- Firstly apologies for the distorted sound- my recently repaired FZ2000 is showing the audio level is correct at -6dB but the output is obviously far too high - will need to go back (again!)
In this video I take a look at some accessories that you may want to consider to enhance the experience with the camera.
All the links to the products will be in the free to download e-book from my website once I have updated the contents.

Wow, you should be getting paid by the camera manufacturer! Thank you for taking your time to create these videos!
I wish! thanks for the comment
Lots of great info, thanks! I have a light carbon fibre travel tripod that I drilled a small hole in the bottom of the centre tube (The vertical post the camera is mounted to) and added a hook (carabiner would work well too). I hang my camera bag or backpack from this when using the tripod and the extra weight in the centre of the tripod keeps wind vibration and movement down, and also keeps my camera bag off the ground!
Thank you for your videos and for being so thorough. Excellent work
Totally in love with this series, I can never thank you enough for helping me out!! You are totally the best!! I really loved your calm and detailed explanation the whole time!! Hope to meet you somewhere!!
thanks graham, very nicely explained, great detail, easy to understand with your clear speech.
Just a truly amazing and informative video, saves so much time looking for potential accessories and often making costly mistakes in the process.
As so many others have said an excellent and informative video. I think I am now convinced this is the camera I will go for and part of that decision is based on having such good support material. Many Thanks and keep up the good work!!
Very helpful video again Graham, thanks.
Thanks Graham, I searched for instructional videos for this camera for a while and your series is certainly the best and most helpful by far.
great, thank you for the feedback
Great video as always Graham.
Nice video Graham excellent tips and gadgets!👍
Thanks Gary.
im glad i ran into ur video i got the DC-FZ80 that Adapter for the Viewfinder would be great.
Wonderfully informative. Thanks so much.
thank you
I have learnt so much from you videos, many thanks for them. I am interested in the accessories and would like to get the raynox macro lens. Do I get the 150 which you recommended, or a 250, do I need an adaptor for the FZ80? Thanks in advance.
Excellent video..thankyou
Great information thanks heaps stay safe
Thank you so much for the video.
Hi, Thanks for the video!
Kind regards 💚
Followed you here from the earlier excellent series on the Lumix FZ200.
Could you just clarify details about the adapter that you're screwing on to the lens hood for telephoto shots? There doesn't seem to be a link in your e-book and I'm not entirely sure what term to use to search for it… Thank you.
p.s. you said you would be explaining the 4k feature in your first video, i couldn't find it running through your videos ?
Very very helpful
Great video..
Hi Graham, I know that the post-focus feature of Fz-80/ Fz-82 is a straight forward setting but I can't seem to get a good background blur or bokeh. Could you a make a quick tutorial on post-focus? I'm sure I am missing something. Thanks in advance.
You showed a 77mm hood extender in the video. Do you have a link to one to purchase in the U.S.? Thanks
Hi Graham, congratulations on your video valuable informations on it. I just couldn’t find a way for the battery eliminator for the FZ82 or similar over the internet, I know you mention you did yours by your self. Could you help me out in how to do it? Thanks mate! Have a good one!
You've got that FZ2000 video quality on point though. I've just bought one as my first 'proper camera' and results have been, well... Interesting. Great video man!
thanks, just need the audio problem resolved.
Graham Houghton - I suppose you've always got that nice external recorder if worst comes to worst, but I know what you mean! From what I've seen of your videos though, you seem to be quite handy with electronics anyway haha.
If you don't mind me asking - when your FZ2000 is powered off, if you face the lens straight out in front of you and then towards the floor, does it sound like something internally is moving? Thanks in advance.
yes that's the floating OIS element. fear not it's meant to do that.
Graham Houghton - Cheers for that! I only noticed it yesterday and didn’t know if something was up, as previously it wouldn’t turn off (screen froze on ‘Lumix’, lens didn’t retract) and resulted in having to remove the battery to reset it... I’m glad to know I don’t have to take it back though.
Ive noticed that shooting videos with the fz82 digital camera and talking that the volume on play back isnt really loud is there anything u can do to make the sound better quality?? Any information u can give me would be amazing many thanks
Hi Graham, I ordered this camera online (am still waiting on it) to take headshots for my barbering work. Is this camera suitable for that?
