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.

Much better than TZ3 There is a very good improvement compare to the TZ3, with a new backlight tool, less possiblities on the rotating button (too much in the TZ3), more natural colors, and finally with the maximum digital zoom, we still have a good picture (3M).
Ok but not perfect The good: - 10X zoom - HD movies with zoom - 10MP - compact and light
The bad: - lens not as good as my previous 5MP Canon - photos blurrier than previous 5MP Canon - AI feature works only now and then - must use camera at 200 ISO to get quality pictures - autofocus feature in HD movies works badly
A fantastic buy for the money The quality of the camera makes this a purchase on which you can't go wrong.
Great camera! Great seller! Received camera on time, good seller to do business with.
Camera is just great so far. Some people complain about the audio sounding muffled but might not realize the microphone is on the top left where many people automatically place their finger. Just be careful for this spot. Great camera, in love with the video quality for the price!
Excellent Point & Shoot As a REALTOR, this camera allows me to take any shot of any room or house whether or not there is adequate lighting. The 28mm wide angle is certainly noticeable when standing at a doorway of a 10x10 room. The Zoom is wonderful when standing on a corner of a 5 acre lot.
