The editors didn't like
Dynamic range is poor and image noise at ISO settings above 800 is seriously intrusive. We noticed that Olympus seem to do better in controlling noise from the same sensor. We have a reservation about the price. A comparable Olympus E-510 costs $1500.

The DMC-L10K’s image quality and Leica lens are impressive, but its overall performance leaves you feeling like the camera is a generation or two behind. If the DMC-L10K were priced to compete with sub-$1,000 entry-level DSLRs, it would be a mor...
Full time live-view. High-quality lens with optical stabilization.
Subpar image-quality. Not much headroom in RAW captures. Very pricey.
Panasonics Lumix DMC-L10 packs 10-megapixels, a decent lens (in the kit version), and a detachable live-view viewfinder. Still, it doesnt exactly accomplish all this cheaply, and given the cameras so-so image quality, its difficult to justify the...
