Panasonic TZ7 falls in price

The Panasonic TZ7 has fallen to below £250, and even lower in some stores.  In case you needed reminding, it's far and away our favourite compact digital camera.  That's thanks to its 12x zoom crammed into a tiny frame and a video mode that can take on HD camcorders.  The stereo microphone certainly helps in this regard.

On that note, we've already examined whether or not a TZ7 really can replace a camcorder, with a piece weighing up the benefits of each option.  Take a look at the video at the ned of the article, which we shot on the TZ7 when we took it for a day at the races.  You'll be able to see (and hear) what it's capable of--and just what makes it different from other cameras.
