The Panasonic DMC TZ7 is aimed at people who are travelling or taking a well earned holiday. Considering the lens offers 12x optical zoom the size of the camera is very small and compact. Although too large for standard sized pockets the camera is still much smaller than most other digital cameras offering this length of lens.
Other plus points when considering the lens are the fact it has wide angle capabilities and the amount of zoom can also be increased if you are shooting at lower resolutions. The wide angle capabilities mean that the DMC TZ7 is able to capture sweeping landscapes while still being able to zoom in on more distant subjects. If you drop the resolution to under 3m you have access to over 21x zoom.
Another feature that is likely to be attractive to you if you are going on holiday is the fact the DMC TZ7 is able to take HD quality movies. These can then be played back on an HD ready television.
