Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX1: full function in miniaturized form

GX1 is truly a jewellery work, but not by technologists, but by marketing specialists. There are no functional innovations in the new Four Thirds system, but the camera is precisely positioned between the existing Lumix system series with precision. Itā€™s a compact, slim camera with the advanced functionality of the system and at the same time with the classic design and control of the first GF cameras.

Compact Cameras

Resolution ā€“ 16MP, Zoom ā€“ 14-42mm, Display ā€“ 3ā€³, F3.5-5.6, O. I.S.

In other words Lumix GF3 turned out to be small, but too simple and ā€œnot seriousā€ serious DMC-G3 is too big in many respects because of built-in viewfinder GX1 is exactly between the first and the second one, getting dimensions of the younger and full functionality of the elder series in the traditional conservative body.

The camera is really not too big: 116Ɨ68Ɨ39 mm and weighs 318 grams, although it could be hard to tell the difference of several millimeters and a few dozen grams. The technological equipment is much more interesting. The maximum sensitivity of the familyā€™s larger 16-megapixel sensor has been increased to 12,800 ISO.

Developer mentions further improvement in focus speed previous Lumix series were already very fast . Have improved over time and interface, traditionally combining the touch screen with a set of classic controls.

A set of software technologies, additional functions and a variety of ā€œcreative filtersā€ is identical to that of the entire new generation of Lumix system.

The basis of the target audience of the new product should be experienced ā€œSLRā€ photographers who are looking for a reliable and functional everyday compact. But we think this camera is much more democratic: advanced features and small size will appeal to every amateur photographer regardless of past experience.
