No, it looks a bit like a Leica M-series. Strange coincidence, eh?
The referenced article doesn't actually seem to mention whether the
lens is interchangeable, which seems like a pretty big oversight!
Second text paragraph reads:
"Having announced our entry to the digital SLR market in 2005, Panasonic
is pleased to update you on the development of the state-of-the-art Lumix
DMC-L1 - our first interchangeable-lens digital SLR camera, distinguished
from conventional digital SLRs by combining the operating feel of an
analogue camera with innovative features unique to digital cameras."
Does the camera use a mirror for reflex, or is the reflex electronic?
It uses the mirror from the Olympus E-330. In fact, it is almost
entirely identical to an Olympus E-330, but clothed in a differently
shaped body. The image processing algorithms are the only substantial
difference. It will be interesting to see if the Panasonic firmware
will correct any rectilinear distortion from the lens in use, as
happens with the Olympus E-1.
The sensor is identical to that in the E330. The sensor is a
Panasonic design, but the manufacture is contracted out.
The OIS feature of the Leica lens will work on Olympus 4/3 SLRs, but
only in Mode 1, always on.
