perfect! [Posted on 2008-03-27]
I've had this camera for over a year now & I absolutely love it! It is very easy to use, the 12.5x zoom is unbelievable & the resolution is beautiful. This camera is a bit thicker than most on the market these days, but I believe it gives you more to hold on to so your pictures are taken with a more steady, stable hand.This camera never fails to take an amazing photo.
Wonderful camera, but... [Posted on 2008-04-02]
This is overall a wonderful camera, and I am glad that this was my first digital camera. It takes beautiful, detailed, sometimes breath-taking photos in good outdoor lighting (nature photos = wonderful). The 10x optical zoom packed into such a small package is outstanding. However, this camera is not the best at indoor/low-lighting photos. The photos are discernable, but there is a lot of noise in the photos. Recommended without hesitation for shooting photos on a vacation where the scenery and nature are the main draws, but recommended only with some trepidation where the goal is to capture people in nightclubs or hotel-room drinking binge.
Great simple camera [Posted on 2008-04-04]
Bought this camera a couple of years ago and it is still working well. Great picture quality and so very easy to use. Will have an occasional slightly blurry pic, but for a simple to use camera I would def recommend.
Sync problem between flash and shutter [Posted on 2008-04-12]
I own this camera since september2 2006, works just fine until less than a year after I got it starts to work all wrong when flash is used.
At outdoors is exceptional, great pictures when the light is good.
Bad really dark and black pictures at indoors when the place has low light. The flash forced on, and still the pictures came dark, because the flash shut way before the lens, a syncronization problem. And it's a pity because I was really pleased with it. But now I'm very dissapointed and I want to buy another camera because I can't trust the DMC-TZ1 anymore at nights or indoor situations, and I don't want to have a camera I can use just in some situations when daylight or good light is on.
I should have upgraded far sooner! [Posted on 2008-07-25]
I love this camera! I had an old Sony Cybershot before, and it can't even hold a candle to Lumix's image stability, clarity, LOVELY Leica lens, and well, just about EVERYTHING this camera has to offer. Incredibly quick picture response, variety of modes to choose from, and just amazing! Hah, even the USB cable from my old Sony fits into the same slot as my Lumix :) And, I don't have to buy some rip-off "special" memory card that only fits Panasonic (I spent 50 dollars on a 1GB card for my Sony... So convenient that the 'special' Sony memory card cost 3x as much as regular 1GB memory cards...) I LOVE this camera! :)
