Panasonic Lumix DMC-G10 is an upcoming 12.1 MP Live MOS Interchangeable Lens Camera with 14-42mm Lumix G Vario f/3.5-5.6 MEGA OIS Lens. It can record High Definition (HD) video in addition to high-quality still images, joins the Lumix DMC-G2 as part of the Panasonic Lumix G Series. People will be very happy with such a camera.
The Lumix G10, with its incredible compact body and portable design, uses a mirrorless structure as part the Micro Four Thirds System standard, eliminating a number of components that are found in a conventional interchangeable lens camera, including the mirror box and optical viewfinder unit. This innovative structure allows for the Lumix G10 to be the world’s lightest system camera in a compact digital camera design that is a desired feature for new users.
What’s more, the 12.1-megapixel Live MOS sensor and the new Venus Engine HD II help to separate chromatic noise from luminance noise and apply the optimal noise reduction to each, so users can capture clear and beautiful images even when shooting at high ISO sensitivity levels. So I think you guys will love this Panasonic SLR camera too.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G10 SLR camera comes with some very attractive features, let’s have a look.
