GH1 Body for Creative Video

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1K body is a 12.1 megapixel Micro Four Thirds camera aimed at enthusiasts who want full manual control over movie recording. It offers full-time Live View through a free-angle 3.0 inch LCD and an electronic viewfinder for precise composition before shooting. The new 14.0 total megapixel Live MOS sensor balances image quality with lower power consumption. Its interchangeable lens system supports continuous auto focus during both photo and video capture.

1080 24p and 720 60p Recording

The camera records full-HD 1920 x 1080 at 24 frames per second and smooth HD 1280 x 720 at 60 frames per second in AVCHD format. Creative Movie Mode lets you adjust shutter speed and aperture manually while filming for expressive depth of field. Continuous auto focus tracks subjects during movie recording without losing focus. ISO sensitivity and RAW plus JPEG still capture provide flexibility for mixed shooting workflows. Storage uses SD and SDHC memory cards for ample capacity.

Upgrade from Fixed-Lens Compacts

This body replaces compact cameras that lack interchangeable lenses and full manual video control. The jump is worth it when you need lens versatility for different perspectives or shallow depth of field for cinematic look. It is not for buyers who require higher resolution stills beyond 12.1 megapixels or faster frame rates than 60p at 720p. The kit lens enables continuous auto focus that fixed-lens models often cannot sustain during video.

Questions about this item

Will the 12.1-megapixel Live MOS sensor work with my existing Micro Four Thirds lenses?

The 12.1-megapixel Live MOS sensor uses the Micro Four Thirds mount, so it accepts all existing Micro Four Thirds lenses without an adapter.

How can I confirm the camera records full-HD video at 24 frames per second after setup?

Set the mode dial to Creative Movie Mode, select AVCHD 1920 x 1080 at 24 fps, record a clip, then play it back on the 3.0-inch LCD or an HDTV via AV cable to verify the resolution and frame rate.

Does the box include an SD card for storing 1920 x 1080 AVCHD footage?

The box includes a battery pack, charger, AC cable, DC cable, body cap, AV cable, USB cable, shoulder strap and CD-ROM; an SD or SDHC memory card must be purchased separately.
