Hi all,
I've recently 'upgraded from a Nokia N95 to HTC Wildfire and miss having such a great camera as the N95 but thought I might as well get a proper camera with decent zoom...
Through several recommendations I'm thinking of one of the Lumix TZ series but a lot of the tech spec is confusing...
I'm thinking the TZ7 has the major better feature with the HD video quality but my Dad mentioned his Lumix has an issue where sound breaks up when zooming?
Is there much improvement from the TZ7 to TZ8 or TZ10 or is the TZ7 a really good camera?
I'm looking at the refurbs on a certain auction site which are between £150-200 as opposed to paying nearly £500 in a camera shop...
Many thanks in advance for any advice...
