Advantages: Price, durability, ergonomic design, ease of use, good instructions!
Disadvantages: No memory card included. Argh.

...ISO also applies, and the Nikon Processing engine is the same as the D80 or the D200, with 420 pixel sensor on the 3D Color Matrix Metering. If this all sounds a bit beyond you, the camera ALSO offers lots of helpful and accessible functions like "in-camera retouching". This is just to help you improve your photos BEFORE you take them - the LCD monitor will tell you if your scene is too dark and you need to use the flash (I am so guilty of this). ...
...used across a variety of Nikon models - probably your current Nikon uses the same). I've read some pretty positive comments about the battery life - I would say average. HOWEVER, there is NO MEMORY CARD INCLUDED. I cannot stress this enough - it's the one big irritation in the specification. The camera is still definitely worth getting, but you do need to budget for a card (and probably if you buy this card you'll need a reasonably big one). The ... Read review

Advantages: Nearly everything and more in compact
Disadvantages: No optical viewfinder and manual focussing

...cheek by jowell with the Panasonic Lumix DMC TZ2 for about eight months now. It lives in a pouch on my trouser belt and never leaves my side. As an ex-freelance photographer for the British press, I always carry a camera, and this little beauty has never let me down. In fact, I can take it out of its pouch, switch it on and be ready for action in less than ten seconds. In my press days, we used to carry three 35mm camera bodies with a wide-angle ...
...optics and build quality and Panasonic provide the electronics. A combination made in heaven? Try it and see. There are lots and lots of settings that are possible to make and other reviews go into great detail. I will stress one particular feature that never occurred in conventional cameras but is vital here....colour balance. You need to set this for the prevailing light conditions particular the type of light source. The daylight setting is easy ... Read review

Advantages: Super Macro function, price
Disadvantages: Battery life

...naturally - on my old Canon A40 there was no playback sound). "In Conclusion" The only real negative is the speed with which the two AA batteries are consumed, but that's my fault for not buying rechargables. This model is smaller & lighter than earlier versions, but functions are not sacrificed. Do buy an extra memory card, otherwise your enthusiasm for taking 5 megapixel photos will be swiftly thwarted by lack of space. The x4 optical zoom is ...
...you're contemplating a career as a paparazzo, probably unnecessary most of the time. There are a few other functions and changeable settings, but I can't find the manual to remind myself of what they are! So this review comes with a caveat: It concentrates on the elements I use on a regular basis and is not exhaustive. I've also undermined what was going to be my final point: Read the manual! As far as I can remember it is well written and informative, ... Read review

Advantages: Pro settings and great pictures
Disadvantages: not able to change lenses.

I purchased this camera with my limited budget expecting nothing more than compact digital camera but I was soon supprised at what this camera offers. It has a lot of settings and functions you would only find on more expensive DSLR cameras. Although this camera is not a DSLR when your using it you would not know this. I have produced some amazing shots which have scored well on professional web sites. You can see some examples on tj040.shutterpoint.com. ... Read review
