Panasonic has this week unveiled a new Android powered Lumix CM10 camera which is similar in size to a modern smartphone and is equipped with a 4.7 inch screen on the rear providing a display offering 1920 x 1080 pixels.
To run the Android-based operating system Panasonic have equipped the Lumix CM10 camera with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor that is supported by 2GB of RAM and includes 16GB of storage.

The 16GB of on-board storage can be increased further thanks to the inclusion of a microSDXC card reader.
