The Lumix L10 is Panasonic’s second ever DSLR and from the outside greatly resembles the company’s super-zooms. Inside though it's a full DSLR, based on the Four Thirds standard and as such can take any Four Thirds lens, including two new Leica models with built-in optical stabilisation. The L10 sports a 10.1 Megapixel sensor with Live View facilities and a flip-out 2.5in monitor. There’s also a Super Sonic Wave Filter to combat dust. See our Panasonic Lumix DMC-L10 review for full details.

Sensor: 7.5 Mpixel MOS / 17.3x13mm
Image size: 3136 x 2352 pixels / 4:3
Lens mount: FourThirds
(x2 coverage)
Screen: 2.5in, 207K pixels

Panasonic’s first digital SLR is a unique proposition: it takes the 7.5 Megapixel sensor, effective anti-dust and Live View features of the Olympus E330 and packages them in a body with retro styling and analogue controls. Completing the picture is a quality Leica zoom lens with optical stabilisation. It’s an impressive debut, but how does it compare to the latest 10 Megapixel models? Find out in our L1 review and video tour. Also see our Leica 14-50mm lens review and video tour.
