Stacey,
Both the TZ5 and A650is are good cameras, and your choice should depend on what you will be using it for. Most of the compact digitals are going to have some lag due to the auto focus feature. This lag will be small in natural sun light but greater inside under low light. Usually the more pixels the more lag.
The pixel count will not necessarily give you better pictures. If this is your first digital camera it might be worth while to look at the PowerShot A720. It costs less than the A650 and the picture quality is excellent.
You can go to this site and compare picture quality of many brands of cameras. http://www.imaging-resource.com/IMCOMP/COMPS01.HTM Unfortunately the TZ5 is not one of the selections.
After you select the cameras scroll down to the pictures "still-life 200" and click on the image a couple of times to enlarge the photograph and you can compare the results.
