the bottom 2 shots are not the FZ200 - they are the Lumix G5 DSLM.
Secondly i'm pretty suprised at the weighting given to the lenses in this review.
to score the FZ200 only at 25.9 vs the SX50 at 24.5 seems a bit unbalanced. the FZ200 maintains a constant aperture across the entire 600mm zoom ratio allowing you to use faster shutter speeds at tele zoom or in low light which is pretty important for shooting fast moving subjects or recording film...
also a good point to note for users wanting to base their analysis from this review - there is no weighting given to a fold out or tilt LCD and suprisingly "popularity" is measured in their points analysis which equates to 25% of the score outcome for the SX50. It contributed 60 points out of a total 241.1 which seems crazy given this compares spec for spec vs the competition.
if you are considering these 2 cameras as a purchase i would do some more reading than taking the face value of these scores as they are not accurate.
