Hi, I think of buying this camera. But one important thing I should know before I will buy it: Is there an autofocus while recording a video? If you move an object closer to the camera, does the camera focus on this new situation? Or does it get blurred? This is a very important aspect for me, so please answer me...thanks in advance
Got my TZ5A yesterday and am pleased with the ease of use, flexibility and with the many features afforded for the price. Hope to improve now the quality of my youtube vids.
The manual states "The camera may become warm during use", "especially the grip area".
Then it states "this does not affect the performance or the quality of the camera".
LOL, every camera, pda, ipod, zune, every product that uses batterys gets warm when using batterys. Its a by product of the batterys conversion of energy. lol
there is hissing sound in the background. Does it come up everytime?
thinking of buying same ideo is clear though far better than my sony dscw150
Hate sony

Yes, autofocus works fine in video mode.

you turn off continuous auto focus on the menu. It fixes the focusing problems

The video looks great, the sound is awful though. You can actually upload videos encoded in high definition now and they will work on youtube.

kristy007l, I beg to differ. Messy rooms, not the house.

What kind of fast card do you use? The video is good.

Disappointed with the sound quality of my TZ5. I notice now that they all hisssss and the voice quality is really bad.
Folks, if curious about Panasonic quality, search
"TZ5 sound sucks"
for a demonstration.

This moron posted the same thing on my video.

my hand got to warm i couldnt take pictures like that!
it was to hot for me!
darlinggg2 3 years ago
yeah but the voice/mic isnt the best, but returning the camera because it gets HOT on your hands is just pure bullshit.
he might just return his next camera aswell because all cameras gets hot!
about the mic, TZ5 has a problem, but not if u put it out for some sound...
try to speak or sit next to the TV or something, and it should be better...
