Best for
A compact entry-level MFT body with a retractable power-zoom kit lens - very pocketable combination. The X Vario 14-42 PZ power-zoom is notable for being one of the smallest MFT standard zooms made - retracts to pancake-thin when powered off. An affordable first mirrorless body.
Frequently asked questions
What's special about the power-zoom kit lens?
The X Vario PZ 14-42 is a retractable power-zoom - an electric motor drives the zoom rather than a mechanical ring. Useful for smooth video zooms, and the retracting design keeps the camera pocketable when off.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
