Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LX10
MISSISSAUGA, ON (September 19, 2016) – At Photokina 2016, Panasonic Canada proudly introduced the LUMIX DMC-LX10, the ultimate compact camera and latest addition to the popular LX series. The new LUMIX DMC-LX10 boasts the newly developed F1.4 high-speed LEICA DC VARIO-SUMMILUX lens and the large, 1-inch High Sensitivity MOS Sensor with 20.1-megapixel resolution. Its performance has been enhanced by integrating a 4K video recording capability*1 and advanced functions for creative use in a sleek, compact body. The Lumix DMC-LX10 will be available to the Canadian market in November 2016 at an MSRP of $999.99.
The LUMIX DMC-LX10’s LEICA DC VARIO-SUMMILUX lens features a fast F1.4-2.8 aperture (35mm camera equivalent: 24-72mm) with an aperture ring that allows direct, intuitive control to take maximum advantage of this high-speed lens. Stunning macro shots with intricate detail can be taken with a minimum working distance of 3 cm.

The 1-inch MOS Sensor enables high-quality image recording with extraordinary detail. The combination of the High Sensitivity MOS Sensor and a Venus Engine achieves a maximum ISO 12800 high sensitivity recording with picture quality that goes beyond the limits of compact digital cameras. For even faster response and higher mobility, the LUMIX DMC-LX10 boasts a high-speed, high-precision AF with DFD (Depth From Defocus) technology*2, which shortens the focusing time. It calculates the distance to the subject by evaluating 2 images with different sharpness levels at a high 240 fps signal exchange speed. As a result, the LUMIX LX10 achieves an ultrahigh-speed AF of approx. 0.12 sec*3. This benefit increases as the focal length grows. It also offers high-speed burst shooting at 10 fps (AFS) / 6 fps (AFC) to capture fast-moving subjects in crisp focus. Thanks to the touch-control system, users can focus quickly right on the subject and even release the shutter with touch operation to capture fleeting photo opportunities.
