DP Review has reviewed the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 where they write - 'The TZ1 is one of those cameras that positively encourages you to take pictures, to experiment, to try different framing and viewpoints, and the lightning-quick focus and simple operation make it a surprisingly nimble operator too. It is all the more disappointing then, that the overall package is let down by it's sensor. By only using the middle bit of the 6.3MP CCD in the TZ1, the lens is kept small, and the camera more compact, but you end up with a very small 5MP sensor indeed, and that has some serious ramifications. Heavy noise and even heavier noise reduction mean I personally wouldn't risk using it at anything over ISO 100, and even then you're losing some low contrast detail to NR. You can see noise it you look closely at even ISO 80, though this is usually masked by the fairly high contrast and is unlikely to mar standard sized prints.'
