Now you can fit sweeping landscapes into a single frame with the 28mm wide-angle setting. Pull in subjects from far away to capture even subtle facial expressions with the dynamic 280mm telephoto setting. Ideal for traveling, Panasonic's DMC-TZ4 Lumix(R) 8.1-megapixel digital camera combines a wide-ranging LEICA DC Vario-Elmar lens with a handy, compact body. The Extra Optical Zoom function also extends the zoom to as much as 15.9x, giving you even greater telephoto power.*
Intelligent Auto Mode Helps Get Great Shots in Any Situation
Set the TZ4 to iA mode and let the five Intelligent Auto functions team up to help prevent shooting errors. Intelligent Exposure corrects lighting differences, so images come out just the way you see them; Intelligent Scene Selector chooses the mode that best fits the situation; MEGA Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.) helps prevent blurring from hand-shake; Intelligent ISO Control helps prevent motion blur; and Face Detection helps produce clear portraits by optimizing the focus and exposure settings.
Big, Bright 2.5-inch LCD with Intelligent LCD Function
With a total of 230,000 dots, the big, bright 2.5 diagonal LCD makes viewing and shooting easier and more comfortable. The Intelligent LCD adjusts brightness automatically in 10 steps as the ambient light level changes, so images are clear, bright and easy to see day or night, indoors or outdoors.
Special Travel Functions for the Perfect Trip
The Clipboard allows you to take photos of maps, timetables and other travel info. They are saved in a separate folder of the built-in memory to distinguish them from normal photos. You can print titles and other characters on the photos you shoot with the Title Edit and Stamp. This is great for creating your own postcards from a vacation trip. Input your departure date and destination with the Travel Date Setting. Later, during photo viewing, the camera will indicate on which day of the trip each shot was taken and the location.

I have used other LUMIX cameras for several years and proved to be faithful to the user. My husband introduced it to me.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4K Black 8.1-megapixel Digital Camera:
I'm a Marine and it's great to have a camera that is really easy for either myself or my friends to use and has virtually no learning curve if you are familiar with digital cameras.
The images are great quality and settings are automatically chosen for you to best fit the situation you are in. If you want you can preset settings in 2 available slots, which eliminates having a ton of difficult to understand pictures all over the picture setting wheel.
All controls are obvious, and connecting to a computer (I have a Mac) is amazingly simple. I can't wait to take this camera everywhere I get to visit while I'm in the Corps.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4K Black 8.1-megapixel Digital Camera:
I bought this camera after two of my co-workers recommended it to me. I am as impressed as they are. It is not the smallest package but for 10x optical zoom it hard to beat at this price. I used it during an Alaska vacation and made great animal shots using full zoom.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4K Black 8.1-megapixel Digital Camera:
I bought this camera for the purpose of traveling and after researching literally dozens of cameras I chose this one. The Leica lens, 10x optical zoom (my friends were very jealous), and a very long list of other features is what attracted me. The battery life is outstanding. I do suggest purchasing at least 1 gb memory card. I traveled for three weeks through Europe and this camera held up splendidly. It's been dropped, banged, and tossed with very little damage-- a scratch on the lcd screen. The lcd screen is large so no squinting to view pics however it is very fragile. I suggest purchasing lcd screen protectors, they are cheap and will prolong the lifespan of your lcd screen. Even though it's only 8.0 megapixels, the pictures are as crisp as my friend's 10.0 mp camera. Its size is manageable, a little thick, but still fits nicely in a jacket pocket. It isn't the best camera for low lighting but it could be the operator. [...] Overall, I have enjoyed this camera immensely.

Comments about Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4K Black 8.1-megapixel Digital Camera:
I use the camera in a Home inspection business. At times I use the max optical + digital zoom. The camera handles metering and focusing well, or at least better than I am use to compared to other cameras. I had high hopes for the stabilizing feature at max zoom. It is an improvement over no stabilization but you certainly cannot walk around snapping pictures on max zoom and expect clear images
