#a point and shoot that will give an SLR a run for its money (2009-07-01) i have owned digital cameras for some years now, my other Panasonic models are the LX2 and the TZ3. I also own traditional film SLR but have not been swayed towards digital SLR yet, and this is a camera that is not going to change that decision!i have only 2 major criticisms of this camera. firstly there is no manual mode, for focus or aperture/shutter settings (but my lx2 gives me that) and secondly it has a dedicated (not AA/AAA etc. ) battery. That means you have to buy a couple of spares because if you are ...

#Super little compact (2009-06-30) My partner owns the TZ5, which is a great little camera and I would have purchased one for myself, except Panasonic decided to superseded it with the TZ6, which for some extraordinary reason, Panasonic saw fit to reduce the size of the LCD display. . . why! I would have bought the TZ6. It makes no sense, the cameras bodies are identical. I can t help thinking this oversight was cunning ploy to get us to fork out the extra dosh for the TZ7, if so, it worked on me, because I bought one and have not looked back. Apart from the stunning AVCHD video mode...

#Not quite there (2009-06-28) Overall this camera is excellent as a point a shoot camera especially if you use some of the manual or scene setting features. Slightly disappointing battery life as many reviews gave this excellent lifetime but you will typically need to charge the battery after a day of use (50-100 pictures). The other recommendation is not to use the Intelligent Auto for indoor shots - switch to manual and set white balance. But other than that the camera has produced some excellent photos. One other comment - for the HD video, you will need a computer capable of ru...

#Nearly perfect! (2009-06-24) Panasonic Lumix TZ7 Digital Camera - Black (10. 1MP, 12x Optical Zoom) 3. 0 LCDI ve recently bought this camera, an upgrade from the FX33. I am so far very impressed with it. The monitor is nice and big and the picture is very clear. The functions seem good so far. The zoom is smooth and the choices of different quality video (from Jpeg to 720p HD) is an excellent improvement. It also records sound in Dolby Stereo 2. 0, which is not mentioned on the product description. Also, excellent is wide angle and being able to zoom whilst recording footag...

#An excellent piece of kit (2009-06-23) Having a good deal of top rate Canon DSLRs and the Canon G9,I was a bit wary of buying the Panasonic TZ7, but after reading all the reviews I could about this camera I decided to buy it as a pocket sized compact. I have not been disappointed. This is an excellent camera which will not let you down. It produces really good images especially when using the Panasonic Ai system. The 12x optical zoom lets you get really close to your subject and the built in stabilisation helps to keep your pictures pin sharp. I have no hesitation in recommending t...

#sony so easy (2009-07-01) great little camera charged in no time so easy to use not too fiddly. a great starter camera for anyone,easy to read screen instructions i cant fault it fantastic for the price.

#Nice compact model (2009-06-26) It is easy,compact,cute and a good model to go who are looking for a compact model in sony.

#User friendly and serves common purpose (2009-05-08) I am using this camera over one month, its very good to use for normal picture with friends and family. Bettery life should be the concern as it only lasts for 3 hours. In that case u need at one extra bettery. Otherwise its ok with its configuration.

#Good (2009-04-04) Good price and a good product, but I had to wait for a long time to get it.

#sony cyber shot 10.1mp (2009-03-25) a great camera for every day use not too technical and easy to use from the moment it was charged up

#bargin at the price (2009-05-27) having had a sony camera for years and now having a more expensive main camera we found we needed a cheaper camera for those day to day events. having got it going which took minutes this camera as all sony cameras delivers some exceptional photos and video for a bargin price. a super buy and worth every penny and taking less than 60 seconds to get it working just what is needed.

#Lumix TZ6 (2009-06-29) This classy,light camera was recommended by a friend to replace my ageing Nikon Coolpix which was slow to reload and difficult to focus. The Lumix is excellent - quick to reload,easy to use and ,with a 2GB SD card, has loads of memory for both stills and videos. The zoom/wide-angle lens gives plenty of scope to compose shots. As with most compact digital cameras, there s no viewfinder but, away from direct sun, the LCD monitor screen is perfectly clear. The pictures are amazingly shake-free , even in poor light, but a tweaking on Picasa 3 remedies any under-...

#Great little camera (2009-06-26) This camera is the bees knees. For a pocket size camera it does everything I wanted it to do plus more. I ve only had it a month, so haven t explored all the settings yet, but the results so far are great. The optical 12xzoom is brilliant, as good as a larger, more expensive camera. The trimming facility works really well, though the pictures can become a bit grainy if they are enlarged too much. So far so good - I love it. Fiona, Isles of Scilly

#Absolutely Superb! A little beauty (2009-06-22) I have used a number of digital cameras in the past but have been disappointed with either the low power of the zoom or the quality of the resulting image. I read reviews of the Panasonic DMC-TZ6 and when I bought one I am extremely pleased with the results, The overall quality and particularly shots at extreme zoom. My particular interest is wildlife photography(amateur) and to be able to carry the camera in my pocket means it is readily available for unexpected shots. Have just got a superb views of a yellowhammer and whitethoat.

#Fantastic camera (2009-06-20) My boyfriend recommended this camera to me as one which would be more functional than aesthetic. I previously owned a Olympus 5 mpx camera which took a long time to start up, was bulky to carry around and had a low battery life. The Lumix is far better - it starts up quickly and has excellent battery life. It may be a bit heavy and bulky, but the photo quality is excellent and more than makes up for it. There are many functions and settings, like the particularly helpful Beach function which means I no longer have the sun getting in the way of beautifu...

#A Great Little Camera (2009-06-20) I bought this to replace my Olympus C-765 Ultra Zoom, which had finally given up after nearly five years. At the time it had the longest fixed lens zoom available at 10x optical, and had a well built,traditional camera shape. When I first received the Lumix I couldn t beleive how small and light it was in comparison, and with a 12x optical zoom too. (This will increase if you select a lower MP and there is also digital zoom). At first I struggled getting decent pictures with it, due to shake and slow autofocus I d always used the Olympus on a trip...

#Great camera (2009-06-23) I received in 3 working days, and started using it straight away, the quality of the pictures are far better than other digi cameras i have used, maybe because it is hd. I recomend this camera to evryone

#Perfect Shot (2009-06-12) Very user friendly good auto shoot and great features for editing. Only drawback is you have to purchase a Memory Stick before you can get any real use from it but otherwise a great point and shoot camera.

#Sony Cybershot Camera (2009-05-13) This is a fabulous little camera and well worth the money,its really easy to use,nice and compact and we have had some beautiful shots with it-highly recommend.

#Another Top Point&Shoot from Sony (2009-03-01) I bought the Sony W220B as a smaller alternative to my Canon SLR and as a replacement for my Sony P10 5. 2MP which I bought some five years ago (excellent camera, but rather small screen). The W220B is 12. 1MP. Personally, I think 12. 1MP is too much and the difference in image quality compared to the P10 (which has less than half the amount of pixels) is negligible. But the price of memory has plummeted and a 4GB memory card (good for 800 pictures at 12. 1MP) can now be had for around £15. Photos can also be easily converted to VGA fo...
