Excellent build and photo quality

By Fastrack

Made in Japan! This camera feels solid and has the type of quality only found on products made in Japan. I knew something was different about it when I first picked it up. It's solid feeling and the picture quality is better than any other camera I have h...

Great camera

By buder

A very sturdy camera, and the 10x optical is extremely nice for this size of a camera.

Stunning Photos for a P&S

By EchoTony

Bought this camera to have quality video inside my point and shoot camera. Video quality is good. It isn't a video camera, so it's not perfect, but better than lugging an extra video camera on vacation.

Wonderful images. Huge zoom lens for a point and shoot camera. Very little distortion throughout the zoom range. Clear, sharp photos. Good face detection. 16:9 HD video. Metal body. Large, bright LCD.

Auto focus is a bit slow in low light situations. Must have a 10mb/s SD card to record 720/30 fps. Flash is close to hand grip so you could cover the flash easily. Microphone is easily covered if not paying attention. No viewfinder.

Avoid

By KeithL

Camera was returned. Purchased an Olympus Stylus 1010 to replace it. So far everything is great with the Olympus.

Good price. List of feature sounds good. Capable of recording HD movies, though I never tested it

Pictures are terrible, even worse when zoom is used. Out of about 150 pictures taken, 2 were clear enough to keep. Flash takes 5-6 seconds to recharge, too long when you're chasing around a 5 yr old

Great camera...

By zoooom

This is an awesome camera, nice compact body. I wanted to buy sony DSC h50 but ended up buying this after reading all the reviews and am glad I bought this little beauty...

I bought this camera for 3 reasons

Some fringes in night shots but I guess thats more because I have been shooting with the default mode...I need to read the manual

Pocket size camera with big camera functions

By Johnny33

Be sure to buy a fast speed sd card as a standard cheap card will slow down features.

I like everything about it. upgraded from original tz1. LCD screen is larger and brighter so is easier to see outside. Video is clear and also the sound is recorded like a dynamic sound, recorded live music with no distorsion. Zoom amazes me

Camera should be sold with a case to protect LCD. Will scratch easily
