The gadget manufacturing honcho may have come up with a couple of Micro Four Third cameras which was released last year, the critics still were not content regarding the features and applications of the cameras. Panasonic readily thought of coming up with another camera under the same category (Micro Four Thirds) in order to prove a point to the tech/gadget world. And this time they didn’t disappoint. The newly launched Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 has seemingly lurked the camera aficionados to get a hand-on experience of what is stated to be one of the most ambitious venture of Panasonic. Hereby we will provide you with a hands on review of GF1, delving deep into the features, the pros and cons of the newly released camera.

Although GF1′S predecessors i.e. the G1 and GH1 didn’t quite live up to their expectations, the newly released model provides you with certain features that will certainly enthrall any camera monger. Pretty short sized GFI (much like that of a digi-cam) allows the users to get a full grip of the device on their palm. The advantage that the device has over other similar sized digi-cams is that GF1 is its constant lens design. The lens design enables the users to click photos according to their compatibility. Moreover, GF1 provides a better light sensitivity than other available digi-cams. GF1 also covers up the biggest glitch that its predecessor G1 had i.e. the absence of the movie mode. Although GH1 had a better movie mode than GF1 still the 720p movie mode is good enough for the commoners.

The 3 inch LCD screen has a better display than that of its other models and the 12.1 megapixel sensor is definitely a treat for the eye. The users can swindle between the still mode and the movie mode by shuffling through the record button. Panasonic, which is regarded as the first manufacturer of the Micro Four Thirds camera, the device manufacturing honcho now enlists its name as to provide the smallest camera of its kind. The sleek, compact and lightweight device is quite user friendly and enthralls the consumers with its beautiful outlook and a seemingly tight grip that readily fits into your palm. The 3 inch LCD provides the users with a sharp and a well balanced display. Moreover, the buttons are not cluttered and hence it is easy to use as the buttons are quite widely spread.

The image quality of GF1 betters than that of its predecessor G1 which was released last year. The responsive shutter button comes as an extra bonus for the newly released Lumix DMC-GF1. The flash modes that have been incorporated in this relatively sleek device includes various modes which are varied in their features, thereby providing the users with a wide range of options. The faster autofocus of the device makes it a haven for the journalists. The presence of Micro Four Thirds camera ensures perfect imaging of the pictures with an ISO of up to 1600. Overall a great camera to flaunt which will provide you with all the necessary features. For more information please click here
