Do you have a question about the Lumix DC-ZS200 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
a take a photo with the dial set at P, push shutter and screen says "recording in Post focus" what does that mean? All I want is a single frame, not a movie.
On the Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS200, "recording in Post Focus" means the camera captures multiple images at different focus points when the shutter is pressed. You can then select and save the desired focus point later during playback. This feature is available when the mode dial is set to P (Program) and [Post Focus] is selected in the drive mode.
