The TS5 was released 3 years earlier than the ZS60 and that is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before getting right into a thorough comparison, here is a short summation of how the TS5 scores versus the ZS60 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS5 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS60. The complete galleries are provided at Panasonic TS5 Gallery and Panasonic ZS60 Gallery.

When you are going to lug around your camera often, you have to think about its weight and proportions.

More often than not, it is very hard to see the gap in sensor measurements just by researching specifications. The photograph below will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the TS5 and ZS60.

To sum up, each of these cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Panasonic ZS60 to render extra detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older TS5 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
