Panasonic Releases Firmware Updates for G100D, G97, and TZ99/ZS99
Panasonic G97 vs G100D vs TZ99/ZS99 It is still a mystery for me why the G97 is sooo huge!
Panasonic has rolled out minor firmware updates for two of its Micro Four Thirds and one 30x superzoom compact cameras: the G100D G97, and the ZS99/TZ99. While the changes are not major, it's encouraging to see Panasonic continuing to support some of its older models, something we wish more manufacturers would commit to.
