Panasonic Lumix DMC-G10 Black Micro 4/3 w/ 14-42mm Mega OIS
Double Live View for Easy, Accurate Shooting
Use Full-Time Live View with Both the LCD and the Live View Finder
Full-time Live View works with both the LCD and the Live View Finder. This means that, no matter which way you shoot, you see before you shoot how adjusting the exposure compensation, white balance, aperture and even the shutter speed will affect the image. On the G10, both the LCD and the Live View Finder boast true Full-time Live View capability.
Photos and HD Movies with All the Beauty You Can Imagine
12.1-Megapixel Live MOS Sensor:
Higher Image Quality, Lower Power Consumption
The G10's 4/3-type 12.1-megapixel Live MOS sensor offers the best of both worlds the superior image quality of a CCD sensor, and the lower power consumption of a CMOS sensor. This sensor is also advantageous for photo and movie recording with its high S/N, thanks to an advanced circuit structure that is unaffected by the noise generated in each of the circuits. It results in clear images even when taken at high ISO sensitivity.
Capture Magnificent Shots with a Single Press of the iA Button
With the G10 you're always ready for those sudden, spur-of-the-moment photo opportunities. Just press the dedicated iA button and aim the camera at your subject. The G10 automatically determines the most suitable Scene mode and helps correct blurring, focus, and brightness problems to capture great photos.
- Face Recognition
This function recognizes the faces of up to three people that have been registered in the camera, and displays the names on the LCD. The G10 then optimizes the focus and brightness of the recognized faces and captures them clearly and beautifully. *Turn the Face Recognition item on and register subjects with a full-face portrait on the shooting menu in advance. Refer to the back page for details.
- AF Tracking
Once you focus on your subject, AF Tracking automatically and continuously tracks it and keeps it in focus even if it moves until you press the shutter release.
- Intelligent Exposure
The camera can correct the brightness in parts of the image that are too dark due to insufficient lighting, backlighting or use of the flash.
Intelligent Scene Selector
This function automatically selects the most suitable Scene mode for the situation. Portrait, Night Portrait, Scenery, Night Scenery, Close-up or Sunset.
- Face Detection AF/AE
This function determines if there are any faces in the image and adjusts the focus and exposure to capture them correctly.
- Intelligent ISO Control
If the subject moves as you shoot, it automatically adjusts the ISO sensitivity and shutter speed to help prevent subject blur.
- MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer)
Gyrosensors built into the lens detect hand-shake and an O.I.S. lens shifts to compensate, assisting you in getting clear, beautiful, blurfree photos.
My Color Mode: For More Creative Shooting
While taking photos My Color mode makes it easy to capture creative images. Just aim the camera and select any of seven preset effects, including Silhouette, Expressive, Pure and others, while checking the image in live view. The Custom setting lets you adjust the color, brightness and saturation to your liking, to further expand your creative palette.
Advanced Technology Packs Higher Image Quality into a Smaller, Lighter Body
The High-Speed, High-Performance Venus Engine HD II
The Venus Engine HD II incorporates two CPUs. This not only boosts image processing speed, it also helps achieve an exceptional noise-reduction performance. Also the Venus Engine HD II features a new circuit that makes Intelligent Resolution Technology possible.
Intelligent Resolution Technology
Brings Out the Detail
In iA mode, the G10 automatically identifies parts with outlines, detailed texture areas and soft gradation areas, and optimizes the edge emphasis on the outlines and detailed texture areas while using the Venus Engine noise reduction process to make the soft gradation areas smoother. You can capture stunning images with details you've never seen before in both photo and movie recording.
Dust Reduction System Protects the Image Sensor
If dust or other foreign matter gets inside the camera when you're changing lenses, it could cling to the image sensor and show up as a spot in photos. The G10 helps eliminate this possibility by placing a Supersonic Wave Filter in front of the Live MOS sensor. Vibrating around 50,000 times per second, the filter repels dust and other particles. This keeps the image sensor clean at all times and eliminates the need for cumbersome maintenance procedures.
A Variety of Lenses to Choose From More Creative Tools to Enjoy
LUMXI G VARIO 14-42mm / F3.5-5.6 ASPH. / MEGA O.I.S.
This lens features built-in O.I.S. (optical image stabilizer) and covers a focal distance of 28mm to 84mm (35mm camera equivalent). A multicoating process on each lens minimizes ghosts and flaring, so you capture clear, beautiful images in every shooting situation from simple snapshots to family portraits to scenic landscape shots.
