with an advanced Leica D lens created exclusively for the digital SLR camera.
The L10. Free yourself from the limitations of previous digital SLR cameras –
and get started on a journey to an entirely new world of photographic expression.
Change the Way You See the World
Full-Time Live View Lets You Shoot While Looking at the LCD
On most digital SLR cameras, the LCD monitor is used for viewing images after you've shot them, not as a viewfi nder. The L10 changes all that. Its enhanced Live View function lets you frame and focus your shots right on the large LCD screen, and it lets you see – before you shoot – how adjusting the white balance or exposure compensation will affect the shot. Full-time Live View makes it easy to shoot and easy to capture images just the way you want them. It's one of the innovative functions that distinguish the L10 from every other digital SLR camera.
White balance adjustment:
and magenta/green) of coordinates precisely. Color temperature can also be adjusted in 100K steps.
Exposure compensation: Adjustable from -2 to +2 EV, in 1/3-EV steps. With Live View,
the LCD shows you how changing the exposure compensation will affect the image.
Movable manual focus assist: A part of the image can be enlarged up to 8 times and
displayed on the LCD, giving you an easier, more precise way to check the focus. Using the
cursor button, you can select a different part of the image to enlarge.
Free-Angle 2.5" LCD Gives You More Shooting Freedom
The 207,000-pixel, 2.5" LCD monitor can rotate 180˚ horizontally and tilt 270˚ vertically. This fl exibility combines with full-time Live View to make it much easier to capture the kinds of shots – such as high-angle and low-angle shots – that are diffi cult or impossible with ordinary viewfi nders. Explore a new kind of shooting freedom and creativity. Hold the camera near the ground to capture a perfect eye level shot of a cat or dog. In a crowd of people, hold the camera high overhead and still get a perfectly framed image. Challenge yourself. With the L10, you've got a whole new range of creative possibilities to enjoy.

Face Detection AF/AE for Beautiful Portraits
Whether you're taking a portrait or a snapshot, you want every face to come out beautifully. The L10 makes it easy, thanks to the world’s first Face Detection AF/AE function on a digital SLR camera. The L10 automatically detects when there are faces in the frame, and optimizes the focus and exposure to capture them stunningly. Once the camera spots a face, it will follow it even if the person moves. The L10 can detect up to 15 faces in a frame.
*This function is enabled only when the LEICA D VARIO-ELMAR 14-50 mm / F3.8-5.6 ASPH. / MEGA O.I.S. lens or LEICA D VARIO-ELMAR 14-150 mm / F3.5-5.6 ASPH. / MEGA O.I.S. lens is mounted, as of August 30, 2007.
Intelligent ISO Control Helps Prevent Motion Blur
The L10 is the world's first digital SLR to feature Intelligent ISO Control. This innovative function senses if the subject moves and automatically adjusts the ISO setting and shutter speed accordingly, helping to prevent motion blur. If the subject remains still, the camera shoots at a low ISO setting to give you beautiful, natural-looking images.

Film Mode – To Capture Photos with a Special Mood or Expressiveness
Professional film photographers select different films for their distinctive coloring and contrast, to achieve a desired effect. The L10 gives you this same kind of capability, letting you choose from six color and three monochrome Film modes. Once you select a mode – and before you take the shot – you can see in the LCD what the photo will look like. That's another Live View advantage.

A High-Performance Digital SLR Changes Your View
10.1-Megapixel 4/3-Type Live MOS Sensor
The Rich Tonal Quality of a CCD Sensor Plus the Low Power Consumption of a CMOS Sensor
At the heart of the L10 is a sophisticated 10.1-megapixel 4/3-type Live MOS sensor. Drawing on MOS signal amplification technology but using a simpler structure, this advanced sensor combines the superb image quality of a CCD sensor with the low power consumption of a CMOS sensor. It's molded as a single unit onto a flexible circuit board, so both the number of signal exchanges and the contact resistance from wiring are reduced. Also, an advanced process technology with low­voltage drive reduces heat and noise while improving the image quality provided by the Live View function.
10.1-Megapixel Resolution with Low Noise and High Sensitivity
Thanks to state-of-the art circuit downsizing technology, the light-receiving area of the L10's 10.1-megapixel Live MOS sensor is about the same size as that in a 7.5-megapixel sensor. This helps prevent the noise that would result from reducing the pixel size. Also, the distance from the microlens to the photodiode has been shortened, so light­collecting efficiency is improved. This gives the L10 a level of sensitivity that equals or surpasses
7.5-megapixel sensors.

