At its 24mm wideangle extreme the TZ30 is able to plenty in the scene.

While at the other end – at 340mm – the TZ30 is able to bring the faraway boats in the harbour much closer.

Used in good natural light the TZ30 is super-fast to focus and produces pleasing results.

On the ‘Standard’ My Colour setting the TZ30 produces pleasing, lifelike colour.

The Panorama setting within the Scene mode sub-menu is a useful feature to have.
