Panasonic introduces LUMIX DMC-GF1 and two new lenses


Panasonic announced the release of a new addition to the LUMIX G family: the DMC-GF1. The 12-megapixel model is the world’s smallest and lightest system digital camera with a built-in flash. A follower in the LUMIX G series, known for producing “DSLR-like” models at the sizes of pocket cameras, it comes with seven preset functions, collectively known as the “My Color” mode. These presets include Expressive, Retro, Pure, Elegant, Monochrome, Dynamic Art, Silhouette and Custom.

What is especially powerful about this camera is its video capability. It can shoot 1280 x 720 HD video in AVCHD Lite and HD Motion JPEGs at a 1280 x 720 resolution. Other available video recording formats include QVGA, VGA and WVGA. It is also built with a 3-inch LCD screen with a 460,000-dot resolution, an internal Dust Reduction system and a Live MOS Sensor, which separates chromatic noise from luminance noise, applying the optimal noise reduction to each and capturing crisp images even when shooting at high ISO levels.

The DMC-GF1 is due to be released in early October, with a starting price of $899.95.
