ImagingResource has reviewed the 5 megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 and they write - “When Panasonic called the TZ1 a “The Panasonic Lumix TZ1 is a nice little camera at a great price, with a 10x, optically stabilized zoom lens, high ISO Scene mode, and large LCD. The large 2.5-inch LCD screen, while less accurate than most, is great for sharing your photos with friends, and makes the menus easier to see. From startup to cycle times, the Panasonic TZ1’s performance was above average. The Panasonic TZ1 did reasonably well overall in our testing, delivering good, bright color, and good resolution, but the significant lens flare from middle to long telephoto raised a red flag. We expect some flare in the corners on most lenses, but flare that insinuates itself across the frame is objectionable. Another failing is the weak flash, somewhat mitigated by the Panasonic TZ1’s ability to shoot in low light.”
