The Panasonic DMC-TZ10 is a superb camera with a 12x optical zoom and an extensive range of features. It is realistically small enough to put in the pocket and very easy to use. It’s best feature, however, is the outstanding Leica lens which lifts the camera’s performance way above that of a mobile phone.

I still have a TZ10. It really is pocket sized and it has a high quality, alloy case. The camera even stood up to a drop from waist height onto cobble stones in Madeira. I picked it up expecting it to be trashed - it worked and continues to work perfectly 4 years later - only a small dent on the underside edge of the metal case bears witness to the drop. Photos are sharp straight from the camera across the breath of the whole image at all zoom lengths. The only minor issue I have with the camera is that I find images tend to be a little over exposed on Intelligent Auto Mode and exposure adjustment is not possible under this mode either. I almost always use Aperture mode which allows me to increase saturation a little and also reduce exposure. I bought a TZ60 to replace the TZ10. Whilst it looks superior on paper, the images that the 18MP TZ60 produces are woefully soft straight our of the camera and are also noticeably blurred at the edges when taken at 190mm to 290mm. The blurring was so extreme that my TZ60 was sent back twice for repair - its still far short of great. The plastic cased, Chinese manufactured TZ60 really is a big let down compared to the excellent Japanese manufactured TZ10.Read full review

I have been a longtime fan of the Lumix TZ series, and regularly go for models a few years old to keep the price down, as being mainly a photographer of mountaineering activity I can be quite hard on them. This was my first TZ10 and it does take great photos. I didn't use the GPS feature at all. The TZ10 seems to be a bit better than the TZ8 at handling low-light situations when in Scene mode. Unfortunately, 2 weeks after purchase the LCD screen went black! Absolutely no blame to the seller, it is just what happens with electronics, random luck. It seems that replacing the backlight is about the same price as another secondhand camera, so back to the market I go. Caveat emptor.
