Description
Panasonic LUMIX DMC-G3 providing the advantages of an interchangeable lens DSLR camera in a point & shoot camera package, light weight and straightforwardness. The decrease in overall
dimensions and weight is comes about by advancements in mirror less viewfinder technology, and big DSLR format image sensors that have become more harmonious with a new breed of Micro Four Thirds (MFT) compact system camera lenses.
This new breed of Compact System Cameras (CSC) provides a lighter weight and smaller package not found in traditional DSLR cameras, providing improved portability and creative power. The DMC-G3 makes a traditional DSLR-type experience available and also includes an external Mode knob for fast access to most often used functions such as Aperture, Program, and Shutter Priority, Manual. Other control settings include a pair of Custom Modes, new Creative Control Function and Scene Modes. The DMC-G3 also features a dedicated video control that can be employed to quickly change to video capture without switching modes.
Similar to most DSLR cameras, the DMC-G3 includes an integrated hot shoe and flash for attaching optional LUMIX flash units. The LUMIX G MFT System includes an available choice of 11 high performing fixed focal length prime and zoom aperture G Vario zoom lenses, including a highly flexible 3D lens with the capacity to shoot both 2D & 3D photos
simultaneously. There are available lens adaptors to mount older version Leica M lenses plus Leica R lenses, and adapters to mount older model full Four Thirds Lumix lenses. A ground-breaking 14-140mm Vario HD G lens captures the best of still and video image photography employing a long 10x zoom and virtually stealth high-speed focusing.
