Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3

It’s a strange sense of satisfaction when I come to the same decision as a photography blog. I have been waiting for the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3 for almost a year now. I currently own the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ2. It has been an excellent camera with only a couple of items wanting: I wanted SDHC support and I wanted better video quality. I have watched Panasonic’s progress for a long time, just waiting for this camera to become available. Imagine my delight when PhotographyBLOG gave it a 4.5 out of 5 star rating:

They have lots of juicy pictures and lots of technical photography talk explaining why this camera deserves such a good rating. Honestly, I am so indebted to Panasonic’s Optical Image Stabilizer (anti-shake) that I wouldn’t even consider buying another camera. It makes my videos smooth as glass when I’m walking, which is more than half the battle to filming good walking videos. The fact that I’ll have 10X Zoom, a larger Leica lens and the approval of the PhotographyBLOG is just icing on the cake.

  1. Hi:

    I looked at the review you linked to. I noticed that they show a Compact Flash card and a SD. The SD is obviously the memory card – but why did they photograph with a Compact Flash card? Does that mean I can finally dig out my old CF card and use it again?!

  2. No, this camera does NOT use a compact flash card. I think PhotographyBLOG used the compact flash in that photo to show how small the camera is.

    I own this camera and it only uses SD cards.
