LUMIX TZ/ZS99 Point and Shoot Camera, Compact Camera for Travel with 30x Zoom with 24-720mm Zoom Lens, and 4K Video/Photo, Great for Travel and Concerts, DC-TZ99 (Silver)

I bought this for my wife and she loves it.

The camera is very easy to use and works great during the day as well as night pictures

The camera itself is excellent. Build quality is great: clicky, snappy controls and a surprising amount of customization. Full PASM features are well represented and the camera has an unbelievably deep menu for a point-and-shoot. The BEST features are the stepped zoom and the ability to turn on "Lens Position Resume" which allows you to hop back to the last focal distance used when turning the camera back on. I cannot overstate how useful that is on a power zoom lens. Should be noted that the Leica D-Lux 8 (a zoom camera that's almost $2k as of this review) is missing this feature! In general the UI and utility of the TZ are awesome. Battery life is better than expected. Back screen is surprisingly good and articulates in one direction. Image quality is decent. If you're ok with noise/grain, or can at least work with it (raws are still somewhat malleable up to ISO 1600) there's 20 megapixels' worth of resolution. More than most folks need. The only unfortunate quality of the lens/sensor is the amount of color aberration at the corners. But this is in-keeping with the 2010's digicam aesthetic, so it might work for you. For what it's worth, the Tough TG-7 also exhibits this kind of color fringing. Note: The only reason I took a point off is that, even though I ordered from the US, the copy of the camera that I received is very much a TZ version. This means it was meant for the European/Asian market. Someone (most likely the reseller, which, oddly, was also from the US) had preset the camera to English and replaced the OEM manual with a laser-copied, stapled version (also in English). As far as I can tell, the camera is in good working order, the rest of the box contents are correct, and the only difference between the TZ and ZS versions is the firmware you'll have to download from Lumix. However, this kind of tinkering with the contents of the box is a little suspicious and doesn't inspire a lot of confidence.

Quality is not what I expected. Photo quality is poor, even for a 20 Megapixel camera. It is slow to turn on/shut off. Slow autofocus.

Great wide angle ok intermediate, soft telephoto. Looses WiFi connection and blue tooth easily. Size nice.

Unlike its predecessor, this camera does not have an electronic view finder which makes it not much different than much cheaper models.

Prompt delivery, brand new condition.

Great quality compact, many, many features (most of which I will probably never use!) but works very well on auto and feels nice and solid construction. Great optical zoom capability, with extra digital zoom if needed. Flip screen is nice and clear. Battery charges 'in camera' via USB, so no need to remove it (unlike my previous camera)

Over the years I’ve owned several Panasonic Lumix cameras in this format and have used them so frequently that I’ve worn them out. The latest version has remover the viewfinder as part of the design I would have liked it if they had kept this feature. So, 4 stars instead of 5.

Amé la cámara, cumplió con todas mis expectativas, al inicio me aparecía que llegaba en 2 meses, y terminó llegando en 2 semanas. Cabe resaltar que la cámara venía sin cable de carga, pero leyendo el manual y todos lods documentos, menciona que las cámaras para territorio Europeo, no iban a incluir cargador y es el caso de esta, pero fuera de eso todo bien

Amazing camera! i need to use it more to figure out the settings. Takes great pictures too. But if you like clear, crisp pics for both day and night then i think this cam is not for you.
