    If you can do without HD video with stereo sound, then the TZ6 is a great alternative to the TZ7. However, the narrow viewing angles on its screen make it very difficult to see if you're holding it above the heads of a crowd. Read more

    The DMC-TZ6 offers a good mix of features, apart from its limited manual control. So, if you’re quite happy for your camera to make most of the shooting settings for you, then this model will deliver the goods under most shooting conditions. If you want HD movies and a few extras, then it’s worth shelling out a bit more the DMC-TZ7. But if you’re simply looking for a big zoom inside a small(ish) camera and aren’t too fussed about high quality video, then save... Read more

    The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 not only does more than you could possibly expect from any pocket-sized camera, it does it spectacularly well. Other cameras may be smaller, cheaper or offer more manual control, but, as a package, the TZ6 provides unparalleled practicality, versatility and quality Read more

    Panasonic Lumix DMC TZ6 I bought this camera last Summer to upgrade my previous digital camera . I decided on the TZ6 as I mainly want to take photos rather than videos, though it does have the facility if I want to use it. I would have chosen the TZ7 if I was more "into" taking videos. I am an amateur and am very impressed with the photos I have taken in the last 7 months - the camera is very easy to use and the battery life is very good. When switching the camera on it...

    As a buildings archaeologist I needed a light weight camera with wide angle and good telephoto options After trying out two competitors with poor build quality or other drawbacks, I chose this as the menu was easy to read and has an option to have a larger size font. Most camera menu fonts are too small or show up badly against the backgrounds. (Professional reviewers should check accessibility design please). The lack of a viewfinder is now a major issue with all... Read more
