    The Panasonic Lumix is a very versatile camera. Auto mode seems to cope well with nearly all conditions. Easy to carry in hand. Auto focus and stabilization work well. Very good zoom. Very poor sound in video mode though.

    I can honestly say that for the situations I want to use it in, this camera is perfect: Huge zoom, Wide angle lens, HD video, compact form. This camera takes great pictures, great wide angle pictures, easy to use and the perfect travel camera.

    I have always been an SLR man and when my last one broke I could not afford to buy a new one. A friend came over to stay from Canada and had a realy good compact. After searching the net and reading reviews I decided on the TZ5. I havent looked back it goes everywhere with me now and I love it. I have had mine for about two months now..

    It's not the smallest compact but then the 10x zoom needs space. It's not too big though, it's small enough to live in my jacket pocket (with small case for addition safety).

    The results so far make me feel that my pre-purchase research paid off and it's producing the good for me. The pictures are very good (when I do my bit, image stabilization can only do so much).

    The iAuto mode works very well, the Auto mode adds a little flexibility and the scene modes (that I've tried) have worked to m ...

    I've had this camera for 1 month now and don't regret buying it.
    The 10x zoom and quality of pictures is great. All this in a small package that goes in your pocket. I highly recommend this camera to everyone that needs a compact camera
