FZ10 & LC1

[michael_a._shapiro]

I understand that Panasonic is coming out with a new digital

camera, but I have heard two different model numbers and

descriptions. Are there two different cameras? When will it or

each be out?

Thanks.

The FZ10 is out now in the U.S. and you can find reviews on it at

www.dpreview.com and www.dcresource.com and www.steves-digicams.com.

 

The DMC-LC1 is a different camera with different features and is slated to be released in the spring of 2004.

 

According to a blurb at Steve's Digicams site:

 

 

LetsGoDigital Uncovers New Panasonic Lumix Cameras

 

Our friends over at LetsGoDigital.org have uncovered a host of new Panasonic Lumix digital cameras. The upcoming DMC-LC1, a 5-megapixel camera with wide 28-90mm Leica lens and very definite Leica body styling like their M series 35mm rangefinder cameras of the past. Major features are lens-mounted rings for both zoom and focus as well as aperture and a top mounted shutter speed dial. Due for delivery in spring of 2004.

 

The new Lumix DMC-FZ10 which is a 4-megapixel camera with a Leica 12x superzoom lens with the MEGA O.I.S. image stabilization system. The design is similar to the existing DMC-FZ1 model which is very compact for a camera with this long of a focal length lens. Next up are the Lumix DMC-FX5 and DMC-FX1 compact 4-megapixel and 3-megapixel cameras with 3x optical zooms that also employ the MEGA O.I.S.
