Simultaneously with the mirrorless GX9, Panasonic has also announced the compact super zoom ZS200, whose essence can be summarized in three numbers: 1-inch sensor, 15x zoom, 45mm thickness.
This is obviously a pocket camera for those who love travel reportage and who, above all, like to travel light (the acronym TZ stands for ” Travel Zoom “, also known as the Lumix TZ200 ).
Most of the most interesting technical cues are attributable to optics, equivalent to 24-360mm in 35mm format. It is not easy to create a zoom of this range for relatively large sensors like this, with a sophisticated optical scheme (13 elements in 11 groups, with 5 aspherical lenses, 1 low dispersion aspherical and three low dispersion lenses, for a total of 11 aspherical surfaces). Leica managed to create a packaging so effective to contain the thickness of the camera in just 45.2mm.
