Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 unboxing video

We’ve reviewed a lot of Panasonic digital cameras in the past and have always been pretty impressed with the performance of the models in the Lumix range.

There’s a large selection of cameras in the Lumix range so if you are looking for a slim camera that’ll fit in your pocket then you’ll find one, if you want a camera with a wide angle lens you’ll find one and if you want a camera with a super-zoom then you’ll find one: the Lumix DMC-TZ6.

TZ6

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6

 

Panasonic DMC-TZ 6 – 25mm Ultra Wide-angle 12x Optical Zoom LEICA DC Lens and iA (Intelligent Auto) Mode with AF Tracking
The TZ series packs a LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens with 12x optical zoom into a compact body. This versatile photographic tool lets you shoot everything from sweeping vistas at the 25mm wide-angle setting to dynamic 300mm telephoto shots. And the lens system’s exquisite rendering ability lets you capture even the subtle nuances of the sights and scenes in your travels.

As always, we’ll be reviewing the Panasonic Lumix TZ6 over the next few weeks in real-world situations. Have a look at the brief unboxing video below to see the camera in a little more detail and then you can come back for the review later! 🙂