Hi I purchased the 55mm lens hood which you recommend in your video, can you recommend a suitable lens cap please.
Graham, I don't seem to have the link to Part 7. I have Part 6, and now Part 8. Did Part 7 have a different title?
I was looking for it
Hey Graham,
Great video. I am in need of a battery eliminator for my fz80. I'm in Australia. Can you help point me to a brand or manufacturer that makes them or possibly have any directions on how to make one myself?
Cheers,
Mark.
been watching all your vids on the FZ80 and thank you they are great , do you have a recommendation for a lens for solar shots
The cheapest way is probably a no10 electric welding glass filter but mylar film for this purpose is available to cut to size and will give better results
I can't see any link to the third party batteries/battery charger, pls do you mind sharing that?
How long does the included battery last while recording in 4k and does the battery gage give you an accurate reading?
can you use third party lens hood as long as it is 55mm?
Your link to the Nikon DK20 eyecup on amazon USA is incorrect.
Regardless of the aspect ratio of the picture during recording, a RAW image recorded on this
camera is always recorded with the aspect ratio set to [4:3] (4896×3672), but if you perform [RAW
Processing] from the [Playback] menu, the picture will be processed with the aspect ratio fixed as
that at the time of recording. A small side of the reffered lens hood is still in a RAW image because of the aspect ratio [4:3], however if every photo will be processed with the aspect ratio 16:9 the vignette will disappear . The only sad is that each photo have to be processed separately. However the camerra is value for money.
I have been looking for bmb9e batteries with charger for fz82, I'm finding that some adverts have bmb9 even though I seen in the ad bmb9e. Are both usable in the fz82?
Bye the way I would like to say I very much like your TH-cam videos 10/10
Very nice and interesting video...🧡.... Please a link from the lenses and all other parts to purchase ...... Thank you very much! Bitte auch ein Link der Batterie Kabel für Powerbank 👍👍👍.......Do the parts all fit on the Lumix Panasonic DC-FZ82 ? You'll excuse my english .......
may want to update the link for the dk 20 eyepiece USA its a pic of screen protectors and unavailable
Hello Graham, thank you for all the videos and information about photography. I do enjoy your videos a lot and appreciate all your effort that comes with it. Since my old bridgecanera, a Canon Powershot SX50 HS broke, I decided to buy the Panasonic Lumix FZ82. I do also have the Sony Alpha 6000 but need the bridgecamera for bird and other wildlife photography because of the zoom! Could you please share a link or a product name of the added lens hood for long tele photo that matches the recommended wide angle lense hood in your video? Thank you, and best of luck, greetings from Silvia in Germany
Hi Graham, did you screw a tele lens hood the size of 7,7cm into the wide angle lens hood ? In the video you said adapter lens hood. Can you recommend one? I got my new lumix fz82 last week and so far got myself a wide angle lens hood. About the tele lens hood I'm not sure which one fits. Hope you can help. Greetings Silvia
Is part 7 no longer available, or is it simply an enumeration error?
Greetings, On my Fz2500 I have the touch-to-focus turned off. If It's turned on the tip of my nose will touch the upper left corner of the screen - changing my point of focus. Are you aware of an add on eye cup that will fit my camera ? With the added thickness maybe my nose wouldn't touch.
In the worst case scenario, couldn't you just move/flip the screen?
Hi graham, can I just buy the 55mm wide angle lens and it will fit on the camera? I'm a beginner lol.
Yes but only choose a 0.7x adaptor not the 0.43/0.45 as they have too much distortion.
Hi great info I bought the lens pen eye cup and 55m wide angle hood what is the 77mm one from ??
It's a 72mm hood in a 55mm to 72mm step up ring similar to the amzn.to/2NBmrgE and amzn.to/2NyiUQe. Only use at telephoto as it will vignette at wider focal lengths
where is your ebook please?
Any recommendations for the FZ2000? I bought one of those which use a magnet to hold the eyepiece to the tripod mount and it turned the touch screen off as soon as it neared the back of the camera....I thought it was something to do with the eye sensor but I turned it off and it was still the same. I brought the eyepiece to the screen without fitting the tripod mount and it worked fine.
