 Incredible Little Camera - Not So Incredible User Jan 06, 2009
Love the design of the camera - easy to figure out the power, review and action switches. The wheel at the top of the camera is in a good place so that it is not easily bumped to the wrong setting while in use.
Battery has a nice long life - which is a nice change from the Canon I just retired.
There are so many features, though, that I am still in the learning phase with what all can be done - and what setting should be used for various situations. Right now, it's a lot of trial and error. It would be nice if there was some sort of tutorial included with the software.
One feature of the camera I love is the facial recognition on the display. When taking pictures, it will recognize different faces in the shot and give extra focus on them. Not sure how many it will recognize at one time, but we've had up to 6 people in one pic and it put the focus box on each of them. (It pretty much has to see at least a nose and 2 eyes for the recognition to happen.)
Basically - after all of the research I did, I love my choice - and the price here on Amazon could not be beat. (At the time I purchased, it was a full $100 cheaper than I could find it anywhere else.) I just need to get out there and figure out what all I can do with it.

 Good, not great Jan 06, 2009
It seems like the reviews for this camera around the various sites on the internet were really good. I bought the camera largely based on those reviews. I'd say I'm not completely disappointed but I may have continued shopping if I were more familiar with some of the cons.
The pros:
Under most lighting conditions it takes beautiful pictures.
It is compact for a 10X optical zoom camera
The movie quality is fantastic. It prevents the need to have a separate camcorder (unless you are taking serious video)
It is pretty quick performance-wise
the cons:
there are some pics that look soft around the edges
there is a lot of noise in low light conditions. A LOT of noise. This is the big disappointment of the camera.
Over all, it's a decent camera, but I would have spent a little more money and given up the compact size for better low-light pics.

 Decent camera for the price Jan 04, 2009
We used to have an Olympus 10x zoom camera, it was bulky and it was only 4 MP, this camera is much more compact with a big LCD display, it looked great. We have used it for a month or so, it's been working flawlessly, my wife likes it, that's what really matters. We will be on a trip to China in a few weeks, the camera will get a lot of usage for sure.

Panasonis Lumix TZ5K is great Camera and HD vdeo camera! Jan 03, 2009
I bought this camera for my family as we needed a small digital slim camera to take with us on vacations that would fit in a pocket or purse. I did alot of research because I wanted a minimum 9MP camera with maximum zoom and HD Video capabilities. I chose the Panasonic TZ5K and I am happy I made the right decision! It takes wonderful pictures in Intelligent Auto mode and sharp HD videos that playback perfectly on my Pioneer Plasma 50" TV. Panasonic has hit a Home Run with the TZ5 camera and Amazon always has the best price with fastest delivery. I would recommend both to everyone!
Just what I expected Jan 03, 2009
I did a lot of research before deciding on this camera. There really aren't many options if you want a compact camera with a big zoom lens. I have had the camera for a couple of weeks and have really enjoyed using it. The overall performace is great, it looks good, and it has a nice size and feel. The video is quite good for digital still camera (this isn't a camcorder). The major weakness I have noticed so far is what I had read about before I purchased it: it doesn't take great pictures in poor lighting. While the pictures aren't terrible in such conditions, it is noticeably worse than other environments. This is THE camera for casual users or for someone like me who can't afford multiple cameras, wants good pictures with a lot of zoom, and needs a compact camera size.
