Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 12.1MP Digital SLR Camera with Lumix G Vario 14-45 mm f/3.5-5.6 ASPH Mega OIS Lens
Jan 29th
The DMC-G1 is a digital interchangeable lens camera with an incredibly small body. This compact size was achieved by using a mount system that complies with the new Micro Four Thirds System standard, which has been applied for the first time in the world in the DMC-G1*, together with an innovative mirror-less structure in a digital interchangeable lens camera. By combining the remarkably compact body with the compact, lightweight LUMIX G lens and its advanced functions, which are as easy to use as those on a digital compact camera, the super-mobile DMC-G1 shatters the old notion that all digital SLRs are bulky, heavy and hard to use. This, plus the superior image quality made possible by a 4/3-type 12.1-megapixel Live MOS sensor, draws a clear line between the DMC-G1 and all conventional digital SLR cameras. More >
