Digital camera reviews of Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5S 9MP Digital Camera with 10x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Silver)
Digital camera Review: Awesome Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I now have had this camera long enough to write my opinion. I actually purchased several cameras and evaluated them using the most common features under the conditions that I usually take photos and videos. I also paid particular attention to the items other reviewers had criticized to ensure I had tested them fully. Because I'm not technically savvy, reviews written in detail never interested me. I think most people are like me...it works great or it doesn't. My overall opinion of the TZ5 is nothing short of awesome. I've taken pictures in no light, low light and outside. All came out quite clear. I did make one manual adjustment that made all the difference and that was changing the standard color mode to natural. The only complaint I have is that it is a bit more bulky than I'd like it to be but because it out performs any of the others under all conditions, I barely notice the weight. The mic is also in the wrong place but I noticed when I did shoot a video recently and forgot to move my finger from it's resting place that the sound quality was not hampered at all. The video was quite clear and the 10X wide angle zoom refocused with vivid clarity. The feature I love the most is the LCD display of dial features and quick on-screen menu for selected features.Digital camera Review: Awesome Camera for anyone!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this camera after 3 years of researching digital cameras. I know its a little excessive but I wanted to make sure I was getting the best for my money. A few things really caught my eye with this camera. The 10x zoom. The 460,000 pixel screen and the Intelligent Auto mode. There are so many features on the camera its hard to explain them all. It takes amazing pictures, especially for a point and shoot. There are lots of scene specific choices. It takes great night shots with the starry night mode and fantastic video in widescreen and highdef 720p. Which is amazing. I can't believe a camera this small can take this kind of video. I'm always trying to get pictures of my 8 month old nephew but he moves so fast I needed a very fast camera and this is it. I always get the shot I want. It has a rubberized grip and a spot for the thumb which helps alot because I just had wrist surgery and it helps me alot when holding the camera. Most point and shoots don't have this. It has convenient popup menu and camera or playmode switch which is really nice. I would highly recommend this camera any day to anybody. It beats out all the other point and shoots I've ever used by a long shot.Digital camera Review: Awesome Point & Shoot Camera !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I must say that I am very satisfied with my purchase of the TZ5. I looked at the new Casio Z200 as well as the Nikon D500/600. Went to B&H in New York City to see first hand. The Casio & Nikon left me unimpressed. Once I had the Panasonic in my hand, I instantly felt something different. Without experimenting with it, the outside & overall look of it had true sense of craftmanship. It really isn't that big for a Point & shoort & it has a nice, solid feel to it. The more I played with it, the more impressed I became. I absolutely love the fact that you can take multiple shots by simply holding down the shoot button. Great if you have a young baby or small children. It's not exactly an SLR but for a digital point & shoot, I think it works great. The pictures come out great & the 3inch screen is crystal clear. I'm not a professional photographer, & I'm sure some professionals may find some fault, but overall, I'm really impressed with this camera. Nice job Panasonic !!!Digital camera Review: Best Digital Camera I've Ever Had
Summary: 5 Stars
Granted I've only had one other camera, but I really enjoy the flexibility that the 10x zoom provides me. The macro is decent, and the camera seems to do pretty well in low light with no flash.Digital camera Review: Best Value Camera in the price range.
Summary: 5 Stars
After getting this camera last year, I've recommend 4 other people with this camera, and all of them Loved the camera just as much as I do(My grandma, my aunt x 2, my friend, my cousins all loved it absolutely!!). Why do I say it's the best value camera in the price range is because:
Pros:
1. Picture Quality: Picture quality are terrific for a camera at this price and this size!! Clear, sharp, really, no complaint at the price.
2. Wide Angle: Real wide angle picture
3. Stableness: It's Anti Shaking works very well, great for those hands that not stable
4. Size: with the image quality and stableness it gives you, it's really at a great size
5. Ease of Use: It's IA is by far the best i have use so far, it's easy to use, and really a no brainer. It's the best camera for your mom, grand parent, and those whose is not an electronic geek like me!
Cons:
1. Flash/night picture: The picture at low light and with flash is not the best, but acceptable.
2. Size: Wish is just a bit smaller, but acceptable
