Product Overview

Panasonic Lumix DC-TS7 is an affordable 1/2.3" compact camera designed to handle the environment. Introduced by Panasonic in 2018, it comes with a 1/2.3" sensor with 20 MP (5184 x 3888) resolution and a 1.17 million-dot EVF.
The camera has a poor battery life, and a second or third battery may be needed to get you through the day. It should be noted for having a 80 base ISO, which promises cleaner shots. The 10.0 fps burst rate serves enthusiasts well enough, though some professionals may find it limiting.
The DC-TS7 comes with 49 autofocus points. Last but not least, the camera can focus quite close to the subject.
