With the lightweight and compact Panasonic DMC-G81, you can take pictures with outstanding image quality. Its weatherproof housing makes it perfect for outdoor activities.
Panasonic Lumix DMC-G81
The LUMIX DMC-G81 impresses with a variety of advanced technologies and practical features in a robust and compact body.
With the latest cutting-edge technology such as sensor without low-pass filter, Dual I.S. image stabilizer, DFD contrast autofocus, high-resolution 4K photo/video as well as movable touchscreen LCD monitor and large OLED viewfinder, the G81 scores with many detail improvements.
The robust magnesium housing with its numerous direct-access controls is easy to operate and splash-proof and dust-proof.
In addition to 4K videos, the 4K photo function can also record motion sequences and action scenes at 30 fps and 8 MP resolution. With the Post Focus function, the optimally focused photo can be selected from a series of images with different focus. The Focus Stacking function allows to generate a partial or front-to-back sharp photo from multiple frames.
The 5-axis Dual I.S. image stabilizer works even more effectively thanks to a new motion sensor and improved computing algorithms. It can compensate for camera shake up to 5 EV steps.
The 16-megapixel Digital Live MOS sensor without low-pass filter, together with the new, specially tuned Venus Engine image processor, promises stunning image quality. With the mechanical shutter, an electromagnetic drive reduces vibration and noise. With silent electronic shutter, the fastest shutter speed is 1/16,000s.
Image control is via a large OLED viewfinder with 2.4 million pixels.
Panasonic Lumix G Vario 14-140mm / F3.5-5.6 Power O.I.S (H-FS14140).
The LUMIX G VARIO 14-140mm is a 10x superzoom lens with compact dimensions equivalent to the standard 3x zooms found on many digital SLR cameras.
The Micro Four Thirds standard lens is recommended for a wide range of shooting situations from landscape to portrait with a Zoom range of 28-280mm (equivalent to KB).
The design of 14 lens elements in 12 groups also includes three aspherical lenses and two ED lenses, achieving a further reduction in size and weight while maintaining high optical performance throughout the Zoomrange.
Focusing is achieved via a responsive, precise and quiet internal focusing system driven by a stepper motor.
The lens harmonizes perfectly with the LUMIX G cameras' high-speed precision contrast AF system. The POWER O.I.S. optical image stabilizer ensures exceptionally clear shots even at telephoto and in low-light situations by effectively compensating for both fast and slower hand-motion blur.
The Zooms seven blades result in an almost circular aperture, which produces a harmonious blur of the background, especially at wider apertures.
Panasonic Lumix G Vario 100-300mm f4.0-5.6 II OIS
The Lumix G F4-5.6/ 100-300mm super telephoto lens is one of the smallest and lightest in its class. The Zoom of the MicroFourThirds lens, which is only 12.6 cm long (front lens to bayonet) and weighs around 520 g, covers the telephoto range between 100 and 300 mm (200-600 mm corresponding to 35 mm format) and is designed for extreme telephoto, such as sports or wildlife photography.
Its construction of 17 lens elements in 12 groups includes an ED element in the first lens group for perfect image contrast and color reproduction. The continuous close-up limit is 150 centimeters. Of course, it is equipped with Panasonic's proven optical image stabilizer (OIS), enabling maximum sharpness even at the longest focal lengths and when shooting at slower shutter speeds, without the need to use a tripod right away. Seven blades form a circular aperture that allows for beautifully even blurring of subject details outside the depth-of-field range at wide apertures.
The metal bayonet ensures high robustness. Elaborate multi-coating of the lens elements effectively reduces ghosting and fogging and provides crisp contrast at all aperture and focal length settings. The lens also supports face detection and contrast AF. The smallest aperture has a speed of F22, and the filter diameter is 67 mm.
