[2] Regarding its lens, compared to that of the FZ1000 it has 9 blades instead of 7, as well as an additional element. [3] However, its first release was $400 more expensive than that of the FZ1000.

In their review of the FZ2500, DPReview wrote, "The Panasonic DMC-FZ2500/FZ2000 is a well-designed, full-featured enthusiast bridge camera that's hard to ignore. While it's clearly targeted toward video shooting, at which it's excellent, it is also a very good (but not best-in-class) stills camera.", and gave it its Silver Award. [4]
