Description
The Panasonic Lumix TZ300 Compact Camera Black is a high-end compact camera for travel with a one-inch 20.1MP BSI sensor and a Leica 24–360mm equivalent 15x optical zoom lens. It sits above entry-level point-and-shoots, combining a larger sensor with extensive zoom reach in a portable size from our range of Panasonic compact cameras.
The certified Leica zoom lens covers landscapes through to distant subjects with a single all-in-one 15x zoom, which suits travel, city photography, family moments and everyday shooting.
The larger sensor supports high image quality, strong detail and improved low light performance compared to smaller compact cameras, while built-in optical stabilisation helps maintain sharp results when shooting handheld.
4K video recording at up to 30p and 4K Photo at 30fps add flexibility for everyday content creation, with accessible tools such as Post Focus and Focus Stacking providing additional features when needed.
Wireless connectivity and USB-C charging support convenient day-to-day use, while the intuitive control layout is quick and easy to use, without getting in the way of capturing the moment.
PANASONIC LUMIX TZ300 COMPACT CAMERA BLACK IN MORE DETAIL
ONE-INCH SENSOR FOR HIGH-QUALITY PHOTOS AND VIDEO
At the heart of this travel zoom camera is a one-inch 20.1MP BSI CMOS sensor, which captures detailed images with cleaner results in low light compared to smaller sensor compact cameras. Images can be recorded at up to 5472 x 3648, providing enough resolution for cropping, sharing and printing without a noticeable drop in quality.
Night scenes appear brighter with lower noise, and highlights are better controlled in strong sunlight. For anyone moving up from a smartphone or looking for a compact camera for travel, it produces consistently good results without needing to adjust settings manually
LEICA 15X OPTICAL ZOOM WITH 24–360MM RANGE
The built-in Leica DC Vario-Elmar lens offers a 24–360mm equivalent focal range, giving this travel zoom camera the flexibility to capture wide landscapes, street scenes and distant subjects without needing to move. The 15x optical zoom makes it easy to frame shots accurately, whether you are photographing architecture, details or candid moments from further away.
The lens construction includes 13 elements in 11 groups, with aspherical and ED elements helping to maintain clarity and reduce distortion across the zoom range. The power zoom control responds smoothly when composing stills or video, so adjusting framing feels quick and straightforward as scenes change.
POCKET-SIZED TRAVEL CAMERA FOR EVERYDAY USE
Measuring just 111.2 x 66.4 x 45.2mm and weighing approximately 337g with a battery and SD Memory Card, this compact camera is easy to carry throughout the day. It fits into a jacket or hoodie pocket, so you are more likely to have it with you when a decisive moment happens.
The 7.6cm (3.0-inch) TFT LCD features 1,840k dots, providing a clear and detailed view for composing images, checking focus and navigating menus, even in brighter outdoor conditions.
For travel, holidays and day-to-day shooting, the small size and low weight make it simple to take anywhere. This keeps shooting quick and straightforward, whether capturing family moments, visiting a new city or just shooting on the go.
SIMPLE CONTROLS WITH RESPONSIVE AND DAYLIGHT VIEWABLE TOUCHSCREEN
The control layout is straightforward, with a clear menu system and responsive touchscreen that make it easy to get started. Most users can pick it up and begin shooting without spending time working through complex settings.
When shooting, this feels quick and familiar, especially if you are moving up from a smartphone or prefer a point-and-shoot style of shooting. The rear screen remains bright enough for composing outdoors, even in sunlight, so you can continue shooting comfortably in a range of conditions.
5-AXIS STABILISATION SUPPORTS HANDHELD SHOOTING
The built-in 5-axis Hybrid O.I.S. stabilisation system helps reduce blur when shooting handheld, especially across the full 24–360mm zoom range. This becomes more noticeable at longer focal lengths, where even small movements can affect sharpness.
In practice, it keeps images clearer in lower light and when shooting on the move, without needing to raise ISO as quickly or use a tripod. It also supports steadier video capture when walking or adjusting framing. While it does not replace faster shutter speeds in every situation, it makes handheld shooting more reliable across a range of situations.
4K VIDEO AND SLOW MOTION CONTENT
4K recording at 3840 x 2160 up to 30p captures clear, detailed footage that looks good on larger screens and when shared online. It works perfectly well for travel movies and capturing memories where high image quality is preferable.
Full HD recording at up to 120fps provides smooth slow motion playback, helping to highlight fast movement and action more creatively. The zoom range makes it easy to adjust framing without changing position, while stabilisation ensures handheld footage is steady.
FAST BURST SHOOTING UP TO 10FPS FOR FLEETING MOMENTS
Burst shooting is available at up to 10fps, or 6fps with continuous autofocus, which helps when capturing movement as it happens. The 4K Photo feature records at 30fps, allowing you to extract individual stills photos after shooting.
A fast electronic shutter up to 1/16000 sec supports shooting in bright conditions
