If you were planning to buy a compact camera with almost every latest feature on the planet built into it, your wish would just come true in the coming March with the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS10 digital camera. Panasonic has always pulled the right socks with their Lumix series of cameras. All of the Lumix ZS series have given the photo enthusiasts , the best optical zoom possible in the most compact body possible.
This new camera has a versatile lens that can shoot ultra wide-angle to long zoom shots. The total optical zoom range of the camera is 16x and the lens has 24mm wide angle as well. The speculative price for this camera is 400$ and I would say its a steal at this price. But the price would actually become clear when the camera is finally launched in March.
The features that make this camera all the more interesting are a 3-inch rear LCD that allows touch zoom, touch autofocus, touch shutter, and touch playback. It means that a simple touch of the screen would let you do a lot more things for which you had to browse complex menus and buttons earlier.
The camera is also 3D image compatible and it has a 14.1MP resolution. Video recording in 1080p resolution is supported and the camera uses the Panasonic Venus Engine FHD. The cam has integrated GPS for geo tagging images and uses internal data to tag the photos with information on landmarks and the city or town the photo was taken in.
