Great picture, great video, terrible sound!
2008-11-18Everything was great about this camera except the sound during videos. It was awful. I returned the camera.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5S
2008-11-17This was purchased as a gift for our oldest granddaughter who wants to produce better photography. It has enough menu items for her to increase her knowledge, without being to complicated. During a summer vacation this year she used her grandfathers nikon 4300, showing quick study skills as well as good composition. We liked this camera as a upgrade from the lesser point, without purchasing a more expensive SLR types.

Great camera
2008-11-17This was a birthday present for my girlfriend. She loves it. The 10x zoom and compact design are a great combination. This is a big upgrade from her 2mp camera.

I'm in love with this camera. It is small in size with a large LCD screen. It's nice to really see the picture you want to take. Menu screens are simple,straightforward and uncomplicated to access and use. Other controls are easily manipulated. It's very simple to delete a photo.
The photos that this camera takes are fabulous. Very sharp and clear...color is wonderful. The lense is extraordinary. My only very small regret is the zoom isn't as good as on my Canon. It's okay but not great.
I'd highly recommend this camera for the beginner or intermediate user. Also for those who are baffled by technology. This is camera is very user friendly.
5 stars for this Panasonic.
