Lumix DMC-TZ5 in SG already or not?

[JimDavis]

Just wonder if Lumix DMC-TZ5 already in SG? Anyone how much is the price, and what is the pic quality?

Is it the same model as TZ15? I think I saw @ BEST at Vivo City.

Price I think about $500++.

Bro,

TZ5 already here. It's known as TZ15 in SG. A quote from Panasonic Japan (http://panasonic.co.jp/pavc/global/lumix/tz5_tz4_tz15_tz11/index.html):

*Product number varies depending on the sales area (DMC-TZ5 or DMC-TZ15, DMC-TZ4 or DMC-TZ11).

Hope this helps!

Thanks a lot!

Has anyone tried it out? Is it made in Japan or made in China?

I came across this review by asia cnet, seems like the TZ-15 is very good.

The Underwater housing looks good. IT is available now.

I took a look at Harvey Norman over the weekend, think it is similar to it's predecessor (TZ-13???) except that it has the capability of doing HD video and pics...not sure how the HD pics going to turn out to be though...

Same issue, if only they can improve on the high ISO noise problem......:sweat:

I think it is very hard.... with the increase in resolution & small sensor size (to maintain the zoom factor).

Personally I think the TZ50 model would not be launched in SG.

I played some TZ5 HD video files from review sites and it appeared very jerky to me. I believe it should be my laptop, else it would've been flagged by the reviewers. Here are the links
