Panasonic DMC G10 and G2 Micro Four Thirds cameras debut

It’s a boring Sunday here in the gadget world, so that’s where Panasonic brightens up your Sunday morning/afternoon. While Panasonic isn’t the brand name of cameras, they definitely have cameras that people can feel comfortable with. First up, the Lumix DMC-G2, which kinda looks like the G1, and includes a touchpanel to take pictures, a 12.1 megapixel Live MOS sensor, Venus Engine HD II technology, 3-inch rear LCD and a 720p (AVCHD Lite) movie mode. Second is the DMC-G10, which is purportedly, supposedly, optimistically the “world’s lightest” interchangeable lens camera with a viewfinder. It has the same 12.1 megapixel sensor and Venus Engine HD II as the G2, but lacks the tilt / swivel / touch LCD panel that the G2 has. Pricing and release dates are in the dark for these guys, but they do support the expensive SDXC memory cards. Yeah!
