Very good and clever video. Much appreciated. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Gotta love the 1" zuperzoom FZ1000.

Thanks! That's the comment that keeps KZreadrs adding good videos to the channel!

well dont want to ruin ur day but sx50 is has much smaller sensor as most of the super zooms on the market which as u know leaves alot of noise on low iso images.FX1000 has 4 times bigger sensor size but much smaller zoom ability although i would recommend Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 III (much pricier) which has bigger zoom than FX 1000 and same 1"" inch sensor size .So Canons 10,20,30,40,50,60 is's r out of the competition unless u dont care about noise on ur images cos its my pain in the butt having sx10is which ofcourse is abit worse than 50is but both suffer from noise even on pics made during daytime

marked150 your totally right about sensor size and quality. I would really like to choose Sony over Panasonic or Canon as I think they are technically slightly better in the new Mark v 5 but what has really bugged me about this camera is their unintuitive and overly complex menu system. Its really awkward to quickly change settings and shooting styles on the Sony, they should have put more controls on the camera not buried in the menus. If Sony had the Lumix menu system, and about 4 on camera dials to control the major elements they would have the winner, well in a pocket bridge without the super zoom.

Thank you for your time in doing a video comparing the 2 cameras. Personally I feel the Panasonic is a little overpriced. I know it's got 4k video and that's relatively new so it's expensive. Anyway, would of liked to see some low light comparisons in your video. I believe the Panasonic would of proved to be lot better in lower light situations because of the difference in sensor size. Also there are a number of other features you failed to mention that the Panasonic has over the Canon. Is the larger senor, 4k video and other features worth the extra price over the Canon is for each to decide on their own of course. Good video though, thanks again.

I should have mentioned the Canon sensor is 12 MP 6.2mm x 4.6mm about a quarter of an inch (the Lumix is 20 MP 1" sensor ) image. The extra 66% data in the Lumix is what allows the digital zoom to be smooth without getting as noisy/pixelly

Theres a button on the side where you can slow down the zoom on the Canon sx50 HS!

Usually you pick what sensor size you want and then compare those cameras. If you're looking for 1 inch or APS-C camera then you're not going to consider a 1.2/3 camera. If you start out with a 1.2/3 sensor camera then you want to bump up to the next level whatever that level is. As strange as your 'Run and Gun' comparison is it was very well done. The Canon can't be a better value because it is not in the same league.

I believe you may be choosing comparisons in that manner. So usually you watch your videos by sensor size. I do not. To each her or his own.

Excellent video, thanks very much. I have been weighing up the options on these two for a while and this helps enormously.. Ironically I have just found out today that I can afford neither, so it was a huge amount of research and potential excitement for nothing...C'est la vie...... Sure that it will help some potential buyers Keith

In the age of planned obsolescence (tech improvements? :)) Canon has since come out with their SX60 which means the SX50 is going to be on major discount. I'm sure Craigslist etc will have some soon for half of what they were last year. Still a great camera for capturing action. May not be the primo high end image or 4K but hard to beat for discreet photo and video. And almost small enough to get in your pocket, if you have big pockets! Don't hit the power switch though :)

The new 4K video Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ1000 "bridge" camera is reviewed against the super zoom Canon SX50 HS from a KZread videographers perspective. What works well, most important features and is the best value. I was surprised by the outcome.

I have the Canon and the Lumix is coming next week so we will see what happens. For still photos Im pretty sure the Lumix is going to be quite a bit better.

I have seen on other Lumix FZ1000 videos where the stills can be extracted from the 4K video in the camera. I believe they are saved as JPEG's. I realize the smaller screen is harder to work with but it should save a lot of post processing time. Have you tried this method?

Amos Soma I have but i found that each frame looks sharp on the tiny camera display, but in reality each frame is very different on a big screen. The amount of focus shift is huge, so really need to pick the sharpest frame on a computer screen.

Can you do a comparison with the more current sx60. Nice video.

so you can capture more detail at maximum zoom with the 400mm FZ1000 than with the 1200mm SX50? 3:44 That's good to know.

shawnriv9 If you can wait, there will be a whole bunch of 4K smaller travel cameras this year. Panasonic's Lumix LX100 is a little brother to the FZ1000. It shoots 4K in a jacket pocket sized camera for $900. Its zoom is limited to 25-75mm (or so) with a fast f 1.7 lens. Great travel size and the 4k allows full 8 MP frames to be extracted, fantastic for busy scenes. Sony's RX100M3 is a similar camera and should have 4K this year in a smaller body. I think for you it comes down to the zoom. Nothing comes close to the super zooms of the Canon (now 65X on the Canon..yikes!) but a slightly inferior image. 99% of the people wouldn't notice, plus the content of the picture is more important anyway. But the super zooms have a bulkier profile. If you don't mind the bulk i think the zoom gives more options for framing and capturing from afar. If you don't need the camera right away wait a couple of months, the 4ks will be out and push the price down of the others, and you may want to go 4K.

nice job man

it would have been better if you compared the g3x with the fz1000 since both are competitors in the market being ultra zooms with 1" sensors. havent seen any uploads yet.

