SD Memory Card from the included map DVD. This allows the camera to recognize approximately 90 countries worldwide on a scale of 1/25,000 or better.

You can even retrieve geographic information in places you are unfamiliar with to know where you are and what landmarks are located nearby for photo possibilities.
Your geo-tagged images can be played back on the map, and with the multi-touch screen, the map is scalable by pinching in and out.

A new and exciting feature allows you to log locations for memorizing travel distances that can be displayed on the camera's map. You can also output to Google Earth.

The LUMIX's GPS shows the name of the Country/Region, State/Prov/County, County/Township, City/Town/Village and Landmark using the internal data to give you real-time information on your location when taking photos.

The photos and videos with the location names are automatically sorted in a virtual folder alphabetically in the camera allowing you to quickly find them.
