| Full-HD Movie Recording in AVCHD: With the
GH1, shooting incredible photos is only part of the fun. You can
also shoot beautiful, richly detailed movies in full-HD (1920 x
1080) at 24 fps, or smooth HD (1280 x 720) movies at 60 fps in
AVCHD (MPEG-4/H.264) with a continuous auto focus function. |
| High-Performance Kit Lens: The GH1 kit is
proudly equipped with the LUMIX G VARIO HD 14-140mm / F4.0-5.8
ASPH. / MEGA O.I.S. lens. This compact lens boasts a focal length
of 28-280mm [35mm camera equivalent] and supports a continuous
auto focus function that works for both photos and movies. |
| The GH1's advanced kit lens also
incorporates MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer) that helps
eliminate blurring from hand-shake. |
| Enjoy the Freedom of Manual Settings in
Creative Movie Mode: The GH1 gives you more creative freedom. It
lets you adjust the shutter speed and aperture any way you like
when shooting movies. This gives you a wider range of expressive
possibilities to explore in your movie making. |
| An Audio Performance that Adds to Your HD
Movies: Just set the GH1 to iA mode, aim and shoot. The iA does
all the rest. It automatically determines the most suitable Scene
mode and helps correct blurring, focus and brightness problems for
bright, sharply focused HD movies. |
| The Advanced iA Mode Uses Face Recognition
to Remember Individual Faces: The GH1 features an enhanced version
of LUMIX's clever iA mode that includes Face Recognition, a
function that "remembers" registered faces. |
| Full-time Live View and Live View Finder: On
the GH1, both the LCD and the Live View Finder boast true
Full-time Live View capability. Live View lets you see - before
you shoot - how changing the shutter speed or aperture will affect
the shot. |
| Newly Developed 12.1-Megapixel Live MOS
Sensor: The GH1's 4/3-type Live MOS sensor with 12.1 megapixels
gives you the best of both worlds: the superior image quality and
the lower power consumption. It also adds a high-speed readout for
recording HD movies. |
| You can record images with a 4:3, 3:2 or
16:9 aspect ratio. In each, you get the same angle of view and
same outstanding image quality. |
| The High-Speed, High-Performance Venus
Engine HD: The Venus Engine HD incorporates two CPUs. This not
only boosts image processing speed, it also helps achieve an
exceptional noise-reduction performance. The Venus Engine HD
features HDMI output. |
| Easily View Photos and Movies on an HDTV:
Just connect the GH1 to an HDTV and you're ready to view your
photos and movies in beautiful high-definition. If your TV is HDMI
compatible, a single HDMI mini cable (optional) is all you need. |
