UPDATE: This is not a 4/3 or m4/3 rumor but I thought I should post that because at least it is interesting to see that Leica and Panasonic are still working together. To bad Leica didn’t choose to join the MicroFourThirds system.
Soon Leica will launch the new C-Lux 20 (the Leica C-Lux 3 successor). It will be the “copy” of the Panasonic TZ10-ZS7
camera.

What has this got to do with 4/3?
I don’t know why Leica opt for reproduction of TZ10-ZS7 instead of TZ7-ZS3, which actually produced better image (as tested by imaging resource).
Noting against re-posting information, but please take the time to read carefully and gather all info you can. According to several posts at Leica Rumors, the new camera’s designation will not be ‘C-Lux 10’ as you stated, but rather either ‘C-Lux 20’ (which LR were told from a source) or ‘V-Lux 20’ (what the EXIF-data suggests in the images on the new Leica travel minisite).
Apart from that, you guys are doing a great job here 🙂
Hi Efix! Had a lapsus…. I was thinking on the Panasonic TZ10 🙂
If the reflected image in the picture is the new Leica camera then because of both its size and shape it definitely is not a copy of the TZ10-ZS7. Given the height of the model it is more likely to be the Leica version of the new LX4 (?) or a new ZS model (?) with a inbody EVF with receeding lens looking like that of the TZs and no reason they could not add GPS to the mix. Note there would be no reason to increase height of the camera other than to include some type of a viewfinder.
