Nice 28mm wide-angle lens. Very compact. Big 3-inch LCD. Unique modes, like Intelligent ISO mode.
No true manual features. No RAW options. Cant change amount of flash.
When looking for a superzoom, dont settle for less. Panasonics Lumix DMC-TZ3 has a powerful zoom lens with a nice wide viewing angle, too. If youre still not convinced, the Lumix is stylishly compact, takes awesome pictures, and is affordable to boo...
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 is a welcome improvement from its predecessor, the TZ1. The 10x optical zoom lens provides excellent performance in a compact 7.2 megapixel digital camera. The 3 inch LCD provides a nice big screen for previewing and revie...
Abstract: This compact digital camera has no direct competitors thanks to its unique wide-angle 10X optical zoom in a compact 1.5" thick body. Although it only operates in point-and-shoot mode, its unique lens makes it one of the most versatile compact cameras ...
Abstract: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 ($350) is the follow-up to the popular TZ1, a camera that I enjoyed so much, that I bought one as a gift for my dad. That camera offered a big 10X zoom, optical image stabilization, super fast performance, and decent photo...

Wide, powerful lens with little distortion; quick performance.
No manual exposure controls; tiny buttons; no stop-motion movie mode.
Though it leaves out one fun, little shooting mode, the Panasonic DMC-TZ3 improves upon its predecessor in nearly every way.
Uniquely versatile compact with 28-280mm equiv. lens, Excellent resolution, surprisingly sharp lens, Unusually versatile aspect ratio options, High quality construction for the price, Little (if any) color fringing, Very low distortion, Good shot-to-shot...
Heavy noise reduction - make ISO 400+ usable only for small prints, NR smoothing/smearing of fine detail and texture even at ISO 100 (and fairly strong at ISO 200), Mild vignetting at widest zoom setting / maximum aperture, No manual control of shutter sp...
I really liked the TZ1 - as a concept and as a camera to use - and I would have been able to give it a much more wholehearted recommendation had the image quality issues and shutter lag not let it down so badly. The TZ3 is a camera I wanted to like ev...
Good image quality with good light, 10X optical zoom, Excellent stabilization system, Large 3inch monitor, Simple to use, Fast and responsive
Compression a bit too strong at the highest image quality, Sensitive to noise from 400 ISO and up, Low power flash
The new Panasonic DMC-TZ3 shares its body design with the DMC-TZ2. Of the two, this is the higher resolution model, offering a 7.2-megapixel resolution and a 3-inch LCD monitor, while the DMC-TZ2 has a 6-megapixel resolution and a 2.5-inch monitor. Th...
One year on from the original DMC-TZ1, and the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 is still a very distinctive camera in an even more crowded market-place, thanks to its combination of a 10x ultra-zoom lens and relatively compact dimensions. Using such a small ca...
Abstract: Panasonic has released two updates to last years DMC-TZ1 model, which we reviewed in June 2006: the 6-megapixel DMC-TZ2 and the 7.2-megapixel DMC-TZ3 (which is reviewed here). Both have the same 10x optical zoom lens, which covers a focal length range...
