Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4 Review

 

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4 , along with its more feature-rich sibling, the TZ5, is the latest incarnation of Panasonic's compact ultrazoom concept to begin making its way to store shelves. As with previous TZ models, the 8.1 megapixel TZ4 offers up a...

Great exposure, vibrant color, Easy to use, byt with enough flexibility for serious shooters, 10x zoom in a compact is still fantastic, Excellent movie mode with widescreen capture, HD output

Long-end AF issues, Still noisier than many competitors beyond ISO 400, Not small enough to fit in a pocket, May not be widely available in the U.S

Panasonic's ultimate travel camera just got even better

Having enjoyed well-deserved success with the TZ2 and TZ3, Panasonic has followed up with another excellent camera. The TZ4 has bullet-proof build quality, excellent ergonomics, is extremely easy to use and performs well. It doesn't have much in the...

MSI Wind U100 Review

 

So how does the MSI Wind stack up? As you can tell, I liked the machine a lot. As a portable computer it succeeds totally. Whilst the individual components differ little from much of the opposition, the end result is somehow “more” and incredibly...

Panasonic Lumix TZ4 & TZ5

 

The world's favourite superzoom series strikes again!

Good highlight detail, Price on the TZ4, Handling

Underexposure issues, Flat colours

It's a bit of a shame that even at this price, neither camera offers manual exposure or support for shooting Raw images. Nevertheless, both cameras are worthy upgrades with good images and an otherwise healthy dose of features. The better screen and...

Panasonic DMC TZ4

 

The Panasonic DMC TZ4 may not be small enough to slip into a pocket, but it is a very compact size for a digital camera with a 10x optical zoom. If you are looking for a camera for your summer holidays and a typical pocket sized cameras does not quite...

Ease of use - design and build quality - overall picture quality - wide screen movies - size and length of lens - wide angle lens

"This camera will do a good job for you. It manages to do more or less exactly what it sets out to do. So if you are after for a straightforward, compact camera, with a longer zoom that can take a good photo take a look at this one."
