CNET Editors' review - Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 (Black)
Hide

Very good

7.4

out of 10
CNET Editor's rating: 7.4 out of 10
Reviewed by Lori Grunin
Review date: 6/23/08
Release date: 2/1/08

The good: Attractive, functional design; generally above-average photo quality for its class; nice, useful feature set; lens can zoom during movie capture.

The bad: Aggressive smoothing reduces detail in indoor shots, even at low ISO sensitivities; modest performance; poorly placed microphone.

The bottom line: Though it's not perfect, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5's compact midrange megazoom feature set puts it in a class with just its sibling, the TZ4, and should deliver a satisfying shooting experience.
