I don't personally consider that the the TZ200 is Junk. I'm getting excellent results from mine, far better than the TZ90 I returned. That really was junk. I'm baffled as to why DPR are getting ...

Thank you for these, they are most interesting! Firstly they show quite clearly that the image difference between the TZ/ZS 200 & FZ1000 is minimal in the real world. Inconsequential I would say, ...

A typical example from my TZ200 at the wide end: Is this useless rubbish, so soft at the corners that it should be consigned to the bin? Also, here's a WA example from my TZ100. If I'm not mistaken ...

Bill I agree fully. The only way  I could get close enough in the zoo even was 2x digital with a 14-140 on a G80.  The 350 of the TZ200 was too short and 2x digital with it caused unacceptable ...

Chris I fully understand the technicalities of that which you are saying but you, very obviously, do not. If you take a 20 m.p. image at 15x optical it is going to look somewhat superior to a 20 ...

I've go this camera and I bought it 3 months ago. I've used it extensively so I suspect I know a little more about it than you do. I had it's predecessor, the TZ100 for 18 months and I took tens of ...

Chris With the greatest of respect that is a very confused response. What on earth do you mean?  What are you trying to say? Dave

I went to the zoo yesterday and took a lot of photo's. With a 250mm  (35mm equivalent zoom), I would have had no chance of capturing the images I did. Another 50% made the difference.

With respect, that is your experience. As a long time user, my experience is totally different. I've posted a myriad of images from this camera, on this forum to prove my point very clearly. Dave

No I'm not, I'm being realistic and you aren't. With a 3x Sony you would have failed to take this. It wouldn't have the reach. Furthermore, I'm not ignorant , with a response like that I would ...

Thanks Phil, But why do I keep getting so damn lucky?  I suspect I know why; it is experience, patience and learning about your equipment.  It takes a bit of time.............. then you get "lucky" ...

Bill The battery is a minor point, the 50% increase in zoom and the better EVF are not. That said, you will get substantially better IQ from a bigger sensor, that is a given, but this is a ...

Spot on Bill. Agreed 100%

So go buy a 3x zoom Sony.

It's a great pic. Soft? What planet are you on, this is a quality, but still a travel zoom camera. Travel snaps and all that real stuff!

As the owner of a TZ200 and the former owner of a TZ100, who has used both cameras extensively, I can say without doubt that the TZ200 that I own has a sharper lens than the TZ100 I sold. There is ...

My experience of the ZS200 is at odds in many respects with the DP Review. I find my copy to be better in every respect than the TZ100 I owned before it. Dave

My TZ100 was crap until I reduced noise reduction to -5 & upped contrast and sharpness to +2 at which point I thought it was pretty good. It transformed it. My TZ200 has great IQ right through the ...

I am totally confused The review is inconsistent with my own experience as a long time user of both the ZS100  and 200. Dave

I Don’t know why you bothered responding to a thread that is over 2years old but in any event you are wrong. The G 7 has an AA filter. The G80/85 doesn't have one Dave
