LCD monitor characteristics

Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD monitor screen. However there may be some dark or bright spots (red, blue or green) on the screen. This is not a malfunction.

The LCD monitor screen has more than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere

0.01% of the pixels inactive or always lit. The spots will not be recorded on pictures on the built-in memory or a card.

Unit temperature

The camera may become warm during use. (Especially grip area, etc.)

This does not cause a problem with the performance or quality of the camera.

To prevent damage and faults

Avoid shocks, vibration, and pressure

Avoid exposing the camera to strong vibration or shock; e.g. dropping or hitting the camera, or sitting down with the camera in your pocket. (Attach hand strap to avoid dropping camera. Hanging any items other than the supplied hand strap from the camera can apply pressure against it.)

Do not press the lens or the LCD monitor.

Do not get the camera wet or insert foreign objects

This camera is not waterproof.

Do not expose the camera to water, rain, or seawater.

(If camera gets wet, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Wring cloth thoroughly first if wet with seawater, etc)

Avoid exposing lens and socket to dust or sand, and do not allow liquids to leak into gaps around buttons.

Avoid condensation caused by sudden changes in temperature and humidity

When moving between places of different temperature or humidity, place camera into a plastic bag and allow to adjust to conditions before use.

If the lens clouds up, turn off the camera and leave for about two hours to allow camera to adjust to conditions.

If the LCD monitor clouds up, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.

When using tripod

Do not apply excessive force or tighten screws at an angle (may damage camera, screw hole, or label.)

Ensure that the tripod is stable. (Read the tripod’s instruction manual.)

When transporting

Turn off the camera.

We recommend using a genuine leather case (DMW-CT3, optional).

Lens

If lens is dirty:

Images may appear slightly white if lens is dirty (fingerprints, etc.).

Turn the power on, hold the extracted lens barrel with your fingers, and gently wipe the lens surface with a soft, dry cloth.

DMC-TZ7, DMC-TZ65, DMC-TZ6 specifications

The Panasonic DMC-TZ series has been a popular line of compact digital cameras, known for their versatility, user-friendly features, and quality performance. Among the notable models are the DMC-TZ6, DMC-TZ65, and DMC-TZ7, each offering a unique blend of technological advancements and innovative features to meet the needs of photography enthusiasts and casual users alike.

The DMC-TZ6, released as part of the series, boasts a 12.1-megapixel sensor and a Leica DC Vario-Elmar lens that offers a 12x optical zoom, providing impressive close-up shots and landscape photography capabilities. With the incorporation of Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.), users can capture sharp images even in low-light conditions or while on the move. The camera's Venus Engine allows for quick processing speeds, ensuring that users can capture images with reduced noise levels and vibrant colors.

Building on the success of its predecessor, the DMC-TZ65 features a slightly improved 16-megapixel sensor and an extensive zoom range of 20x, coupled with an impressive focal length that spans wide-angle to telephoto. This model continues to embrace features like O.I.S. to mitigate blurriness and deliver crystal-clear images. Additionally, the TZ65 introduces Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing users to easily share their photos and videos on social media platforms or transfer files directly to their smartphones. The built-in GPS feature also enhances travel photography, providing geotagging capabilities for memorable locations.

The DMC-TZ7 is another noteworthy entry in the lineup that offers advanced features appealing to a broader audience. With a 12.1-megapixel sensor and a 25mm ultra-wide-angle lens, this camera achieves stunning perspectives and greater depth in images. The TZ7 is equipped with HD video recording capabilities, making it just as adept at capturing high-definition video as it is at still photography. Its Intelligent Auto mode utilizes advanced scene detection technology to adjust settings automatically for optimal results, ensuring even novice photographers can achieve impressive shots effortlessly.

In summary, the Panasonic DMC-TZ6, DMC-TZ65, and DMC-TZ7 offer a remarkable array of features tailored to diverse photographic needs. From high-resolution sensors and powerful zoom capabilities to smart connectivity options and user-friendly modes, these cameras reflect Panasonic's commitment to delivering quality and innovation in compact photography. Whether for travel, events, or spontaneous moments, the TZ series continues to be a reliable choice for capturing life's memories with style and efficiency.
