RIP little Lumix

I love this little camera, but sadly it has been playing up, on & off, for a while now...but it has now given up the ghost & is kaput 😭

I dont know what Im going to do without it as I used to take it pretty much everywhere I went. I do have a bigger DSLR, but it's not so convenient to take everywhere you go.

I need to buy another little camera ....and am open for suggestions & recommendations, if you have the time...... pretty please 🙏

So sad. I look forward to the response as I am also looking for a smaller camera. Why don’t you ask on the general discussion forum to open the question up to a wider audience!

I have a little Lumix , in fact I’ve had 3 and been very happy with all of them

My little Lumix is my favourite camera, and has a load of dust spots on the sensor and needs to be considered for replacement so I really feel your pain and will follow the advice you get with great interest.

I still have a Lumix Fz47 that I bought years ago and it still works perfectly. It is a bridge camera and mostly used by Max, my grandson, when we go out for walks during his school holidays.

I have a little Lumix TZ80 that I keep in my handbag and I am very pleased with it. Not sure if there is a later version as I have had that particular camera for a few years. I think there is a TZ90 but not sure if that is a follow on from the 80.

If you particularly like the Lumix maybe just put Panasonic Lumix point and shoot into Google and see what comes up with the latest Lumix cameras.

we bought the Sony RX100 for an underwater camera and its been fab in and out of water (in a housing) https://www.sony.com.au/electronics/cyber-shot-compact-cameras/dsc-rx100

@onewing I upgraded from the TZ40 to the TZ90 which takes great, photos. My only complaint is that it’s bigger than the previous models so doesn’t fit in most pockets

[Issi Bannerman]

So sorry for your loss! My wee camera is a Canon G7X. It's great for taking hill walking or somewhere I don't want to cart the big guns! A lovely photo to remember your Lumix by!

[Peter Dulis]

nice DOF

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Poor camera. Cool shot, though.

[Diana]

I had the TZ 80 as my first camera, sadly it also said goodbye!

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Just give it a cuddle and put it on a comfy shelf.

[Paul]

Shame to see a much used tool bite the dust. Perhaps it can be recycled?

[Fisher Family]

Always sad to loose a faithful camera. My Lumix FZ72 bridge camera has recently been giving me problems, and the cost of repair was way too high, so I replaced it with the Lumix FZ82. Even though the controls are very simular, there are still some features that I have struggled with. I hope you find a suitable replacement.

It looks a very smart and compact little phone. I love the white exterior

[Margaret Brown]

I like my lumix too, they are super little cameras

[Pat Knowles]

They are so handy….I just use my phone now but I do miss a proper camera. You will be sad.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

oh that is sad

[Suzanne]

Sorry to hear. I am a great fan of Leica and the D-Lux 7 now my only camera.

[Ryan]

We thank you for your service, Lumix!

[Yao RL]

Never used small one, always afraid missing opportunities for a quality shot.

[eDorre]

What a great shot. Goodbye old friend

[leggzy]

@sangwann @onewing @pusspup @fishers @ankers70 thank you all for your suggestions/recommendations. I will check out the cameras mentioned & do a bit of research & hopefully something will pop out for me.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Ohhh- that's too bad. I love my little Olympus point and shoot. Olympus Tough TG-6 (I've had it for a few years now so the number is probably higher now.) It's very versatile and has a great macro setting.
