#A Good All-Rounder (2009-05-03) I really like this camera! It is reasonably small and light and takes good pictures. I have put some images taken with my TZ6 at Hornsea on Share your own customer images. The main selling point of this camera is the 12x optical zoom lens. I was a bit wary at first that, at maximum zoom, camera shake could be an issue. But I find that it shouldn t be a problem so long as you turn the stabilizer on (mode 2 is most effective) force a reasonably fast shutter speed, get a good hold on the camera, and squeeze the shutter button gradually. The Intellig...

#Super smart camera (2009-04-23) This little camera size belies the many features it possesses. Take time to read the manual a few times to find out all it can do - it s worth it. The picture quality in the Intelligent Auto mode is fabulous and simple to use. The more enthusiastic photographers will appreciate the custom features. Normally I steer clear of anything other than Auto, but this camera makes it so easy to use more sophisticated features that I had a go and enjoyed playing about with my photos. The battery is light and long lasting. The optical zoom is better than tha...

#lives up to its reputation (2009-06-12) I bought this camera mainly for its incredible zoom facility. My standard, basic digital camera proved to be totally inadequate at a recent tennis event and therefore my photos were a big disappointment. But whilst choosing the Olympus SP-590UZ to overcome similar problems in the future, I am thoroughly satisfied with the camera s overall performance and ease of use. The various professional reviews placing this camera at the top of their list are therefore justified in my estimation. The accompanying user disks leave no problems unanswer...

#Olympus SP-590UZ Compact Digital Camera (12MP, 26x Wide Optical Zoom) (2009-05-20) I have had this camera for over a month now, it is really an upgrade from a compact which I wanted, I have a SLR camera but you have to cart around a few lens, this camera has all I want and you are not wasting film and can see the pictures instantly. The zoom is ok but like all cameras with a zoom lens you need a tripod to steady the camera. I like the macro setting, you can get in very close, there are plenty of other settings but like my other compact digital camera I have tried them out but might n...

#SP590UZ, a camera with zoom zoom! (2009-04-16) A rundown of the more significant items:Zoom range:So much zooooom you won t know what to do with it, it gives optical detail on par with some bird spotting scopes. Full zoom gives pleasantly good quality images. Colour fringing is apparent at extremes of the zoom range, but it is still good considering the sheer amount of optical zoom range the camera has to cater for. The full zoom photo quality from the SP590 easily beats my SP550 with Tcon17 teleconverter. Wide angle suffers from significant barrelling, this disappears when a bit of ...

#Also packed up after 6 months - but don t buy from SwAk ! (2009-03-16) Nice flash, bought it from market seller SwAk and this also packed up after 6 months. Beware of SwAk - after directing me to the Nikon website, they simply ignored all my subsequent emails. And Amazon can t help, in fact they keep taking my warnings off the reviews ! So watch out !

#don t buy it (2008-12-13) after six months it packed up. it tries to do more than it is able to.

#In case you were in doubt - buy the Nikon Sb-600 (2008-09-29) In case you were in any doubt, the Nikon SB-600 is the flash to buy for your Nikon D-SLR! The highlights:- Well made, quality feel. Nicely balanced on my Nikon D40- Enough power to light every subject I have thrown at it- Auto I-TTL setting makes fill-in flash easy - Managed over 250 shots on one set of rechargeable batteries - Team it with a Sto-fen omnibounce for soft shadows - The light it produces seem quite warm for a flash

#Still great after all these years (2008-08-15) I ve had this flash unit well over a year and it is only recently that I ve learnt to understand its true potential and how to get it, which are bounced flash and off-camera wireless remote flash. Firstly, the flash head can tip up 90 degrees as well as swivel up to 180 degrees anti-clockwise, i. e. the flash head facing backwards and 90 degrees clockwise. These two movements allows me to shoot bounced flash with the flash unit attached to the camera, in both landscape and portrait position, and it produces perfect exposure every time....

#Excellent (2008-08-08) Bought this to use on my D300 and even though like the last reviewer I am relatively new to photography (and even newer to flash photography) I find this item easy to use straight from the box. It comes with a nice Nikon branded case and a stand for use off camera The inbuilt flash can be used to fire this Speedlight remotely, very clever. It is infinitely better than the inbuilt flash and gives stunning flash lit photography. There is so much you can do with this unit that it can be quite a steep learning curve to get the best from it, but the manual (strangel...
