Waterproof Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TS3 Digital Camera 12MP 5x for $276 + free shipping



Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TS3 12MP 5x Waterproof Digital Camera for $276 + free shipping









Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS3 12.1 MP Rugged/Waterproof Digital Camera with 4.6x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7-Inch LCD




Right now, Amazon.com has got the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TS3 12.1-Megapixel Digital Camera in Silver for $275.99. Features include a 2.7" LCD, 4.6x optical zoom with image stabilization, 1280x720 (720p) HD video capture, 19MB built-in memory, SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card slot, HDMI, USB connectivity, and more. It's also shockproof, waterproof, dustproof, and freezeproof. Myself, I have the DMC-ZS7 and I love it.



As a Lumix owner, I would have to recommend considering also picking up the Wasabi Power Battery and Charger Kit for Panasonic Lumix. The camera, as it comes, only charges via USB cord. In my opinion a standalone charger and extra batteries are key. The Wasabi Power battery and charger kit includes TWO Panasonic Lumix firmware compatible batteries and one charger with a European plug AND a car adapter. The batteries meet or exceed OEM standards (higher capacity than the originals) and come with a 3-year manufacturer warranty.

1 Panasonic Lumix DMC-S1 12.1MP Digital Camera, 720p, 4x Optical Zoom, 2.7" LCD, 28mm Wide Angle Lens

Right now at http://woot.com These inexpensive Lumix cameras will not last long. I predict they will sell out before 9am.


Also, for the time being Panasonic has made sure that the Panasonic DMW-BCK7 Lithium-Ion Battery is the only replacement battery available for this camera.


________

For when it's sold out at woot: Same camera, Panasonic Lumix DMC-S1 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom with 2.7-Inch LCD, at Amazon for $92

but if I were in the market for a "cheap but better than entry level" Lumix, I'd more likely go with this one, Panasonic DMC-FH25K 16.1MP Digital Camera with 8x Wide Angle Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7 inch LCD (Black), for $129

but I'm not, however. as I am in love with my new Lumix DMC-ZS6 that I got from woot last month. Thanks, woot!

WOOT: $139 LUMIX DMC-ZS6 12MP 12x Optical Leica Zoom Lens (Score!)

[Update: the woot cameras are sold out - here's some comparable Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS6 cameras at Amazon]

Right now on woot.com:

Panasonic 12MP Digital Camera with Leica 12x Optical Zoom & HD Video

$139.99

  • + $5 shipping
CONDITION:
Refurbished
PRODUCT:
1 Panasonic DMC-ZS6 12MP - Leica Lens, 12x Optical Zoom (25-300mm), 3" LCD, HD Video + 2GB SD Card


I just dropped the hammer on one of these. I had been wanting the ZS7 for the GPS feature, but I like that this one uses Motion JPG instead of the AVCHD Lite video codec. And aside from those things, it's the same camera, and it's a very good one... and for any camera with this much optical zoom, the price is great - and they retail for alot more. Stoked to get this - I've needed a new pocket camera for a while, plus it should come just in time for the Steve Martin / Martin Short show in Chicago we're going to in a couple weeks (seats in the front row of the loge). Might get one of those Eye-Fi cards to make up for the lack of geotagging, too.

Also ordered a Wasabi Power Battery and Charger Kit for Panasonic, comes with two Lumix compatible batteries, a euro adapter, and a car charger for $29.99 + free shipping. Seemed like the way to go.
