Questions & Answers

Shopper : does it come with a battery?JONATHAN S : Yes, a battery is included.JEANNIE M : Yes it does. It's uncharged so allow a few hours to fully charge it.ROBERT S : Yes. Along with a charger that now unfortunately requires a cord (bulky). Suggest you get an extra battery too. Now, about the camera. The waterproof feature is great. I take in my kayak while fishing. Now the downsides: 1. The picture quality is not great. My iPhone 5S takes better photos under certain conditions. 2. The back viewing glass scratches easily. A few grains of sand will do it. I found out the hard way.JEAN S : Yes....RYAN C : Yes

Excellent

Takes great pictures out and under water. Durable and small enough to replace usual point and shoot. A wider view than usual cameras I use which is great.

So far so good

I bought this camera to take to Aruba with me. I'm a big snorkeler. The underwater pics came out OK, but it took time to focus and shoot, then paused until it was ready to shoot again. Frustrating when fish don't exactly stand still. The panorama feature however is pretty awesome. I'm sure this camera does much more, but I've only used it on one trip thus far.

Just try it and you'll love it.

Easy to operate right out of the box. Very user friendly controls and easy to figure out in no time.

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS5 Digital Camera (Black) is a Wi-Fi enable "tough" compact camera that can shoot both photos and Full HD video on land and underwater. A 16.1MP High Sensitivity MOS sensor provides high quality imaging and fast autofocus. A Leica DC Vario-Elmar lens offers focal lengths from wide-angle to telephoto at 28-128mm in 35mm format. Full HD 1080p is available at 60 or 30 frames per second with a dedicated one-touch button and built-in stereo microphone. Power O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilization) compensates for camera shake and offers clear images in low light or when shooting telephoto. Intelligent Auto (iA) Mode is available for simple point and shoot capability and Scene Mode provides predefined adjustments to shoot certain types of scenes (Sunset, Panorama, Night Scenery, etc.) with the ideal camera settings. The camera also features manual exposure control, time-lapse shooting and continuous burst shooting up to 10 frames per second at full resolution.

A 3.0" TFT LCD screen with 460k-dot resolution and anti-reflective coating provides composition and playback viewing. The TS5's compact and "grippable" design with raised buttons makes one hand shooting and adjustments easy. One touch video, Wi-Fi and playback buttons are ideal for the type of activity this camera is meant to document.

Built-in Wi-Fi enables you to send images to your smart phone or tablet with one touch. The TS5 also offers Near Field Communication (NFC) to connect with a compatible Wi-Fi device by simply tapping the two together. The Lumix Remote app must be downloaded to your smart phone or tablet to wirelessly connect with the TS5, but the app also allows your phone to be used as a remote control for your camera and offers cloud storage for your images, which can be important when shooting in locations where getting to your computer may be difficult. Built-in GPS functionality allows for geo-tagging of your images.

The tough features of the TS5 allow it to go pretty much anywhere your adventures take you. It is waterproof to a depth of 39' (12 m), shockproof from a drop height of 6.5' (2 m), freeze proof to a temperature of 14deg.F (-10deg.C) and pressure resistant to 220 lbs. It also offers anti-fog protection for its lens.
