For an upcoming vacation, I was looking for another addition to my EOS 600D. After an extensive test with the TZ31 could almost to the idea that come to be "big" camera at home. Sometimes fast still a little video (Full HD) here, or on various occasions made spontaneously a quick photo. And what kind of photos. Abgeshen of the brilliant quality of the photos you can create it in 3D or as Panaroma. With a little practice are made quickly and easily the photos. The intelligent automatic is another highlight. You will quickly see to what motives it act and provides for the appropriate mode automatically. Targets to be a face on the schwubs iAutomatik around into portrait mode. That works with landscape motifs, etc just as quickly and reliably. This makes the stand-alone programs almost superfluous. Those who want to can also adjust everything by hand and take pictures. Highlight is the huge zoom range. So very close to his subjects, even when filming. The videos in Full HD are on an appropriate indicator of the hammer. The camera is good and intuitive to use, despite its compactness. The menu is no mystery and explained himself at many points. With this camera, you are prepared for any use and always has a great photo quality included. Oh, GPS, the camera also. But make coffee you have to continue even himself. ;-)