I prefer comparisons by price. Then which is best on performance, ease of use etc...getting hung up on sensor size can be just another way to avoid a good camera.

Отличный обзор, спасибо!

Wish you had switched on the digital teleconverter on the sx50, and compared that flag detail. It sometimes seems to defy the laws of physics! 😁

You did a good job of comparing two cameras that have almost nothing in common. I don't understand the choice.

@geraldhenrickson7472

They both take pictures and video. That is pretty common.

Your final decision was a total shock and appears to contradict nearly every test you conducted. Have you been happy with the Canon. Do you plan a similar test with the SX60 and FZ2500, when it comes out.

Sorry for the delay in getting back. I have been watching the FZ2500 with much interest, it is far beyond the SX60 in sensor and video recording, so its not really much of a match. I'm a little disappointed the FZ2500 doesn't have a better lens. The built in ND filters and ability to do D-Log or essentially "RAW" video are both nice features but not compelling enough for me to spend the money...yet. I have had a few quality control issues with the FZ1000 focus system freezing up, it happened a few times for no apparent reason. Yikes! Mind you, the SX60 is half the price, so maybe it is fair to consider it, but once you've gone 4K video, very hard to return to 1080p. The ability to pull frames out of video makes it fantastic for fast moving events. Thanks for commenting.

👍👍👍👍

If my calculations are correct this video confirms my theory. 4K streaming requires a 100Mb internet bandwidth connection speed or higher. I have a 35Mb internet connection. That means I can only stream 1080P/60 content unless I upgrade my broadband package which I'm not willing to do. This is why I am not changing my tv or projector to 4K since 99% of the content I view is via internet streaming.

Hey we can't compare this two because lumix has 1 inch sensor and canon has 1/2.3 size u can't match the picture quality....

Well gosh Nehal, he just did. It is still a comparison of two different cameras that isstill very helpful, even more so with the different size sensors. Now we know how these two compare.

the sx50 compare would have been better against a Panasonic fz200.. of those the fz200 is still the better cam overall with much better video quality

It is obvious FZ1000 is better. But SX50hs is much cheaper than FZ1000. Higher price has higher spec. SX50HS is good camera for its price.

The FZ1000price has fallen to under $500. That works for me and I pulled the trigger today.

I have the SX50, and have been thinking about getting the FZ1000 for awhile. I have the first great little Sony RX100, and was surprised to find that the SX50 photos (despite the difference in sensor size) are probably about the same as the much praised RX100, which I suppose is because of the larger lens on the Canon- I'm not a pro, so I'm guessing that's why! Considering that you can often find the SX50 on sale for around $350 here in the Toronto area, it's a great camera of the price! But alas, I've been reading rumours about a Canon SX60 coming out soon with a 65X, or greater, optical zoom and new additional features!

With all due respect, to compare an 1" camera with an 1/2.3" one, juat because both are "bridges", isn't something professionals do, that's my most humble opinion.

I found it interesting as hell. ANYONE can compare two similar cameras...what is the point...everyone is doing that. Do something different...or be just another uploader on KZread.

The Canon is a middle of the road 'made for the masses' bridge camera, whereas the FZ1000 is a high end enthusiast / professional bridge, designed to even replace a DSLR in certain circumstances. The FZ1000 shits all over the SX50..

xoio 100% in agreement. If image QUALITY is your top priority, with the convenience of a fixed lens compact design, 4K video, extremely fast AF, etc., the FZ1000 is great value for the money. If zoom power and lower cost are your main priorities, at the expense of some IQ, then the SX50 (SX60) makes sens.

Phased Spaces I would agree, but check the price too. Panasonic cost almost triple of Canon. For that amount of money you can get 7D plus add extra few hundreds for good lens it will beat the Pan like nothing. It would make more sense to compare this model of Panasonic to a higher model of Canon or Nikon. Just my thoughts.

@pixelum2023

Yes Sergey, I agree. But the WHOLE point of the Panasonic is that you DON'T need to carry a bunch of lenses and keep changing them all the time, like I used to do with my Canon XT (350D in Europe). You do lose some flexibility, for sure. But you gain a lot in portability and spontaneity. That is excellent for travel for example. Plus the Pana is also a great video camera. Each camera is a compromise between a whole lot of features. None is perfect. But the FZ1000 is pretty close for me.

7 years later FZ10002 is still very noisy.
