Testing my new Panasonic Lumix Camera DMC-TZ4P from Costco

I have also uploaded some test shots taken with my the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4 in "Intelligent Autmoatic" mode at:

Note to self: Keep my hand off the top left microphone button. I love this camera's zoom capability but need to learn how to keep it more stabilized. This five (5) minute video was a 357 megabyte .mov file. I must have recorded at the highest resolution; still getting used to this baby! :-)

were you using optical zoom only or a combination of optical and digital?

Thanks for asking. In this video, I was only using optical zoom.

learn how to film!!!Your making me dizzy!

[chetsgroi]

Learn how to read and listen. The point of this video was to deomonstrate and test out this camera's video ability - *NOT* my poor filming ability as you so kindly pointed out.

Thank you for your comment and question. Yes, I am extremely pleased with my camera's performance - especially, it's intelligent automatic function. This camera is also especially good on battery life and start-up time. I wished that it took better quality resolution pics at its extreme zoom range but other than that, I enjoy this camera a lot.

how many megapixeles have? is it possible to get a clear photo of text documents? is not blurring when you take an action photo? can you take a great pic indoors or in the dark? What kind of battery does it use?

Thanks for your reply
