In a press release, Panasonic said that the FZ25000 is capable of recording 4K video at 30 frames per second, as well as Full-HD video at a high rate of 200 or 100 Mbps. It can also take still shots at up to 12 fps.

The new FZ2500 is basically the new, fixed-lens version of the famous G4. It will be sold for $1,199 starting December.

Panasonic also introduced the new Lumix G85, which has many of the features of the earlier-released GX85, albeit with a bigger, dust- and splash-resistant body.

The G85 features a new 2.36-million dot OLED viewfinder and a 3-inch touchscreen. It retains the GX85's 16-megapixel sensor, 5-axis image stabilizer, and 4K video recording capabilities. Panasonic will sell the G85 body for $899, and with a 12-60mm lens kit for $999 starting this October.

Panasonic also unveiled the new Lumix LX10, which is basically a new version of the LX7. It uses a 20-megapixel 1-inch sensor similar to the one used by the ZS100. It boasts of an all-metal body, 5-axis image stabilization, and a 24-72mm lens. The camera can capture 4K video at 30 fps, and 1080 video shots at 120 fps.

Panasonic will make the LX10 available for $699 starting November.
