Panasonic DMC-LZ10 Digital Camera

[PMA 2008] I sometimes wish that the pace of consumer electronics would move slower when it comes to new releases as the bank account can only take so much damage before it requires a quick trip to the resuscitator. Having said that, Panasonic’s new DMC-LZ10 digital camera is the latest in the Lumix LZ Series that boasts a couple of key improvements over last year’s DMC-LZ7 – Leica DC VARIO-ELMAR lenses and wide-angle shooting. As for the rest of the specifications, kindly redirect your eyeballs downwards…

  • Manual controls
  • AA battery operation
  • 2.5″ LCD display
  • 10.1 megapixel count
  • 5x optical zoom
  • MEGA O.I.S.
  • Intelligent ISO
  • Intelligent Scene Selector
  • Face Detection
  • Quick AF

Available in February, colors of the DMC-LZ10 are pretty draggy though – you only get black and silver to play with. Does $249.95 sound like a fair price to you?
