That moment you want to remember can occur at any time, and Panasonic FZ300's exclusive 4K PHOTO technology uses 30 fps in high resolution 4K Ultra HD Video to extract them as photos. You'll never miss that moment again with the Panasonic FZ300 4K 24x Long Zoom Digital Camera.
The 4K Photo function can be used in three different modes, all allowing you to capture that perfect moment at a high burst rate of 30 frames / photos per second. With 4K Burst mode burst shoot 8-megapixel equivalent images from 4K video as long as the shutter button is pressed. The 4K Burst S/S (Start/Stop) mode allows for 4K burst recording as 4K video then play, pause, and extract any frame / photo as an 8-megapixel equivalent image later. Lastly, the 4K Pre-Burst starts recording one second before and after you press the shutter button, which is perfect for capturing unpredictable moments.
4K video delivers a far more intense viewing experience that is four times larger than Full HD, resulting in a much higher level of detail.
