Customer Review

Who unpacks the camera briefly, then without the features of the camera to know a couple of photos making, which will be perhaps a little disappointed. In fact, in my opinion, the Panasonic TZ10 the best picture quality among the travel Minis, but only in good weather. Anyone who has ever tried to make in less favorable lighting conditions with such a small superzoom camera photos, the limits are quickly reached. Not so with the Sony HX5V Fuji F300 EXR or: these cameras have features that in the TZ10 are still missing.

So you can at dusk amazingly low noise and sharp photos out of your hands (without stand) make, because the camera simply makes a number of shots in very rapid succession and together credited to an image. Every single photo "rushes" of course, extreme, but the noise averages out eventually, because every image rushes different. I so get results, when even my Canon dSLR 50D can not keep up!

Also for the Macro mode keeps the HX5V something ready: to achieve the "exemption" of Blümchen (= sharp blossom, blurred background), making the camera easy 2 or 3 shots very quickly. She expects the images together suitable. Result: tack-sharp flower, very blurred background. That can really only dSLRs with large sensor. From physical / visual reasons this is in the tiny sensors of travel cameras actually not possible, but the trick (multiple shots) gives class Macro recordings.

And: Anyone who has ever zusammengefummelt panoramas from single images of the panorama function of the HX5V appreciate: 1) press shutter 2) Slowly turn around its own axis, 3) finish. Internal "filming" the camera and the calculated from the film panorama. Even the current through the panorama people are eliminated.

He continued: Friends of architectural photography will be thrilled: normally show these little Knips-o-mats a strong barrel distortion at the wide-angle end (again physical / optical reasons). Now Sony knows but of course, the strength of the distortion in the respective focal length range and expects them out easy! Straight edges remain grade, photographed better and more accurate than with a DSLR (without equalization).

There are a few more useful functions, but I think my enthusiasm came over. Conclusion: Anyone who is a bit familiar with the possibilities of the HX5V, which has an optimal tool for almost every purpose. Anyone who wants to take pictures only in Oma mode, let him take the TZ10.
