Prosi love this camera, it is very easy to use and it has a good battery life Consnone so far Share this Review: Review?3?for?Lumix DMC-TZ1S Silver 5.0 MP, 10X Zoom Digital Camera Overall: 5 [RATINGOF] 5 Picture Quality: 4 [RATINGOF] 5 Features: 5 [RATINGOF] 5 Battery Life: 5 [RATINGOF] 5 Reviewed by: soldat Location: Arkansas Duration of product use: Less than a month Level of expertise: Good Title: A Best Value Digital P&S -- With A Metal Body! Date:?April 6, 2007 Pros1) Broad appeal to beginners and advanced amateurs alike. from Dell.com I take many pictures in all kinds of situations. I currently own a Canon G1 & G3. Had a Fuji 210, a Nikon 5200, a Vizio 630 and a Panasonic I-Palm. I was in search of a smaller sized camera to the G3 that would be video worthy with stabilization, which could be my "grab it and stuff it in my pocket and go camera" and found it in the TZ1. from Digitaltrends.com Had the camera about 6 months, and still waiting for my 1st disappointment. Having had a Panasonic camera before, I doubt the disappointment will every happen. This is my work camera, and it is better than my "nice" camera that cost 3x more. from Digitaltrends.com This camera could have better audio but having mono tone audio is better then no audio at all on a Camera. Digital Cameras have come a Long way since thier First release on the market. This Panasonic Camera definatly proves that. from Amazon.com I love this camera! I had an old Sony Cybershot before, and it can't even hold a candle to Lumix's image stability, clarity, LOVELY Leica lens, and well, just about EVERYTHING this camera has to offer. Incredibly quick picture response, variety of modes to choose from, and just amazing! from Amazon.com I figured you have to give up something when you make a more compact camera. Things really went down hill when my charger stopped working 6 months after purchase. I finally called Panasonic support. I was floored when they told me that the charger is not covered under warranty. from Amazon.com My wife and I did a lot of research before deciding on this particular camera. Panasonic makes some very high quality devices, and we really liked the various modes available on this camera. From the simple point and shoot mode, to the more involved modes that let you shoot close up or at a distance. from Amazon.com Overall, this is a fantastic camera that I'm extremely pleased with. However, I bought it to take pictures indoors without flash. I was prepared for lower quality images indoors without a flash, but the Lumix does not do nearly as well as my Canon Elph in identical lighting situations. The flash is good, but if you want a camera to shoot indoors without flash, be prepared for fairly noisy images with a lot of artifacts. from Amazon.com even cloudy days make for terrible pictures. they were so bad i thought surely the camera was broken, so i sent it in for repairs. panasonic was good about a timely response, but nothing had changed when it was supposedly "fixed." from Amazon.com I did a search online and found out it is a common problem that usually occurs after several months of use. The flash and the shutter get out of sync. I called Panasonic and they said they knew about the problem, but it was not covered by warranty. They want $180+ for the repair. from Amazon.com
