Product Description
Now you can fit sweeping landscapes into a single frame with the 28mm wide-angle setting. Pull in subjects from far away to capture even subtle facial expressions with the dynamic 280mm telephoto setting. Ideal for traveling, the DMC-TZ5 Lumix 9.1-megapixel digital camera combines a wide-ranging LEICA DC Vario-Elmar lens with a handy, compact body. The Extra Optical Zoom function also extends the zoom to as much as 16.9x, giving you even greater telephoto power. Set the TZ5 to iA mode and let the five Intelligent Auto functions team up to help prevent shooting errors. Intelligent Exposure corrects lighting differences, so images come out just the way you see them; Intelligent Scene Selector chooses the mode that best fits the situation; MEGA Optical Image Stabilization helps prevent blurring from hand-shake; Intelligent ISO Control helps prevent motion blur; and Face Detection helps produce clear portraits by optimizing the focus and exposure settings.

 Beauty in the eye of the Beholder October 12, 2008
I am very pleased with the quality of shots I have taken with my new Panasonic Lumix. The instruction book reads like stereo instructions but most of the features are intuitive. While it is not as lightweight as my Coolpix it still fits easily in my shirt pocket. It takes a much better shot with little effort. No problem with my aging shakes and good pictures. Highly to be recommended and greatly to be enjoyed.
Excellent pocket camera October 12, 2008
I have only started using this camera, but I really like it so far. It's small enough to fit in my pocket (or be carried around with one hand) and versatile enough to take pictures of anything within reason. The 10x zoom is quite powerful and the intelligent auto mode is usually sufficient (though not always -- it seems to have something against white and red flowers).
The battery is better than the impression you'd get from the manual, particularly since the camera manages to take good pictures without flash even when it's getting dark. Also, the interaction with the computer is completely painless: unlike my old camera which involved installing its own software, this one works like a USB disk.
I am not an expert on cameras so I won't even try to go into the details. However, the TZ5 has done almost everything I've tried to make it do so far and I'm very satisfied with it.
Perfect! October 12, 2008
This camera has so many options that I am still a little lost. :-) I bought it because I read on a camera reviews website that it is a highly recommended camera. And it really is a great camera!
 A complete package! October 12, 2008
I'm a DSLR user, but at times when u r at home or even going out for a picnic or a family gathering you feel you have an small pocket camera which could just slide in ur pocket or hang in on ur belt pouch and doesn't let you down to take most important moments in pictures and videos.
This camera not only takes brilliant indoor and outdoor pictures but also take amazing HD video with 30 FPS. It's an ultimate solution to all ur needs; 10x Optical Zoom, 9 MP, HD video and very easy to use and what else you expect from this size of camera.
I like it. But when its comes to seriuos photography I switch back to my DSLR :).
love my camera October 10, 2008
I am very pleased with this camera. Quick delivery. I learn a new option on the camera every time I use it. The pictures are very clear and it is small enough to put in my purse.
