"Panasonic has announced a new addition to its Lumix camera line with a compact body and fixed lens that's targeted at photographers instead of creators making video content. The Lumix L10 is available for preorder today with a black or silver finish for $1,499.99. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Lumix brand, the L10 will also be available in a titanium gold finish with matching accessories and software for $1,599.99, but only in limited numbers and primarily through Panasonic's online store."
"Beneath its retro-inspired exterior is a 20.4MP back-illuminated CMOS sensor that's also found in the Lumix GH7. However, while the GH7 is a video powerhouse, that's not what the new L10 is designed for. It can still capture 4K videos at up to 120fps to several formats, including Panasonic's MP4 Lite, but its compact size limits its heat dissipation capabilities which in turn limits recording length."
"The camera's 24-75mm Leica lens has an aperture range of f/1.7 to f/2.8 that's adjustable through a lens ring while macro shooting capabilities allow autofocus to capture a subject as close as 3cm away. The L10's phase hybrid focus system uses 779 autofocus points spread across the frame to track moving subjects using an AI-based real-time recognition system capable of locking onto eyes, faces, bodies, animals, or vehicles."
"On the back of the L10 you'll find an articulated 1.84-million-dot screen as well as a 2.36-million-dot OLED viewfinder. There's also a dedicated button for loading and applying different types of color effects and simulated film styles which can be customized using Panasonic's Lumix Lab mobile app and uploaded to the camera."
The Lumix L10 is a compact fixed-lens camera aimed at photographers rather than video creators. It is available for preorder in black or silver for $1,499.99, with a limited 25th-anniversary titanium gold version for $1,599.99 through Panasonic’s online store. The camera weighs 508 grams and uses a magnesium alloy front case with a textured, saffiano-leather-like exterior. It includes a 20.4MP back-illuminated CMOS sensor and a 24-75mm Leica lens with an f/1.7 to f/2.8 aperture range. Autofocus uses a phase hybrid system with 779 points and AI recognition for eyes, faces, bodies, animals, and vehicles. It offers up to 30fps electronic shutter or 11fps mechanical shutter, plus an articulated 1.84M-dot screen, a 2.36M-dot OLED viewfinder, and customizable color and film-style effects via a mobile app.
