The Zoom, optical & digital enhancement.
The ability to automatically select the setting to suit the picture you want to take.
- The dial can get nudged onto the wrong setting easily unintentionally.
purchased 03 May 2009
+ Not only does the Panasonic look great but it really delivers in terms of picture quality and ease of use. The viewiing screen is really clear and the features are easy to find (without even reading the manual).
- Sometimes when I put my camera back into it's case the off switch turns to on, so it would be good to have a more positive off switch or way of locking the camera once it has been switched off.
purchased 14 Jun 2009
+ Easy to use for every day use.
- Slips of automatic very easily, however, camera lets you know
purchased 06 Jun 2009
+ Camera is exactly what I wanted, and the memory card is good
- The case, the camera is a tight squeeze into this case and it seems bulky. Keep undoing the Velcro to get at the camera, which is in the zip pocket, very annoying.

Light weight and ease of handling. Good size of display coupled with sharp images and information.
Wide angle lens coupled with zoom range is excellent for landscape photography.
The operating instructions are very explicit and comprehensive.
These comments are initial impressions due to lack of time for operational experience.
-
Digital display can be difficult to use in bright sunlight. Absence of optical viewfinder makes this critical under
certain conditions.
The Mode dial is too easily moved inadvertantly and would benefit from being slightly stiffer to operate.
purchased 27 Jun 2009
+ Very easy to get first class pictures even if. like me, you are not a camera buff.
- There are a lot of, opyions programmed into the camera, but it is not alweays obvious how to utilise them quickly and consulting ther handbook takes quite a long time because it dodges from one page to another to complete a process.
purchased 22 Jun 2009
+ Compact size, great zoom feature and standard wide angle gives nice panoramic outdoors shots. Video quality ok for playback on a PC monitor. Sound quality very good for a compact unit. Brought this for a holiday in Norway to capture the views and not dissapointed with the results. Still finding out how to use all the fancy modes but the intelligent auto does a good job if your in a hurry and just want to capture the moment.
- mode dial turns itself round as noted by most reviews
purchased 29 Jul 2009
+ The zoom is fantastic for a digital camers - the screen is a good size - all controls are easy to find and use
- Lacks a viewfinder for when usung in bright light
purchased 08 Jul 2009
+ wide angle lense, best make of lense you can get, settings for all sorts such as beaches, starry sky etc. amazing zoom n focus. etc etc etc
- like most compact cameras its hard to get a really good night time photos without using the flash but not a big problem, i still need to learn more about the camera
purchased 31 Jul 2009
+ simple to use controls , excellent picture quality, brilliant battery life.
- no bad points found so far
purchased 11 Jul 2009
+ easy to use, combines both camera and video. slow for quick shooting.

Digital Cameras Buyers' Guide25mm Ultra Wide-angle 12x Optical Zoom LEICA DC Lens and iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode with AF Tracking
The new TZ series packs a LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens with 12x optical zoom into a compact body. This versatile photographic tool lets you shoot everything from sweeping vistas at the 25mm wide-angle setting to dynamic 300mm telephoto shots. And the lens system’s exquisite rendering ability lets you capture even the subtle nuances of the sights and scenes in your travels.
iA mode activates six detection and correction functions – MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) to compensate hand-shake, Intelligent ISO Control to detect subject movement, Face Detection AF/AE to focus on faces in the frame and remove unwanted red-eye, Intelligent Scene Selector to select the optimal scene mode automatically, Intelligent Exposure to correct the brightness level, and AF Tracking to continually track a moving subject and keep it in focus.
The DMC-TZ6’s 2.7-inch LCD has a total of 230,000 dots for high resolution. It features the Intelligent LCD function. The Auto Power LCD function increases the backlight brightness in 11 steps according to the ambient light intensity. At the highest of these 11 steps, the LCD backlight becomes approx. 1.4 times brighter than normal. This makes both shooting and viewing photos easier and more convenient.
