| Review (Summary): "... In the introduction to this review, I remarked that the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 was one of my favorite cameras of 2007. I'm pleased to report that this years model, the DMC-TZ5, is even better. It offers a big zoom lens, good photo quality, a stunning 3-inch LCD display, a 720p movie mode, and generally snappy performance, all in a relatively compact body. ...
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 is quite an impressive package. It's not perfect, but it's arguably the best camera in the "compact" ultra zoom class. From its 28 - 280 mm lens to its 720p movie mode, the TZ5 can do just about everything. If you're after a point-and-shoot camera with some serious zoom power, then the TZ5 should be high on your list. ..." |

| Review (Summary): "
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 is a new version of Panasonic's best-selling camera of 2007, the DMC-TZ3, an ultra-compact superzoom with a 10x, 28-200mm lens. Just one year later, the new DMC-TZ5 retains the same Leica-branded lens and optical image stabilization system, but offers a small number of significant improvements. ...
... In summary the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 is a marginally better camera than the TZ3, with improved image quality, an excellent LCD screen, useful Intelligent Auto mode for beginners, and the attraction of HD video. ..." |

| Review (Summary): "The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 is an ultra zoom digital camera housed in a well-designed body and is compact enough to carry in a trousers or coat pocket. It is equipped with a very versatile 10x 28-280mm wide-angle optical zoom that allows you to take wide landscapes and large group shots, portraits, macro as well as bring far away action close. ...
... If you are looking for one digital camera that has pretty much everything you need for snapshooting, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 is a well-designed ultra zoom digital camera that will make many point-and-shoot photographers happy. ..." |

| Review (Summary): "The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 ($350) is the follow-up to the highly popular DMC-TZ3 compact ultra zoom, which was introduced to much praise last year. That camera offered a 10X, 28 - 280 mm lens with image stabilization in a midsize body, along with a host of point-and-shoot features. ...
... Photo quality was very good. In most cases, the TZ5 took well-exposed photos with pleasing, saturated color. Photos are slightly soft, though not enough to cause concern for this reviewer. On previous TZ-series models, noise reduction was a big problem. Panasonic has addressed that here, though your photos have noise in them instead, especially in shadow details. ..." |

| Review (Summary): "Panasonic's new 9.1-megapixel DMC-TZ15 (DMC-TZ5 in U.S.) digicam is the latest in its 'Travelers' Zoom' series of cameras. Replacing the 7.2-megapixel TZ3, it introduces a swag of new features that will appeal to point-and-shoot photographers who want a slim camera with a long zoom lens. The TZ15's body is marginally smaller and lighter than its predecessor but just as pocketable and equally well-built. ...
... Imatest showed overall resolution to be very slightly below expectations for a 9-megapixel camera, but relatively good for the size of the camera's sensor. We obtained the best Imatest figures at shorter focal length settings, as shown in the graph below (See website and there was only a small difference between center and edge resolution. ..." |

| Review (Summary): "Ever since we got our first glimpses and sneak preview of Panasonic's newest Travel Zoom pocket camera, the 9.1 megapixel, Lumix DMC-TZ5 (street: $349) with the 10x optically stabilized 28-280mm f/3.3-4.9 DC Leica Vario-Elmarit retracting zoom, we've been waiting impatiently for a testable unit to arrive in the Pop Photo lab. Well, that day has finally arrived. ...
... It is a point and shoot in the truest sense of the word - but a point and shoot that usually delivers images that will satisfy even discerning photographers who want to travel light. Throw in 720p HD video capture with full optical zoom during capture, one of the highest resolution LCDs in a pocketable camera and it gets even better."
