Longer stills battery life

Cameras with longer battery life can take more photos before exhausting their batteries.

Review Excerpt

We haven’t finished our review of the Panasonic DMC-LZ10, but we have extensive sample photos and a hands-on report.
See our Panasonic DMC-LZ10 First Shots

Enthusiast-oriented compact camera body; Good image quality in most situations; Impressive Dual Pixel CMOS AF; Very good overall performance.
Dynamic range and high ISO image quality aren't quite up to par with some of its competition; No 4K video recording; Video features in general are underwhelming; Native EF-M lens selection is limited.
