Ultra-Tough Exterior

The Panasonic FT7 is an evolutionary step in waterproof cameras. Its ultra-tough exterior is combined with cutting edge photo and 4K video quality to deliver confidence inspiring results no matter where you are or what you're doing.

31m Waterproof Camera

Featuring a 200+% improvement over the previous FT6, the waterproof design of the FT-7 enables you to safely dive to an astonishing depth of 31 metres. Its incredible versatility makes it a perfect underwater camera for virtually all water sports including snorkelling, SCUBA, fishing, surfing, sailing, jet-skiing, kayaking, white water rafting and virtually any other activity in or around the water.

Seamless Shooting Experience

Eliminating the need for an expensive, bulky underwater housing or case to reach such extreme depths makes the FT-7 a viable alternative for underwater capture. Full access to all the dials and buttons ensures a seamless shooting experience, not possible with many cameras that require additional housings. Tactile, well spaced buttons deliver confidence, even when shooting with gloves.

Go Anywhere, Shoot Everything

The rugged exterior is also dustproof, shockproof up to 2m, freezeproof down to -10°C and capable of withstanding up to 100kgf of pressure. Built to be used in the harshest conditions possible, the DC-FT 7 will leave you with no excuse to leave the camera at home.

20.4 Megapixel Image Sensor

The tough exterior of the FT7 is complemented by a cutting-edge interior. At it's heart lies a High Sensitivity 20.4 Megapixel MOS image sensor that delivers razor sharp images and lifelike colour reproduction.

4.6x Optical Zoom Lens

A 4.6x Optical zoom lens adds to the cameras versatility. Delivering an 35mm equivalent wide-angle 28mm - 128mm equips you with the ability to shoot a broad range of subjects. Ideal for the adventurous traveller, the focal range is designed for wide-sweeping landscapes, portraits, street photography and even up-close sports action.

Optical Image Stabilisation

The built-in Power O.I.S image stabilising system minimises blur from photos by reducing the effect of camera shake, giving you the confidence to shoot at the telephoto end of the zoom or in low-light conditions without resorting to the harsh flash.

4K Ultra-HD Video Resolution

4K Video functionality delivers 4 times the resolution of Full HD video equally allowing vloggers, adventurers, and parents to record tack-sharp, ultra-high resolution video directly to their memory card at the press of a button.

4K Photo Mode

The 4K capabilities also enable some cool photo features such as 4K photo, a mode that can shoot video at 30 frames per second and allow you to select an individual frame from the video to export into an 8-megapixel high-resolution image. Perfect for photos of candid moments of unpredictable subjects like kids or pets and ultra-fast motion or split-second events like lightning.

3-inch Tempered Glass LCD Screen

The rear of the camera features a bright 3-inch high-resolution LCD tempered glass screen. Built to withstand usage in everyday life, the screen also features seven screen brightness levels, ensuring image composition and menu navigation is easy in a range of lighting conditions.

1170k-dot Live View Finder

For precise framing and composition requirements, the FT7 also features a 0.2-inch 1170K-dot Live View Finder (LVF). Offering an approximate 100% field of view, the LVF is great for shooting in extremely sunny environments and for moments requiring critical focusing or framing.

Wi-Fi Connectivity

Wi-Fi connectivity can be combined with the Panasonic Image App to allow you to wirelessly control camera settings and trigger the shutter or video recording from your mobile device. You can even preview your framing straight on the screen of your smart device in real time, perfect for shooting from unconventional angles or when you can’t see the rear LCD screen.

Instant Photo Sharing

The wireless connection also enables you to immediately download high-quality photos for instant sharing with your friends, family and favourite social platforms.

Built-in Compass & Altimeter

A built-in compass and altimeter works with the GPS from your smartphone to deliver additional utility. Handy for explorers that like to take their adventures off the beaten path, connecting the FT7 to your phone's GPS also enables geolocation tagging, creating EXIF data to log exactly where each photo was taken.

Built-in USB Charging

Designed to be equally suitable for the nomadic adventure photographer or the busy mum with two kids, the Panasonic Lumix FT7 waterproof camera features a removable BCM13E battery which can be charged in-camera via USB. This convenient design is perfect for those travelling light or busy on-the go shooters with an active lifestyle.
