Digital camera reviews of Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5K 9MP Digital Camera with 10x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)
Digital camera Review: LUMIX TZ5S
Summary: 4 Stars
I had previously owned a TZ3 , then I upgraded to TZ5 for the HD video recording capability with zoom. Overall the camera performs well. I like the new intelligent auto mode which is handy. The zoom is not fast enough like a camcorder also the focus is not fast enough but having said that I enjoy recording family videos. Overall good value for money. There is nothing to complain about the build quality. The on screen menu interface is pleasant to use.Digital camera Review: Amazing camera
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a camera that you can take a picture of anything under any conditions. I tried a completely dark room with no lights on and I could get a picture just as if its all light up. The pic quality is amazing.
I just wish it was a bit smaller.
Digital camera Review: Panasonic Lumix TZ5
Summary: 5 Stars
With 40 years of experience in photography,I know what I like in a camera.
I use a DSLR by choice, but I try to carry a camera on me all the time. I have done so since the 70's, digital, since 98. My new Lumix is wonderful!
Small enough to carry in a belt pouch without banging into everything, (less than an 1-1/2" wide) yet extending to 10x optical zoom when powered up. Carrying the camera everywhere allows me to document findings to share with my employer. The image quality is outstanding even at the smallest resolution. The .3mp 640x480 is particularly useful for getting pix emailed in hurry. The 9mp resolution allows for substantial cropping. Battery life is substantial and aftermarket batteries are available cheap!(2for $10) I have yet to explore the many of scene selections and shooting variations, yet in six weeks, have found no aspect of this camera I did not like.
Digital camera Review: Dark indoor images compare to other Wide-angle cameras
Summary: 4 Stars
I compared the Panasonic TZ5, Canon SD870is, Fujifilm f100fd. The TZ5 has the best features of all (nice screen, nice zoom, high-def video). But I ended up returning both the TZ5 & the SD870is. The f100fd has the brightest indoor images of all, and that's the most important feature I look for. The SD870is' indoor image is a little bit brighter than the TZ5, but still behind the Fuji. If you're really into higher-quality video & longer zoom, go for the TZ5.Digital camera Review: Panasonic Lumix TZ5K
Summary: 5 Stars
This camera is exactly fits my bill for size and perfomance. The optics are superb (though not up to my 1940 Leica :). The colors are very good and there are a remarkable number of settting to chose from (and learn.) I've used Nikon and Cannon equivalents the Panasonic more than holds its own by comparison. I've even been able to show my 88 yr. old mother how to operate it - the only problem being getting it back!
It's not a small, thin camera but, it is far more portable than an SLR and a bargin at the price.
