I am delighted with this product. I found the functions of the TZ10 I liked, such as GPS that allowed me to find on Google Earth all points of interest that I photographed in the desert of Egypt, and to make an album Travel with the exact route. I almost did not buy the TZ30 for lack charger (in my opinion a gross error marketing) so essential when one is traveling. In fact I saw in a forum that was the same battery as the TZ10 (DMW-BCG10E), which allows me to keep my extra batteries TZ10 and load them with my old charger (also commercially available ). Very significant new features: the x20 zoom, panorama and performed in a single camera movement (no more hours of stitching - although it is fun to do); a formidable integrated HDR function, shooting in low lighting breathtaking (many pictures are superimposed to eliminate the noise !!. One regret, the lack Time Lapse function (which I had seen on some erroneous pubs). Finally, to respond to a review on this website, there is much internal memory. When we do not put an SD card, you can still shoot. GPS works better than the TZ10 which I used almost always in my travels. Get used to check if the point has been made before taking his picture, otherwise we must put the coordinates by hand with Xnview or other software.
