A review of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 digital camera has been posted at PhotographyBlog. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 is 6 megapixel camera equipped with an impressive 12 times optical zoom lens and image stabilization, which allows you to use the long zoom without using a tripod. Offering a range of exposure modes, raning from fully automatic or fully manual, and a selection of scene modes the Panasonic DMC-FZ7 should be of interest to both photography novices and ambitioned photographers.
The reviewer gave the DMC-FZ7 4 out of 5 points and writes:
“Overall, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 is a stylish, easy to use, advanced camera with that 12x zoom lens as its main attraction. The noise issue is by no means a show-stopper, particularly if you live in a sunny climate or tend to shoot mostly outdoors, but it does stop me from recommending this camera more strongly. If you’re really interested in the massive focal range on offer, then the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ7 should definitely be on your shopping list..”

The Panasonic DMC-TZ1 is a compact ultra zoom camera with 5 megapixels resolution, an amazing 10 times optical zoom and a 2.5 inch LCD display. The clever use of folding optics make the Panasonic DMC TZ1 the world’s smallest ultra zoom camera, a camera that can be easily carried around to go anywhere.
The risk of shaky and blurred images which is a common problem when making use of the long zoom range is minimized by Panasonic’s optical image stabilization that moves the lens to counteract camera movement. In addition, the DMC TZ1 also offers high ISO sensitivity (800), enabling the TZ1 to shoot in low light conditions and to further reduce motion blur.
