Playback

The camera can create slideshows easily. Still, there’s No HD or HDMI output, and the included video cable is standard def only.

The TX5 has a big, bright sharp screen, and it makes the most of this to playback images with a variety of slideshows and playback options. Slide shows can be easily created with a number of transition effects, and it comes with four types of music, as well as the ability to upload your own MP3s with the bundled ‘Music Transfer’ application. Images can sorted by date, and up to 28 thumbnails can be viewed on screen at once.

You get a decent selection of basic editing tools with the TX5: images can be cropped, resized, rotated and have red-eye removed. There is also a basic image editing program that allows you to draw onto images using the touch screen, but this is extremely primitive and is best avoided.

The editing menu of the TX5

Both DPOF and PictBridge support are offered on this camera, which allow images to be flagged for printing, or for a direct connection to a printer. This camera also supports TransferJet, a new short range wireless feature that allows images to be transferred quickly.

    Panasonic Lumix FZ150

    Excellent image quality, speedy performance, and a great design add up to the best superzoom that has ever graced our labs. That distinction seems to change hands every week, but trust us when we say that the FZ150 is a truly great camera. Read full 16-part review

    Sony Cyber-shot HX100V

    This professionally-geared ultrazoom offers some of the best color accuracy we've ever seen. It's a shame the other scores weren't quite so strong. Read full 16-part review

    Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ47

    Panasonic resists the urge to cram more megapixels and more focal length into their latest ultrazoom. The FZ47 instead focuses on image quality and features, resulting in an incredibly strong camera that we loved shooting with. Read full 16-part review
