In early 2025, we reviewed the LUMIX ZS99, otherwise known as the Panasonic ZS99. And back then, I didn’t think that it was all that bad of a camera. There’s a lot of zoom power, image stabilization, RAW, a small package overall, and good looks that can be rendered by the camera’s processor. It spent a lot of time in my closet tucked into a camera bag. But when I pulled it back out recently, I realized that this is exactly what so many people have been clamoring for.
