All this the Lumix DMC-TZ7 does it like most devices of this range.
Icing on the cake: the 25mm lens - 300mm is a killer! Thank you the image stabilizer when the zoom is at its maximum (5 Mega x21 mode)
The wide angle of 25mm and super burst mode allows capture moments without being noticed. (Useful in some countries and circumstances). Macro mode operating up to 3 cm! The large screen ultra lightfull even in daylight ... it has the qualities!
That we want to capture the majesty of a landscape, or chopper on the fly wild animals, the TZ7 is the friend of globetrotter. Its portability makes it all the more enjoyable.
The TZ7 is really a "point & shoot" pleasant to use in all circumstances. The video mode has its own shutter release button and zoom while it is still active film. An HD camcorder quality in the pocket, I dared to dream.
A good class 6 card and minimum 8 gigas is paramount and a good solid cases, especially if like me, you trimballez everywhere in a bag before keeping it available in a jacket pocket.
The mine dial is not too loose (compared to the one I have tried when it was released was a real Russian roulette!) So the Panasonic rectify.
The device delivered by Amazon arrived quickly and as always super well packaged. Around the carton, there has 10cm of protection.
