I can't really blame you for thinking that it looks suspicious. Of the last ten Panasonic digital cameras that I've reviewed only two have scored less than 9/10, and one has even scored the magic 10/10. It's not just digital cameras either; of the last 10 Panasonic camcorders we've reviewed only two have scored less than 8/10, and the same is true of Panasonic TVs as well.
It's got to the point where at least one reader has directly accused us of taking payments from Panasonic in exchange for high review scores, but the honest truth is that Panasonic keeps turning out high quality products, and our reviews (which are of course completely impartial) reflect this.
I can state with hand on heart that the most I've ever received from Panasonic is a couple of invitations to press launch events, along with hundreds of other journalists. I'm telling you all this because I'm about to add to the controversy with today's review; the new Lumix DMC-TZ7 is another seriously good camera from Panasonic, and so I'm afraid it's going to get another high score.
