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. The TZ5 can record motion images with sensational 1280 x 720 HD resolution at 30 frames per second (fps). f=4.6-46mm (35mm equiv - 28-280mm) Focal Length 3.0 Diagonal Polycrystalline TFT LCD Display (460K dots) Focusing Area Normal - Wide 50cm/Tele 200cm - infinity, Macro/Intelligent AUTO / Clipboard - Wide 5cm / Max 200cm / Tele 100cm - infinity 8 - 1/2,000 sec.

Summary: love my camera
Comment: 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.

Summary: An amazing compact camera
Comment: I bought this camera for my wife after being unhappy with her Canon 1100. I use an DSLR, and found the Canon's pictures were full of noise and the flash was completely a waste. This Panasonic, beyond having an amazing zoom lens, takes much less noisy pictures, and the flash is exceptional for a compact camera.

Summary: Mediocre, not up to the hype.
Comment: I have been looking for a point and shoot camera that would take decent pictures of my daughter's volleyball games inside a fairly well lit high school gym. My Canon SD750 failed miserably. Before purchasing my TZ5, I read up all the stuff about sensors and ISO settings and it seemed Sony had the best technology. Nope. It went back the same day. Tried a Kodak, it lasted fifteen minutes! The Olympus Stylus 1010 was useless in both the gym and a restaurant.
Finally I ponied up $300 and bought the TZ5. It can't take a decent shot in the gym of anything over eight feet away! Every picture is either filled with noise or blurry. Trying to use the zoom, anyone across the gym is unrecognizable.
I am beginning to wonder if I need to buy a D-SLR with an external flash.
Pretty sad.
The Panasonic Lumix TZ5 does not deliver. My wife's Canon SD400 takes as good of a picture if not better in most lighting situations. Great features, poor pictures.
I have had digital cameras for about ten years now and never saw such poor quality as the recent ones.

Summary: Meet ALL of My Needs ...
Comment: I am not a professional photographer by any stretch of the imagination, but I take a lot of photos, some of which I am paid for. I have had a point and shoot digital camera for years, and the Panasonic DMC-TX5 is the best I have ever used. It is my "always with me" camera. I also have an Olympus E500 DSLR that I use for special occasions. I was attracted to the TX5 because of the zoom capabilities, and I have not been disappointed. I would say the Olympus takes "better" pictures, but it is bigger, heavier, and definitely not a camera I want to lug with me everywhere. The high resolution and zoom capabilities, coupled with the price, make the TX5 a great value.

Summary: Panasonic TZ5
Comment: I've had this camera a month now. Have had only one other digital camera before, and it was/is a Panasonic DMC LZ2. Both purchases were because I rated Zoom ability most important. I loved the old camera, and I love this camera even more. The TZ5 focus's faster, has a WONDERFUL 3" monitor, is a bit smaller and seems to do everything better. It's a lot of camera for the money.
