Advantages: Picture Quality ,Ease of use Disadvantages: no
honest I am basically a panasonic sound system fanatic simply because I am a person to whom music means a lot, but it is also true I have an inherent weakness for the panasonic brand name itself. Although I am not a professional photographer but photography does interest me a lot and on top of that there are friends who are professionals in this field. I came across panasoniclumixdmc-tz7 through one of my friends, what attracted me was its silvery looks ..more...Image Stabilization which functions by raising the camera's sensitivity (and along with it, the noise levels) so as to achieve a higher shutter speed and reduce motion blurring. The panasoniclumixdmc-tz7 will also include face detection capable of identifying eight faces simultaneously, and will take into account the locations of detected faces when calculating autoexposure ...
I have just replaced my Fuji fine pix with another camera, and whilst buying my boyfriend bought himself a Lumix FS7 which I am now regretting not getting for myself. Always the way, but whenever I go shopping for something electrical, some guy in a suit always sways me towards something different. Which I should really learn from and just buy online, its usually cheaper anyway.
The PanasonicLumix FS7 Digital camera comes in a range of different colours; it cost £130 which for a 10.1 Megapixel camera was pretty good and the deal we got meant that a free case came with it as well as an additional memory card. So there were no qualms on the price.
10.1 Megapixels

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Panasonic Lumix FS7
Advantages: Fantastic little camera with 12 x zoom & 10.1MP (better than TZ5), but cheaper than TZ7 Disadvantages: No HD movie mode, not very cheap
There are very few other 12 x zoom compacts (I can only think of the Canon PowerShot SX200 IS), so the PanasonicLumix TZ range pretty much has the market to itself. The TZ6 has the advantage over the TZ5 with and extra 1 megapixel and 2 x zoom, as well as a slightly different styling. As far as I have seen the TZ6 is not thatmuch more expensive than the TZ5, so I found it worth getting the newer model. The TZ7 is the most recent release in the series and is almost exactly the same as the TZ6 both with 10.1 MP and 12x zoom - having seen them together in a shop, they look like carbon copies. The main difference on the TZ7 is the new HD movie mode, which is a feature I would like, but I can't justify spending a significant amount extra for this one feature, as still image quality is the most important aspect for me. The only other improvement ...

Manufacturer's product description
Panasonic, a leader in digital technology, set out to create a new breed of digital camera that would combine the ease and convenience of digital utility with the expressiveness of film photography. With the goal to develop a digital camera that could render images with more warmth, subtlety and richness than any other, Panasonic sought a relationship with the definitive photographic lens expert - Leica Camera AG, the world leader in camera and lens technology. It is through this relationship that Panasonic created the Lumix digital camera, the perfect blend of digital and optical technologies. Incorporating precision-crafted Leica lenses, the new Lumix digital cameras "see" beyond the surface, capturing the elusive nuances of shadows and light. Combining the latest advances in optical and digital technologies, the Lumix cameras open the door to a new level of creativity. Now, the collaboration of Panasonic and Leica has resulted in the new Lumix digital camera, a new milestone in digital imaging products and the symbol of the finest blend of craftsmanship in both optical and digital technologiesThe Lumix DMC-F7 model features the DC VARIO-ELMARIT lens. Combining a remarkably compact size with outstanding image-rendering abilities, this lens allows comfortable, rapid shooting. The specially developed DC VARIO-ELMARIT lens system, used in the Lumix DMC-F7, combines light weight and compact size, and delivers the high performance characterized by the Elmarit name. The DMC-F7 2X Zoom lens comprises seven elements in six groups. Including two aspherical lenses, this lens system offers F2.8-F4.0 brightness and a focal distance of 5.3 mm to 10.6 mm. The 2X zoom lens system is equivalent to a 35mm to 70mm lens on a 35mm camera. The lens also features the advanced multi-coating process. The perfect balance of Leica optics and Panasonic technology illuminates the world of digital photography!
