22 Sep 2008Very good camera.I have used this camera for two vacations and many back yard pictures and am quite impressed with it's capabilities! It was a little hard to get used to because it has more complicated settings than our previous Kodak digital camera, but I do love the 10-power zoom and high quality images! The 10-power zoom is especially helpful in capturing wildlife shots that will amaze your friends!...–Big Alfrom Amazon.com
06 Sep 2008Like it.This camera is a great point and shoot. It replaced a camera purchased from somewhere else and returned due to no battery life. This has great battery life and takes fantastic pictures. I'm a little challenged with all the settings... but.. that's my fault and the reason for the 4 star rating instead of 5.–Mary Annfrom Amazon.com
20 Aug 2008Perfect point and shoot...This camera is really fantastic. I have owned a Sony point and shoot and an Olympus. The Sony was horrible and after a year I decided to buy a new camera and found this one.
This camera is incredibly advanced for such a small package. You can use it without ever fiddling with a setting and get great results. It also has some great advanced features if you like to play around with things like exposure compensation or ISO there is that option as well. You can adjust the color (cool, ...–L.

"The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 ($350) is the follow-up to the popular TZ1, a camera that I enjoyed so much, that I bought one as a gift for my dad. That camera offered a big 10X zoom, optical image stabilization, super fast performance, and decent photo quality in a compact body. It wasn't perfect, but it was definitely the best compact ultra zoom on the market."
"The 10x optically stabilized optical zoom (28-280mm 35mm equivalent) Panasonic DMC-TZ3 (street: $299.00) is the upgrade to Panasonic's original 10x pocket rocket, the Lumix DMC-TZ1. Overall, we were very impressed with this first model, although there were a few areas of improvement: the five megapixel sensor was a bit small by modern standards, and noise was a concern at most ISOs. We also put a full manual mode on our wish list for the next generation in Panasonic's travel zoom line. You can't always get exactly what you want, but, in this case, two out of three isn't bad."
