Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 Digital Camera

Panasonic announced the launch of its first world Micro Four Thirds camera system Lumix DMC-G1 in the United States.

On the basis of the new Micro Four Thirds System standard, the Lumix G1 eliminates the internal mirror that defines the structure of digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras, which reduces the size and weight by almost half. With the mirror-less system, the G1 of the flange of the back, which is the distance between the saddle and the image sensor, has been reduced from 40 mm – as specified in the Four Thirds system – about 20 mm.

It comes in three different colors including black, red and blue, and the suggested price is 799.95 (USD).
