Specification :
Visually you'll be hard-pressed to spot the difference between the TZ90 and the new TZ95, however, the top plate is now missing the speckled paint of the TZ90, and looks more utilitarian (and square) in design. The rear thumb grip has been updated slightly, and there's a slight but insignificant difference in size and weight, we're only talking about 1.5mm taller, and 0.4mm thicker. It's also 6g heavier.
The main differences to be found are the inclusion of Bluetooth, and the higher resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF), with the TZ95 offering a slightly larger 0.21inch LVF with 2330K dots, and 0.53x magnification, compared to 0.20inch LVF with 1166K dots, and 0.46x magnification on the TZ90. Apparently, there's also a TZ96 and TZ97, with 2x digital zoom, instead of 4x digital zoom.
The Leica branded 30x optical zoom lens offers a zoom range from 24mm to 720mm (equivalent), and there is a 20-megapixel 1/2.3inch BSI CMOS sensor, a tilting 3inch touch-screen. The electronic viewfinder (EVF) has eye-detection and dioptre correction.
There's a range of shooting modes including P, A, S, M modes, giving you full manual controls, as well as raw recording. iA (iAuto / intelligent Auto) automatically detects the scene and selects the best settings for you. Creative Filters are available, with 22 different effects possible when taking still photos. Scene modes are available with 24 different scenes to choose from, with guides advising how to get the best results.
Macro focus lets you focus on subjects 3cm away from the front of the lens, and hybrid 5-axis image stabilisation helps keep shots and video steady in low light or when using a lot of optical zoom. The ISO range extends from ISO80 up to ISO6400, and the camera can shoot at 10fps at the full resolution of 20 megapixels.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ95 is known as the ZS80 in America and some other countries.
4K video lets you record 3840x2160 (UHD) resolution video, four times the resolution of FullHD video, and the camera has stereo microphones built-in. 4K photo lets you shoot at 30fps, and then select which photos to save as 8-megapixel images. There are a number of burst modes to help you get the best out of this mode, and there's a 4K photo/post focus button on the camera to give quick access. Post-focus uses the 4K photo technology to let you set the focus point after taking the photo, and focus stacking will combine all images to create images with more of the photo in focus.
