panasonic lumix dmc tz1 reviewA review of the Panasonic Lumix TZ1 digital camera is available at camera labs. The Panasonic TZ1 is currently the world’s smallest ultra zoom camera, offering a 10 times optical zoom in a compact camera housing, thanks to some clever lens folding mechanisms. The Panasonic TZ1 also features 5 megapixels resolution and a 2.5 inch display, and utilizes Panasonic’s optical image stabilization to reduce image blur.

The review conclusion:
“During our time with the TZ1 we found ourselves grabbing opportunist shots which those with average cameras simply missed out on. While super-zooms could match its reach, none could be slipped into a relatively small pocket – and that’s the TZ1’s unique selling point. While a better sensor could have made the TZ1 truly remarkable, it still delivers a highly compelling proposition for those who want the flexibility and power of a long zoom with the carry-everywhere convenience of a compact.”
