Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 (black)

THE GOOD: Interchangeable lenses; fast performance; excellent photo quality; flip-and-twist LCD. THE BAD: Accident-prone jog dial; some restrictive feature implementations; no movie capture. THE BOTTOM LINE: The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 is a camera that people will either love for its speed, photo quality, and interchangeable-lens flexibility or hate for its large-ish size, electronic viewfinder,...

Camera Labs – Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 review

As the debut model of a brand new standard, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 is a rare, exciting and brave camera – and one which fortunately succeeds in many of its goals. The 100% Live View system with flexible screen and detailed viewfinder are a joy to compose with, the controls and handling quick and easy, while the low size and weight ensure it never becomes a burden. And while the choice of...

Panasonic Lumix G1 review

The Panasonic LUMIX G1 is a Micro FourThirds camera. Meaning; a DSLR camera without a mirror. And since this is not possible for a DSLR, it should therefore be considered a system camera. From a technical viewpoint, it is a system that tickles the imagination while it becomes possible to develop extremely compact cameras that still offer the possibility of exchangeable lenses. And in addition,...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 Review

Is it a compact camera? Is it a DSLR? No, its the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 "digital interchangeable lens camera". Panasonic have quickly brought to market the World's first Micro Four Thirds camera, which aims to marry the Live View experience of a point-and-shoot compact with the image quality and format of a DSLR, all in a compact package that sits somewhere between the two. Mark Goldstein...

Panasonic G1 Review

We've completed our full review of the Panasonic DMC-G1 Micro Four Thirds camera, and we're happy to say that our early impressions were borne out by our subsequent tests of the production model. Our early impressions of the Panasonic G1 were quite positive, and subsequent in-depth testing of a full production sample confirmed that it's an excellent little camera. While it can't quite compete at...

DCRP Review: Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 is the smallest interchangeable lens camera in the world. It may be the first of a totally new design of cameras (Micro FourThirds), but you'd never know it. Panasonic has done a superb job with the G1 in nearly all respects. It produces very good quality photos, offers an unmatched live view shooting experience, and has a nice collection of both automatic and manual...

Panasonic Lumix G1 Digital Camera Review

Panasonic is first out of the gate with a product based on the Micro Four Thirds format, the intriguing Lumix G1. This 12-megapixel camera just started shipping, priced at $800 with a 14-45mm lens (equivalent to 28-90mm on a 35mm camera). It became clear a few months ago, when we shot with a pre-production G1 at the Photokina trade show, that Panasonic had indeed cleared the most important hurdle...
