The German test website Photozone.de has tested an old DSLR camera from Panasonic, the Lumix DMC-L10. This camera is known for its kit lens, the Leica D Vario-Elmar 14-50mm f3.8-5.6 MEGA O.I.S. lens, of very high quality and this high price.

Some key features for the Panasonic Lumix DMC-L10:
-10.1 megapixel CCD sensor
-Leica D Vario-Elmar 14-50mm f3.8-5.6 MEGA O.I.S. kit lens
-2.5″ LCD screen with 270-degree rotation
-Supersonic Wave Filter that removed dust from the sensor

Photozone ends up giving the Panasonic Lumix DMC-L10 camera a pretty good verdict due to the very good quality of the kit lens, good Live View mode, the camera body has good handling and it is able to produce very good pictures. The downsides are the pretty high price compared to other DSLR camera in the same class, the camera does not have built in image stabilization making the lens selection a bit lacking if you need image stabilization and much noise at higher ISO sensitivities.
