Our quick take
Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ30 - 4.5 / 5
Superzoom: 20x optical zoom
Light Speed AF
New 14.1-megapixel sensor
TZ30: crammed with tech
Improved movie mode
To recap
The TZ30 improves on the TZ20 in every area. Image quality is decent but not outstanding, and battery life could be better, yet every other area is a winner. A great zoom range from 24-480mm, excellent image stabilisation, very fast autofocus and a great 1080p movie mode make this a real crowd-pleaser. It’s not cheap, but it offers lots of features for the cash.
