Nauticam NA-L10 Underwater Housing
For the Panasonic Lumix L10
The NA-L10 takes Panasonic's premium large-sensor compact underwater — a Four Thirds sensor behind a fast Leica 24-75mm-equivalent zoom, with strong 5.6K/4K video — in a compact aluminium housing. Built on Nauticam's N50 port system, it accepts a range of wet optics for wide-angle and macro and ships with vacuum and leak monitoring as standard.
Consider the NA-L10 if you:
- Want a premium large-sensor (Four Thirds) compact — fast Leica 24-75mm-equivalent f/1.7-2.8 zoom
- Want strong video — 5.6K and DCI 4K up to 120p, with V-Log — in a small package
- Want N50 wet-optic versatility — WWL wide-angle plus CMC / MFO macro on one dive
- Need reliable safety monitoring for demanding dives

New to the L10? Here's the context. Already know it well — skip to the housing below.
The Lumix L10 is a premium fixed-lens compact with a 20.4MP Multi-Aspect BSI CMOS Four Thirds sensor and a Leica-designed 24-75mm-equivalent f/1.7-2.8 zoom. The large sensor and flexible zoom make it a compelling underwater choice, and unlike a typical compact it has both a viewfinder and a rear monitor with plenty of direct controls, giving it a more mirrorless feel. It records up to 5.6K with reliable optical stabilisation, and the Multi-Aspect sensor enables open-gate recording across aspect ratios. AI-based subject detection locks onto eyes, faces, pets and vehicles.

The Housing
Lens compatibility and the N50 port system
The NA-L10 uses Nauticam's N50 port system, which accepts many of Nauticam's premium water-contact optics. A standard port covers the native 24-75mm zoom, while short bayonet ports pair with the WWL-1B and WWL-C for wide-angle coverage up to 130°, and the standard port plus an M67 flip-diopter holder takes the MFO-1, CMC-1 and CMC-2 macro optics — so wide-angle and macro are both available across your dives.
Mission Control: every control within reach
In true Nauticam fashion, essential controls sit as close to the (optional) handles as possible — positioned where they're needed rather than mirroring the camera's buttons. Dials carry rubberised finger grooves and the levers are tuned for smooth operation. A rotary housing lock makes battery and media changes quick.
Flash triggering
Optical flash triggering is available using the 26309 Mini Flash Trigger (shared with the GH5/G9/S1R/S1H/GH6 housings; from SN A573875), through the housing's fiber-optic bulkheads.
Vacuum check and leak detection — standard
Nauticam's vacuum check and leak detection electronics ship with the NA-L10 as standard. Combined with the optional 25625 M16 Vacuum Valve II, the system continuously reports the housing's watertight, safe-to-dive status through a color-coded LED: solid vacuum, or vacuum loss. Leak detection runs on the same circuit, so any water intrusion triggers an audible and visual alarm.
The system is temperature-compensated, so it won't throw false alarms from a change in water temperature or from the camera heating up on an action-packed dive.
