The Panasonic TZ3 camera can be bought for cheap these days. It's a very good little camera. Only problem is, buying the camera in 2020 will almost certainly be in a used condition. That goes for the battery too. It will more than likely be the original, and it will be just as old as the camera itself. And that is rather old. This means its quite likely that it won't be able to hold a very good charge. This is not always the case though, as I talk about below.

There are non-original replacements out there for sale, but they are a bit hit and miss. And they don't cost much less than what it would be to actually buy a used TZ3 on eBay that comes with an original Panasonic battery. I mean, I bought a Panasonic TZ3 on eBay for £12. Thankfully for me the original battery that it came with still holds an excellent charge considering how old it is.
So don't completely write-off just buying a used TZ3. Sometimes you can get lucky and come across one that comes with a good original battery. Do be sure to ask the seller that question though (does the battery hold a good charge) before bidding / buying to make sure.
