Panasonic Announces Pricing For Lumix G2 And G10 Cameras

You might remember the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G2 and DMC-G10 Micro Four Thirds cameras that were officially unveiled by Panasonic last month. The pricing for these cameras wasn’t available back then, but Panasonic has lifted the lid on that too.

According to the press release, the DMC-G2 will be priced at $799.95 and will come bundled with a kit lens. The DMC-G2 offers a 3-inch rotatable touchscreen display, and has a similar form factor with its predecessor, the G1. The G2 is actually quite similar to the G10 in many aspects, and will boast the same 12-megapixel sensor, 720p video recording capabilities, as well as the 14-42mm kit lens. Thanks to it being a touchscreen, it’ll offer the popular feature of focusing on the subject by touching the screen. It can also claim to be the first interchangeable lens system camera with a twistable touchscreen that can be used to control the camera.

The DMC-G10 will be going for $599.95 with the same kit lens and sports a 12-megapixel sensor, and a Micro Four Thirds sensor. Bundled together with the camera is the LUMIX G VARIO 14-42mm/F3.5-5.6 ASPH/MEGA O.I.S lens. It’ll be able to shoot 1280 x 720 HD video as well.
