  A fast hardware data compression algorithm and some algorithmic extensions
For LZ1, compression is achieved by encoding backward references to the history, specifying a location and a byte count or length.
LZ1 also tends to be highly asymmetric, in that decompression is very easy and fast in software or hardware, compared to compression.
LZ1 decompression is relatively simple, requiring only a byte-wide SRAM of the same size as the history.

 Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1 / DMC-LZ2: Digital Photography Review
The LZ1 has a four megapixel CCD and a silver body, the LZ2 a five megapixel CCD and fl body.
The DMC-LZ2 and DMC-LZ1, thanks to the optical 6x zoom and MEGA O.I.S., are the perfect compact cameras for parents to easily take clear, beautiful pictures of family events such as traveling or camping and other moments worth preserving.
The LUMIX DMC-LZ2 and LZ1 are equipped with a newly developed optical 6x zoom (equivalent to a 37 – 222 mm zoom on a 35 mm film camera) lens, while keeping the body size as compact as ordinary 3x zoom cameras.

 [No title]
An LZ1 decompressor builds and maintains an identical history copy, which it updates in the same manner as the encoder, as each LITERAL or COPY POINTER is processed.
Extensive tests showed that the displacement components had a tendency to be distributed uniformly over the history address space, so a flat binary field, base-2 log of the history size in length, is used in ALDC to give optimal encoding for the displacement.
Conventional LZ1 algorithms do not perform especially well on data of this type, but by adding a small hardware preprocessor to recode the bitmap data stream before feeding to an ALDC compressor, a much better overall result is achieved.

 Duffbert's Random Musings - LZ1 Compression in Notes/Domino 6
LZ1 stands for "Lempel-Zev class 1"; it is a different method of compression from that of the Huffman algorithm, which is the method by which Notes/Domino R5 compresses attachments.
If the LZ1 compression option is set on a Domino 6 database, a Notes 5 client will be unable to read the compression.
The same is true of tasks involving data that was compressed using the Lempel-Ziv algorithm (LZ1 compression) -- such as replicating a mail file with a large number of compressed attachments.

 DCRP Review: Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1/LZ2
The LZ1 ($250) is silver only, while the LZ2 ($300) is available in silver or fl bodies (there are minor trim differences between the two models, as well).
The LZ1 is 4 Megapixel, while the LZ2 is 5 Megapixel.
With the LZ1 and LZ2, Panasonic is taking the same road as other camera manufacturers, by building flash memory right into the camera, instead of supplying a memory card.

 Review, Pictures and Sample Photos - Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1 4-Megapixel Digital Camera   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The Panasonic LZ1 is a compact 4-megapixel digital camera that features a 6x optical (37-222 mm equivalent focal length) f/2.8-4.5 zoom lens, optical image stabilization, 2-inch LCD screen and records images on Secure Digital cards (SD cards).
Among cool features offered by the LZ1 are two modes of optical image stabilization (Mode 1 stabilizes the image when you pre-focus, Mode 2 does so only when the shutter is released, giving you better battery life and sharper pictures).
You can click on the images to see the picture in full resolution (4 Megapixels, files are about 800 K in size).

 Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1 review by PC Magazine
It has two types of stabilization (called Vibration Reduction): Mode 1, which operates continuously, and Mode 2, which is a standby mode and activates only at the moment the shutter releases.
On our performance tests, the LZ1 had unexciting boot and recycle times of 4.6 and 3.6 seconds, respectively.
We think the LZ1 has some solid features, especially the 6X optical zoom lens and image stabilization.

 Amazon.com: Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1 4MP Digital Camera with 6x Image Stabilized Optical Zoom: Camera & Photo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Then I read in Business Week that the LZ1 and LZ2 had become the best selling cameras in Japan within several months of their introduction.
No independant reviews were available (even CNET) so I bought the LZ1 on the strength of it's technical spec's and my previous experiences with Panasonic products.
I took the LZ1 to the rodeo several days ago to test it under demanding conditions.

 Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1 Digital Camera - Read Reviews at Shopping.com
The Bottom Line: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ1 is an inexpensive, yet very versatile 4-Megapixel optically stabilized camera with 6x optical zoom.
The LZ1 is not a bad buy, though speed and flash performance could be better.
The advanced LZ2 has a similar 6x optical zoom lens and 2-inch LCD screen.

 Panasonic DMC-LZ1 Lumix 4 Megapixel Ultra-Compact Digital Camera w/ 6x Optical Zoom   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Image stabilization is important when using long zoom and slow shutter speeds to help reduce camera shake, and hence reduce the chances of obtaining blurry images.
Though the Panasonic LZ1 is a point-and-shoot digital camera, it incorporates some features that more advanced amateur photographers will appreciate: a real-time histogram for determining optimum exposure, and composition guide lines to help keep your horizontal level.
It also allows unlimited consecutive shooting up to the capacity of the SD Memory Card.