High-Performance Venus Engine III LSI
High-Resolution Images with Well-Reproduced Color and Low Noise
The Venus Engine III image processor was developed to maximize the performance of the Leica D lens and Live MOS sensor. In addition to helping achieve outstanding resolution, superb color and detailed gradation, this advanced LSI distinguishes chromatic noise from luminance noise and reduces the chromatic noise – one of the main causes of image quality degradation. This helps the L10 deliver the exceptional image rendering performance one expects from a quality SLR camera.
Quick Response and Low Power Consumption
The super-fast Venus Engine III helps give the L10 a quick startup, short shutter interval, and solid consecutive shooting performance. This combines with the Live MOS sensor's low energy consumption to give the L10 a longer battery life. Even with its many advanced functions, the L10 lets you take around 450 shots (CIPA standard) on a single battery charge.
Four Thirds™ Standard: Designed for the Digital Camera
For a digital SLR camera to capture an image accurately, the light must strike the image sensor at a perpendicular angle. But with fi lm camera lenses, light from the image edges enters at a non-perpendicular angle. The result can be inaccurate color­reproduction or dark areas. The L10 uses a lens mount that has about twice the diameter of the image circle. This allows light to strike the sensor at a virtually perpendicular angle, so images are clear and accurate all the way to the edges.

Dust Reduction System Protects the Image Sensor
One risk with conventional digital SLR cameras is that as you change the lens, dust can enter the camera and stick to the image sensor. This would show up as a fl aw in the same location on every photo you shoot. Even worse, the foreign matter could damage the image sensor. The L10 solves this problem with a dust reduction system. A special Supersonic Wave Filter is positioned in front of the image sensor. Every time you turn the camera on, the filter vibrates perpendicularly around 30,000 times a second, creating a wave-like motion across the entire filter to shake loose any dust particles clinging to the filter. This system even shakes loose and captures particles that would not be loosened by the horizontal movement of the image sensors in some cameras.
Functions that Change an Ordinary Shot into a Masterpiece
Exposure Modes and Scene Modes that Fit a Range of Situations
The L10 starts with the common P/A/S/M exposure modes and adds a variety of other modes to give you easy shooting and beautiful results in a wide range of situations. These include an Auto mode in which the camera makes all of the settings, a Custom mode that lets you register up to three sets of settings you use often, and Portrait, Scenery, Macro, Sports, Night Portrait, and SCN (Sunset/Food/Baby/Pet) modes.

Advanced Scene Modes Give You Even More Control
In Portrait, Scenery, Macro, Sports, and Night Portrait modes, you can choose from three or four more specific modes to better match the shooting conditions. This makes it easier to capture the exact image you have in mind.

A non-slip rubber material on the grip makes the L10 easy to hold and handle, and the grip's gentle curvature helps prevent hand fatigue even after extended use. Two control dials are carefully laid out around the grip's upper part to provide even smoother operation. You can quickly set the shutter speed, aperture, and exposure compensation while holding the camera in shooting position.
Auto Power LCD Adjusts the Brightness as the Light Level Changes
The brightness of the L10's LCD automatically adjusts as the ambient light level changes. Even outdoors in bright sunlight, you'll fi nd that the subject in the Live View LCD is clear and easy to see.
1.2x Magnifi er Eyecup for Comfortable Viewing
The L10 comes with a magnifi er eyecup that you can attach to the eyepiece, enlarging the image in the viewfi nder by 1.2 times. This makes it easier to frame the subject and adjust the focus, giving you more convenience in certain shooting situations.
Built-in Flash, and Hot Shoe for External Flash
The L10 is equipped with a built-in multi-functional fl ash that you can adjust from -2 to +2 EV in 1/3-EV steps. The L10 also has a hot shoe for mounting a TTL metering external fl ash (the optional DMW-FL500 or DMW-FL360).
Auto Bracketing Helps You Get the Perfect Exposure
With the Auto Bracket function, the L10 takes three consecutive shots at slightly different exposure settings (adjustable in the range of -2 to +2 EV).
ISO Limit Set Gives You Exactly the Sensitivity You Want
In addition to the seven ISO sensitivity settings (AUTO/100/ 200/400/800/1600/Intelligent ISO), you can use ISO Limit Set to preset exactly the upper ISO limit that you want. This lets you shoot within the sensitivity range that you have set, to refl ect your intentions in particular shooting situations.

A project launched by Panasonic, OurPlace
Publishing Ltd., and UNESCO is aimed at preserving
the images of 380 World Heritage sites in 138
countries, so people generations from now can share
their beauty. All around the world, photographers
are already at work capturing images with LUMIX
digital cameras. Digital photography, with its ability
to reproduce detailed images with true-to-life colors
and no quality degradation, is ideal for preserving
memories. It is also a step toward creating a new
photographic culture for the digital age. There are
some things that humankind must preserve forever.
Panasonic and UNESCO are setting out to do exactly
that - with the OurPlace Project,which is being
managed by OurPlace Publishing Ltd.
