Description The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 is a compact superzoom camera featuring a 5MP CCD sensor and a 10x Leica optical zoom lens in a slim, travel-friendly body. This blue-bodied example has been fully tested and functions correctly, but shows some surface tackiness—likely due to ageing of the soft-touch coating. Ideal for collectors, digicam revivalists, or those seeking classic CCD colour rendering.
Condition Good working condition with cosmetic note. Camera powers on and functions correctly. Lens optics clean, no haze or fungus. LCD screen bright and responsive. Some tackiness present on grip or body surface (see photos).

Collectors Notes Released in 2006, the TZ1 was the world’s smallest 10x zoom camera at launch. Its CCD sensor and Leica optics deliver rich colour and sharpness, making it a favourite for retro digital workflows. The blue finish adds visual appeal, and the tackiness is common with ageing coatings—can be cleaned or left as-is for authenticity.
