Opting to re-write a page in the compact system camera (CSC) book and return to their GF1 roots, Panasonic has officially unveiled a “Digital Camera for Professionals and Photo Enthusiasts Alike,” the Lumix DMC-GX1.
Most of the rumored features we reported on weeks ago have made their way to the final product. The GX1 packs a 16mp Live MOS imaging sensor, managed by the Venus Engine which can also be found in the GF3. Touting its superb low-light performance, Panasonic focused on “noise reduction at the pixel level,” resulting in “cleaner” images father in the 160 to 12,800 ISO range.
