Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3
Previous: Page 6
Sample PhotosNext: Page 8
HardwarePlayback
The ZS3 has a big, bright screen and plenty of playback options…but no calendar mode.
Playback Mode
The ZS3 allows you to do a lot with the photos you have taken. You can look at groups of them at once (up to 36 at once on screen), look at those in a specific category (such as those with faces, landscapes, etc) or pick those taken on a certain date. You can also take a very close look at them with a 16x zoom on playback that lets you get right in to see the details. There are a couple of things missing, though; there is no calendar view, and there is no way to sort images into albums.

In-Camera Editing (3.00)
Only a handful of basic image editing features are on offer with this camera: you can crop, resize and rotate images, but you cannot do any color correction, contrast adjustments or other tweaking. This many not be a huge loss, though; most of these features are better handled in a dedicated image editing program on a computer, anyway.
Direct Print Options (6.00)
Support is included for the common DPOF and PictBridge printing features. DPOF allows you to mark photos for printing on the memory card, and a compatible printer will notice this and select the marked photos for printing. PictBridge allows you to connect directly to a compatible printer through the USB cable, and select and print images from the camera.

Nikon Coolpix L810 First Impressions Review
Nikon’s L810 is a AA-powered ultrazoom that somehow manages 26x for under $300. Some cost-cutting efforts have certainly been made, and controls are quite simplified, but for the right user this could be an ideal camera. Read More...
