Product Description

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS10 is a member of the acclaimed Lumix ZS-Series of digital cameras that has won worldwide popularity for its versatile lens from ultra wide-angle to long zoom. The Lumix ZS10 continues its versatility with a 24mm ultra-wide-angle and powerful 16x optical zoom LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens–and it features full-High Definition 1920×1080 video recording capability, a newly-adopted large 3.0-inch, 460,000-dot Smart Touch Intelligent LCD–which allows for Touch Zoom, Touch Auto Focus (AF), Touch Shutter, and Touch Playback. The Lumix ZS10 also features a built-in GPS (Global Positioning System) function allowing geotagged images to be pinpointed via online maps and easily shared with friends and families.

The Panasonic Lumix ZS10 also features the new Panasonic 3D Photo mode, which produces a realistic 3D photo by taking 20 consecutive photos and overlaying the two best images which provide a 3D image that can then be played on a Panasonic VIERA 3D HDTV. The format of the 3D image is compatible with MPO, and can also be played back on other MPO-compatible equipment such as a televisions, digital photo frame and printers. Panasonic also adds the Lumix Image Uploader for seamless and instant sharing via Facebook (for digital photos) or YouTube (for videos). Users can checkmark the photo or video files they want to share, connect it to a PC with the included USB cable or by inserting the SD memory card directly into the PC’s SD card slot, and then the uploading automatically launches with an easy-to-follow menu option.

Customer Reviews

First Panasonic Owned, Coming From Canon, March 27, 2011 – By Elliott

I am an ametour user and mainly bought this camera because of the features and the zoom (16x). I use cameras mainly for concerts and have one coming up in 2 weeks so will revisit this review at that time. That being said, I have tested this out mainly indoors and a few outdoors and it takes really decent pictures for what I need it for. I love how I can put it to touch screen and touch the focus of the picture on screen and have it snap a quick picture. The focus/shutter time is fast so you don’t miss your shot. I have played around with the GPS a bit but only indoors so it just brought up the county I live in. I mainly bought the camera with GPS for when we go to Hawaii in a few months. It will be a nice feature so as I go back through the photos at a later date I will know where I was. I love how you can enter your pet or child’s name and date of birth and it tags the photos for you with name and exact age. This is the first Panasonic I have ever bought and so far I’m pretty happy with it. I am coming from a Canon SD4500 in which the zoom and battery life suck. A dead battery after 83 pictures and 2 hours is not acceptable to me no matter what setting you have it on (which I had it on auto). So far on this camera the zoom is a 10!! I love being able to see items clearly that are pretty far away!! I can’t yet rate the battery fairly as I haven’t really tested the camera out to the fullest. I will udate this review in a few weeks after using it at the concert. I have bought an extra battery just in case it is needed, but I’m hoping it’s not.
