    Nice camera

    By Haji  Jul 12, 2007 | 10 out of 12 found this Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3-K review helpful

    Pros: Fantastic zoom and great lcd display

    Cons: bit bulkier due to larger optical lense

    This camera is one of the best cameras i have seen on the market. It has many features that a new user to digital cameras can grow into, it also has some nice features for the most seasoned of camera uses. The menus are a bit more complex than ...most of the kodak or cannon cameras, but if u read the manual they become fairly self explanatory. The battery life is bad on standard batteries, but really who uses anything but rechargable batteries in cameras any longer. Recharable batteries fix most of this issue. As a retailer of the item and as a user I would say this rate as a must look at camera for any buyer who is looking for nice zoom, great pictures, and and fairly easy to use functions.

    10X optical rocks

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 7, 2008 | 6 out of 6 found this Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3-K review helpful

    Pros: 28-280 35mm equivalent lens is amazing...

    Cons: proprietary battery

    I've been shooting digital for over 12 years (bought a Casio 640/480 VGA when they first came out) and this is my 7th digital camera (i've owned Casio, Nikon, Sony and Canon). I sold my 35mm digital because, although it took great pics, it wa...s just too big to carry everywhere, so I found that I seldom had a camera with me when I wanted one. This fits the bill perfectly. Although not as flexible as a full featured 35 nor as thin and light as the newest pocket cameras, it does all I need as an amateur photographer, and fits in your pocket or fanny pack. The lens is amazing; the 7 megapixel image size allows cropping or printing of larger sized photos with no loss of image quality. I wish this thing ran on AA batteries, as I can find those anywhere I travel. But then, perhaps they would have had to make the camera larger. As it is, I bought an extra battery and just carry it with me. Battery life is actually pretty good. A camera is only good if you have it with you to take pics -- this camera is the best overall digital I have owned. For the money, there's nothing else out there with the size and capabilites this one posesses. Read more Less

    Excellent super-zoom compact point & shoot

    By Steve  Jul 7, 2007 | 5 out of 6 found this Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3-K review helpful

    Pros: Excellent Leika lens, fantastic zoom, good sturdy feel, excellent videos

    Cons: Cannot zoom in video mode

    Excellent features in an affordable compact point and shoot. Love the 28mm wide angle and 10x zoom capability. Videos are excellent, with length of videos limited only by size of memory card (audio quality only fair). Unfortunately, you cannot zoom i...n video mode, unlike the earlier TZ1 model. Not the perfect camera for the perfectionist, but a great camera for the average photographer or as a second camera for the more advanced photographer! Read more Less

    Great Point and Shoot

    By Lowell P  Jul 4, 2007 | 4 out of 5 found this Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3-K review helpful

    Pros: So far, everything is great, love the 3" viewfinder

    Cons: None so far

    I've had this camera for about a month. I bought it and immediately took it on a trip. I didn't have any problems operating it at all without reading the instructions. The pictures are great quality and the 10X zoom is AWESOME for a sm...all camera. I bought an extra battery for my trip, but the first battery lasted 5 days of taking pictures on and off......a whole lot longer than my previous Kodak camera. This is a great small camera for the non-professional. Great Camera!!! Read more Less

    Can't Praise this Camera Enough

    By AFreeman  Jul 21, 2008 | 3 out of 3 found this Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3-K review helpful

    Pros: Easy to use. Can take it everywhere. Great images.

    Cons: Non

    I use this camera as a take-it-everywhere camera. I have a Digital SLR as well but this is the one to take when you are busy doing other things and see that shot that has to be taken. And you'll get it! At first I was concerned that shots up clos...e were blown out by the flash. But if you turn the exposure down, you can still do it! With just a little reading of the manual (I believe in doing that.)you'll master all situations in no time! With the 10X zoom and the 3" LCD...no other camera can come close for the price. The images look great for a 7MB point and shot camera. I highly recommend it. Read more Less

    good all around travel camera

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 8, 2008 | 3 out of 3 found this Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3-K review helpful

    Pros: macro, image quality

    Cons: indoor shots - weak flash

    This camera is a nice little travel camera and takes very good quality pictures. The macro mode is great. Videos have been good (no zoom). The lens starts wider than most at 28 mm and also extends longer than most at 280mm which works great for trave...l. The main complaint I have has been that inside it has not done well with flash photos at a distance (inside a classroom). Interestingly enough it has taken very nice indoor shots with flash forced off - there may sometimes be motion blur from people (kid) movement but the stabilizers did an amazing job of counteracting camera shake at low light levels. I also selected this camera as it has a really good "grip" on it and it is easier to take one handed shots than many small P&S cameras. I also always shoot in "vivid" mode - which seems fairly life like in color. Read more Less

    TZ3K

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 22, 2008 | 2 out of 5 found this Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3-K review helpful

    Pros: What Pros? Blurry photos are useless.

    Cons: AWFUL focusing

    How can you say anything good about a camera that refuses to focus properly? I have not taken an unblurry photo since the day I bought this camera. You press the shutter button. The lense starts moving. You watch on the screen as the picture moves PA...ST the point of focus and stops! It never stops at the point of focus! I would've sent it back to the distributor had I not been sick and missed the 15 day cutoff.Panasonic customer support never responded to any of my requests for help. Read more Less
