Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 review
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 superzoom combines a 12x zoom and 25mm-equivalent wide-angle lens with 720p video recording to create an excellent follow-up to the earlier TZ6 model. This 'hybrid' camera produces superb images, but does it come out on top in the sibling rivalry? Read more

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 review
The Panasonic DMC-FZ18 is a mammoth superzoom, packing in 18x zoom lens and 8 megapixels. Despite its large dimensions, it's great fun to use, and is an uncluttered and responsive dSLR-like interface giving access to a wealth of features. It's all the fun without actually being a dSLR Read more
