I have been playing with my new TZ3 for about 1 week and this is my very first picture post.

I love the zoom on this camera. I saw this kid running with this huge beach ball from afar and capture this moment with the max zoom (10x). A little bit of corpping & auto smart fix in Element 5.0 and this is the result.



Thanks much for viewing!

Thanks for you comment Gil! I was quite surprised too when I saw the picture on my computer screen and the Exif data.

Here is the Exif:

ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/400
F-Stop: 4.9
Focal Length in 35mm: 280mm
 
This was taken from the passenger seat, on a bumpy road, at 10X! Absolutely unbelievable to me, the I.S. doing its job. I took 3 shots, this was the best but all were usable.

 
...even though it's equivalent to 280mm on a small sensor, on 35mm you're still looking at a 46/4.9 lens - which will have pretty large depth of field.
