I have gained after 5 years of satisfaction with the Lumix FZ18 a FZ200. I am extremely disappointed by the photos. So bad results, I have never received. The image noise, even at ISO 100 and the occurrence of artifacts in the photo is much higher than with my FZ18. I had thought that a 5 year younger camera would do noticeably better shots. The FZ200 has excellent facilities and is extremely fast. If the picture quality at least the same as that of the FZ18, you would receive a perfect bridge camera. But if I had to decide against it. Too Bad.
