Panasonic G3, a compact with interchangeable lenses ambitious, Full HD video, sensor 16 megapixel compact size and 25%, Panasonic announced a new compact with interchangeable lenses.
It is becoming increasingly difficult to take if the series DMC-G. A pioneer of compact interchangeable lens (the first model of October 2008), she met all the popular features offered by an advanced camera.
With the onslaught of big resolutions
The main novelty of a technical point of view is the arrival of full HD video. The G3 now manages, and 50i (25 frames / second alternate). For those interested in the fluidity of all, it is possible to switch back to standard HD (1280 x 720), this time, a rate of 50p or 50 frames / s. In both cases, your movie will be recorded in AVCHD format. Remember that with the continued development and intelligent tracking of the subject, Panasonic is considered one of the specialists of the video on digicams.
The second change concerns the resolution of the sensor, which jumped from 12 MP to 16 MP. The gain is very theoretical, that kind of increase in accuracy can result in grainy images paradoxically if the surface of the sensor and the electronic processing of light does not follow. Although the G2 had been very successful, nothing can replace a test to judge the real value of the new resolution. Recall that Panasonic uses sensors called "micro four-thirds" broader than just CDs, but narrower than real SLR.
Dimensions reduced by 25%
What about ergonomics? That's where Panasonic seems to have worked more. It must be said that the industry pioneer had been taken aback by the aggressive competition from Sony NEX, lower prices and design both more sexy and less bulky. Whereof the king announces that the compact dimensions of the G3 are 25% smaller than its predecessor.
That's not all! The swivel screen and touch, which makes the originality of the device, sees his slab extend to 7.5 cm (7 cm cons for G2). What a product offering both lighter and more comfortable. The Japanese automaker announced as weighing approximately 330 g (compact nu), and 540 g with the 3x zoom (4-42 mm) supplied with. It remains above the Sony NEX 5, which weighs only 240 g naked.
An interface to monitor
At the outset, the G3 is positioned as an attractive device characteristics, the performance enthusiasts, innovation and compactness will appreciate. The past of the range and know-how from Panasonic advocate of the compact with interchangeable lenses, especially as the range of compatible optical knew expanding, with, in addition to zoom x3 comes as a kit, a large zoom for wildlife photography (45-200 mm) and a very short focal length for portraits on bright background blur (20 mm f / 1.7).
Only problem: the Japanese automaker is still struggling to offer simple interfaces and ergonomic! G2 suffered its rich and complex navigation. Who knows, the G3 will be there just the device able to show that Panasonic knows not only offer excellent products, but are more comforting to use?
The Panasonic G3 released in June in two colors (black and chocolate). Its price is not yet reported. Last year, the G2 was sold at $ 699 with its objective.
