You can adjust the colours, using the colour presets, and there are options to set the contrast, sharpness, noise reduction, and saturation. The HDR shooting mode is found in the menus but isn't available if you're shooting raw.

The electronic viewfinder (EVF) is quite small but fairly clear, with a decent resolution. When using the EVF you can use the touchscreen to move the focus position, although if you are using your left eye you need to be careful that your nose doesn't touch the screen and change the focus position. You can switch this feature off if you want.

This consists of the possibility to choose a frame from a video recorded at 30fp and save it as an 8 megapixel image. Add to this the 180° tilting screen and the result is the ability to take high resolution selfies. 30x Optical Zoom

Upon release the Panasonic Lumix TZ90 (known as the Lumix ZS70 in North America) was heralded as a ‘selfie friendly’ update to its manufacturer’s long running series of travel zoom cameras; chiefly because it added a rear panel LCD screen that could be flipped upwards rather than outwards, enabling it to face whoever was standing in front of the lens – thereby allowing for more accurate framing of self portraits. Our used products are subject to wear and tear in comparison to brand new products. This also applies to accessories that are supplied with the camera including batteries which may have a lower optimum performance level/life expectancy. Sell the kit you’re not using to MPB. Trade in for the kit you need to create. Buy used, spend less and get more. Buy. Sell. Trade. Create. The 20.3-megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor records high-quality images in remarkable detail. It also combines with the Venus Engine to take stunning pictures even in dimly lit environments with minimal image noise. Life in Vivid Detail If there’s a disappointing aspect of the TZ90, it’s the image quality. It’s not that it’s bad, it’s just that it’s not up to the same lofty standards as the rest of the camera – but it’s not really Panasonic’s fault.

Review Roundup

The ultra-wide-angle 24mm lens is superbly versatile, extending to 720mm at the telephoto end. It is a LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens, and passes Leica’s stringent standards resulting in crisp clarity and minimum distortion and flare. Power O.I.S is on hand to help keep your shots sharp, no matter which focal length you’re using, too. Although the maximum wide aperture of f/3.5 wouldn’t normally be associated with super shallow depth of field effects, if you use the macro focusing mode and get close to a subject you can get some nice looks. Use a card with SD Speed Class with "UHS-I Speed Class 3 (U3)" when recording motion pictures with [MP4] in [4K] or [4K PHOTO]. (SD speed class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing.) Being able to record 4K video, and also the 4K Photo modes is something which is likely to appeal to quite a few different people too. The tilting touch-sensitive screen is super handy for selfies, while the viewfinder is there if you need it, if not to be used all the time.

The camera’s tilting screen still measures 3 inches, as on the TZ80, but it can now tilt around a full 180-degree angle to face the front. Its resolution of 1040k dots is pleasingly high, and the fact that it responds to touch makes setting the focus point and keying in certain settings simple. Normal: Wide 50 cm - infinity / Tele 200 cm - infinity/AF Macro / MF / Intelligent Auto / Motion Picture: Wide 3 cm - infinity / Tele 200 cm - infinityKey to the TZ90's specification is its long-standing 30x optical zoom, delivering a 24-720mm equivalent focal length, for snapping wide-angle shots of your mates or those far-away subjects as if they're close-up in the frame. If you're contemplating a holiday camera then this Panasonic might take top marks on that fact alone - but with 4K video and photo features adding to its pomp, there's plenty of reasons to recommend this camera. Actual recordable time is the time available for recording when repeating actions such as switching the power supply [ON] / [OFF], starting/stopping recording, zoom operation etc. Yes, the TZ90 has a big zoom, but through clever engineering it retracts almost all the way into the camera’s body when powered down. There’s a protrusion of around a centimetre, but Panasonic’s cleverly wrapped an adjustment dial around that, making good use of the space. The Panasonic Lumix DC-TZ90 offers a Macro setting that allows you to focus on a subject that is 3cms away from the camera when the lens is set to wide-angle. With it's compact size, the Lumix TZ90 from Panasonic ;is the ideal travel camera for both high resolution still photography and 4K videography. A 20.3 megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor is paired with the Leica DC Vario-Elmar 24-270mm Lens capable of 30x zoom to ensure you can get your shot no matter how far or close you are to the subject. 5-axis Hybrid OIS will ensure you don't have to worry about camera shake, or that you can photograph in unfavourable lighting conditions.
