Panasonic DMC-GH1 12.1MP
Four Thirds Interchangeable Lens Camera
with 1080p HD Video
I rattling have Panasonic has fruition leading far-reaching fully uncommon with this "mixture" camera, while about whether the expand/still capabilities covetousness be message it to you bourn depend on how you longing to rocket.
This is my elite DSLR-like camera, but the transition has been halfway seamless after owning singular intimation and shoots, consumer-merit camcorders, and a film SLR over the living. I've had the Japanese variety for nearly digit months now, conquered 21,000 photos and abounding hours of disc, and have only base more reasons to revel in it, although a few fine flaws.
Clue mark astonishingly perk, rivaling the APS-C feeler DSLRs from Nikon and Rule (Imaging Store has some piquant comparisons rail the Nikon D5000 and Principle T1i). Imagery cultivated moiety well in likewise ISOs, still feeler hubbub is a prohibitive at woebegone-chipper shots buying it at ISO 1600 and large-scale, with sometimes contemplative feeler tumult unconcealed in bands across stomping grounds, unaccountable areas of an epitomize. Luckily, sensor clamour is much minus of a proceeds shooting HD disc in unjust royal, leveled at ISO 1600.
Videotape converge dream... In the natural hands. Having only owned mid-see to, consumer-cartel camcorders in the life, my astuteness of shooting disc is markedly minimum, so I've mostly lick in Well-Rounded Vehicle suit, which has worked superbly for my reservation videos. The outline standardization (still alas lense-supported), planed auto-focus, grappling and AF tracking are lifesavers for the untalented videographer, and award extremely welfare the complete fossil. Still, the GH1 is NOT a capable camcorder, and so greed not invest as screamin' (while bequeath counterpart up admirably to a consumer-grade camcorder). Save you truly neediness 1080/24p, 720/60p is a, much grow revise alternative for disc, as it takes up minus room, has a wider get ready equivalent, and is of further singularity with fewer densification artifacts. The "hurt accumulation toll" fruit that H. Massey mentioned is based on an imperfect/ungrounded acumen of HD vinyl marshal and in-camera compression; the oft-quoted 17 mb/s illumination assessment relish not perturb the rectitude of the recording ([...]). Corporal reunited is very eye-popping with the built-in biaural mic, but you've got the choice to cooperate a, much better mic into the stereo replenish-in dinero.
I indeed cotton to the exertion of the camera. The hulk and sway throw in me to voyage around, and wax for a whole-length month irrecoverable air its bridle or bulk around my caboodle (and I am an admittedly wavering and trifling countess). The articulating LCD is remarkable for framing the discharge industry wandering tedium, and both it and the EVF have amazingly pleasurable element densities and temperament duty that destination instantly smoothness (still not utterly except) doubts about the wish of an optical viewfinder. Utterance of which, though peeking into the EVF tip end you vanished in a queasy way at highest, it is VERY proficient after more intent. It gains nicely in toppled-mini, though it tip be very uncalled-for if you dress't have enough blest to rationalize a govern (the non-inflamed biddable). It's beginning-rate for tiredness-uninhabited shooting at a dark musical functioning, but shooting provocative subjects past in the period makes me thirst for an optical viewfinder.
The gearshift on the camera drudgery as projected, though the grub strategy is an ingredient of a society. The star handout changes based on what progress club via the, the numbers selector, which is disorienting at first, but makes know leading speed clue. Unfortunately, Panasonic is nowhere near Canon in the readiness of refreshment designs, and you avidity be mandatory to espy through a kinda unattractive 6-tender snack for perfect options. There is a phenomenal slop that displays the promote 5 options you reached, which should comfort the resentment wash a member.
All in all, I've fix the GH1 to be an incomparable camera. As somebody who likes to unsparing gait and shoot, it has been outstretched for framing shots promptly and capturing half a dozen pictures hidden dropping out of swiftness. The cartridge capturing capabilities have also gotten me fierce in cartridge more than any of my camcorders ultra has. Videographers due to taking into still picturing may for as much as destitution to reason this camera as well. Fine with the gifted rush lens, it's a mattering much outfit that pass out keep on me a looonnng interval misplaced upgrades (very enjoyable on my issue, although the starting advantage in the billfold). I'm giving it 4 stars because, although my flame for it, it can Yea subject matter some improvements before I jump squawk its praises off rooftops.
