Haha...Totally din read this thread for so long....I got the TZ15 for RM1,199.after hard bargaining & showing them the print-out from the cheapest I can get in lelong (RM1050 without card/tripod/casing) Price inclusive of 2GB class 4 Ori Panasonic SD, Tripod & casing...
Hi stimix bro... congratulations on your new camera rclxms.gif rclxms.gif I got mine at RM1280 cry.gif cry.gif
Do you know how to set this camera to auto stamp the date on the photos? According to user manual page 73, you can only stamp the date on the photos manually...

Ehh..me too dunno how to set during shooting but via the provided Panasonic Photofunstudio, just before printing, u can flag the date. Or if u send to any camera shop u can just ask them to add the date.. biggrin.gif

Hmmm... no choice liao... have to set it manually rclxub.gif rclxub.gif
I dont like Photofun studio, too complicated. I prefer ArcSoft, more user friendly.
Thanks for you info anyway. I will try google a bit cheers.gif cheers.gif

lol.... TZ15 best best oso. though not a hot selling model. i think thats why they pelik pelik ask u....

relatively big n heavy. but what a lot of people dont know is.....

TZ15 proudly with its 10x zoom. is the smallest of its class for a compact with 10x zoom.
n its LCD screen damn nice oso(460k dot in 3inch)  rclxms.gif

Indeed. I have tried a 10x zoom (16.9x on 3MP) on a signboard and it is still clear.
This signboard is 2km away from my camera and I can still read the writings on this signboard. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Here is the sample picture :

How many hours can TZ15 battery last?
*
Mine can only last for about 200++ shots. I saw the dpreview said it's battery life up to 300 pictures (CIPA Standard)
Better get a spare battery if you want to buy TZ15

yaa hoo... finally got my tz15 from harvey norman. before my trip to genting tomorrow. rm1270+rm172 for additional 3 yr warranty. 4gb panasonic sd card, tripod, screen protector and soft cases. i think this is value for money already. oh forgot to mention, got it on 12 mth free installment (rm111/mth). he.. he..

i would recommend harvey norman (sunway pyramid) anytime to anybody (camera only, other things never bought from them). this is my first purchase. go and see sales assistant simon xxx there. kudos to him. even let me try other camera when asked even though hes already processing my sales. (now i'm really promoting them. he.. he..) ya lor. its not easy to be professionally serve nowadays.

first impression on tz15. wow!! first when i saw cameltosis photos then unclecheang ayam goreng (yummy). first hand experience using it in the shop also wow. then on the way back open box in the car. luckily battery already charge a little bit. snap here snap there. wow again. picture fantastic. i'm comparing this to my old exilim (ex-600).

so people, if you looking pns camera, long zoom, mid range price, good quality (not saying the best coz i think lx3 is more impressive), can put in pocket, good goodies (maybe), this is the camera to go for. at least for now i'm very2 happy with it.

hopefully this good input for u guys who looking for new compact camera.

p/s maybe i should thanks cameltosis and unclecheang for "cucuk2" me.

Remeber to bring along your charger bro. This TZ15 battery is not going to last very long on the 3 inch screen.
Better get a spare battery if you want to shot whole day.
Good night & enjoy your trip tomorrow icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif
