Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS5 (Lumix DMC-TZ8) prices and specs
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS5 (Lumix DMC-TZ8) was released on Jan 26, 2010. For now the lowest price for the device is $79.99.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS5 (Lumix DMC-TZ8) belongs to the category of compact cameras. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The camera has various automatic modes but you won't shoot pictures of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The device can make images at 12 megapixels highest resolution. But for better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This model has a 1/2.33' (6.08 x 4.56 mm) sensor which means that the camera will produce images with not so high quality as cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Lumix DMC-ZS5 (Lumix DMC-TZ8) has small dimensions and weight. But if you want to produce images of the best quality pay attention to Leica M Monochrom (Typ 246).
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/1300 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway you will manage to produce images of moving subjects. The photographer will be able to record HD videos that guarantees a satisfactory picture quality.
The lens is built into the device and the camera owner can't change it. The lens provides great 12x optical zoom.