Turn the auto-switch feature off and just switch between manually?
I did do. I bought a Swivi VF-3 that doesn't use a magnet system and it works fine.
David Lewis - I'll keep that in mind incase I end up getting one myself. Cheers.
Graham sir you are great turolest I like you sir
** Hi I have a dc fz82 and looking for a fisheye lens that may fit, if anyone can help or advise me one one to buy would really appreciate it. Only getting started so don’t want to pay a fortune **
I made an impulse buy last year and in a sale bought a FZ72, mainly because the suoerzoom. I have regretted it ever since. My main gripe is that there is no way to remotely trigger it (or is there Graham?).
Craig Hunter if it has Wi-fi like the fz82 there is the possibility of downloading the Panasonic images app to a smartphone, connecting the two, and using your phone as a remote!
Which lense would I need for wildlife captures . I have the Panasonic lumix fz82.
You don't need additional lenses as this is 20 -1200mm far more than most wildlife shooters need.
I don't like using a nect strap would the Spider pro hand strap fit the camera?
I don't see why not the FZ80 has the strap lug and the base plate will fit the 1/4 tripod socket on the camera base palte
Where can you get the hood tht fits onto the 55mm? Thank you
It was from Amazon and I’ll be showing it hopefully in tomorrow’s video
Wheres the link to the magnifier Graham i cannot see it
I haven'y updated the e-book links yet but hope to get that done today 13th Sept
Hello there. I have a Panasonic FZ82 and the flare is killing me. I cannot make a photo/video at the sun with zoom without those violet flares as you can see in this video from my channel: Sa ne grabim! Sfanta Liturghie incepe. | Hurry up! the Holy Mass is starting.
If I buy a tulip lens hood do you think that it will solve the problem?
Can someone please tell me if this is a good first ever camera that has quality good enough for beginners?
The quality is "good" but it is a rather limiting camera and you will find it hard to achieve great looking images without some experience of the image creation process.
I would steer you towards an entry level micro four thirds camera or DSLR as the best way to begin shooting. Many great second hand cameras on the market, no need to buy new ones.
@@GrahamHoughton12 ok thanks very much for the info!
Where is tele lenz?
Hi Graham, I would like to use the FZ82 for extended periods of video recording when shooting myself surfing. I will be using an auto follow system attached to my tripod so that it follows me whilst I surf. As I will leave the camera on for extended video's- how could I extend its battery life to achieve this- w/o access to mains power supply? Thanks, Noah.
I think you need a DC coupler and a battery bank that can provide 8.4v or somewhere around that (normally it provides only 5v for cell phone.) Maybe you can buy them on ebay.
Can I shoot slow motion video lumix fz 80
240 fps in vga and 120 fps in 1080p
2:58 You wrote 55mm, but on the filter is 58mm. Why is that?
that picture was an illustration only, I do say its 55mm for this camera
But you will get problems with U 10 or V 30 cards by shooting 18 megapixels at serial shooting at medium or high speed. sorry for my bad grama im fraom Germany xD
Lo veo con el cabello más rubio.

200th like!
Nobody can't find your links
I haven't updated yet will do today
I bought a FZ80 and returned it after 1 week. The sensor is simply too small to ever get any kind of decent quality out of it. I returned it and bought the
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ2500 model which has a 1" sensor and 20x zoom, but a much better lens and overall far higher quality camera. It's well worth the extra money for the huge quality improvement. I would strongly suggest returning the FZ80, it's simply not worth sacrificing the quality you could be getting from a larger sensor camera. No amount of adding lenses or changing settings will compensate for the tiny little "toy camera" sensor of the FZ80.
Buts it’s 3-4 times the cost
I agree, I have given up with my fz80/82 as I find it impossible to get a clear, in focus image no matter what I try. I do use a tripod but it makes no difference. I wish I had never purchased this camera. I am not a pro but I have used slr's for 35 years or more and have never had this trouble before. Don't be tempted by the huge zoom, that's another story !!!!
Lumix DMC-FZ2500
Hello! Please invest in a better quality microphone, preferably a clip on one which is cheap, also try to be more concise and get to the point quickly!
