For two months I've been taking this little gem for walks when the E-M5 with two primes and the zoom is too much to carry along, or just because I wanted to have a camera with me in case there's something interesting on my way.
What I like: no clicking through menues, everything can be set on the body. The zoom is fast, and for me this is just the ideal small camera to have always with me (jacket-pocket size, not trouser-pocket). So far I'm very satisfied with the results. I'm no pixel counter but I was rather dissatisfied with the TZ-61, especially in low light.
And for all you touch screen haters: you don't have to use it. With all the information in the finder and my dioptries fixed on the little wheel beside it I don't even need my specs. Yet ... I'm using the touch screen more and more often because it's convenient, fast and easy to use.
Here are some photos I posted which show why I like it:

Especially the last series of night photos (all handheld) show what this small camera can do.
And not to forget the many special features this camera offers, including in-camera double exposures:
Your self portrait.

Opinions are one thing, I rely on facts (experiences by people who use the camera).
Here's a stacked macro shot I took (window-sill in living-room, no flash)
