Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS1 review

 

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS1 may look identical to its linemate, the ZS3 , but give its specs more than a cursory glance and you'll find it's a different camera. The make-or-break difference, though, is the ZS1's lack of HD movie capture. So if you...

Compact wide-angle lens with 12x zoom; good build quality; uncomplicated operation.

Mixed performance; few manual features.

With a flexible lens in a pocketable package, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS1 is a pleasing point-and-shoot megazoom--both in design and photo quality.

Panasonic Lumix ZS1 Review

 

New for 2009 from Panasonic is the Lumix ZS1, a 10.1-Megapixel compact digicam with a very large optical zoom. One of the main features is the Leica DV Vario-Elmar 12x optical zoom lens with a 35mm equivalent of 25-300mm, which adds a great deal of...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 Review

 

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 (also known as the DMC-ZS1 in the USA) is a new ultra-compact super-zoom camera, offering a 10 megapixel sensor and 12x, 25-300mm optical zoom lens. The TZ6 is the cheaper brother of the TZ7 model, which additionally...

With its largely frill-free feature set – which Panasonic has bizarrely seen fit to overcomplicate (or perhaps more accurately 'pad out') with MyScene modes and Clipboard modes – the Lumix DMC-TZ6 is admittedly more a camera for the happy snapper than...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6

 

Lots of automation, a fair sprinkling of features and a good overall performance, but no HD movie recording.

The DMC-TZ6 offers a good mix of features, apart from its limited manual control. So, if you’re quite happy for your camera to make most of the shooting settings for you, then this model will deliver the goods under most shooting conditions. If you...

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 is the best option here for pure image quality and flexibility, if you can live with its size and quirks.

Panasonic Lumix TZ6 Review

 

The Panasonic Lumix TZ6 is a brilliant Zoom camera. The picture quality is brilliant and it takes pretty good video footage too. Being able to use the zoom when recording video is a definite plus.
