Panasonic Lumix GX7 Is Official

Panasonic Lumix GX7 Is OfficialOver the past couple of days we have seen leaked photos and specifications of Panasonic’s Lumix GX7 camera ahead of its announcement. In case you might not have believed the rumors and leaks, Panasonic has since stepped forward and officially announce the camera. Given the multitude of leaks, there’s really not much that Panasonic announced that surprised us, but at least we now know that the specs are official.

For those wondering what they might be able to expect from the Lumix GX7, this is a Micro Four Thirds camera from Panasonic that will sport a 16MP sensor. It will feature a magnesium alloy body that will make it more sturdy and durable, and will also feature in-body stabilization and a shutter speed of 1/8000, ISO of up to 25,600, and will also be able to record videos at Full HD 1080p quality at 60fps.

The GX7 will also sport a 16:9 vertically tiltable Live View Finder that will be able to begin the autofocus when it detects an eye has been placed onto it, a touchscreen LCD display that can also be tilted up to 80-degrees, along with WiFi and NFC connectivity. The Panasonic Lumix GX7 is expected to be made available in the US this November and will be priced at $1,100 with the 14-42mm kit lens, and $1,000 for just the body-only. [Press release]

Panasonic GX7 specs and images leak, show tiltable 2.76 million dot EVF

Panasonic GX7 specs and images leak, show tiltable EVF and 108060p video

Prolific leaker Digicame Info has just showed off new images of Panasonic’s likely new 16-megapixel Lumix GX7, along with full specs that place it squarely in the high-end, if accurate. Those include a 2.76 million dot EVF that can be tilted 90 degrees, 1/8000th of a second shutter speed, and in-body image stabilization — all of which exceed the company’s $1,500 GH-3 flagship. Other features include a 25,600 max ISO, silent mode shooting, NFC, WiFi, focus peaking, an 80-degree tiltable LCD and full HD, 60 fps video. If 43 Rumors is to be believed, all of that will cost around 1,000 in Europe for the body only (around $1,325). There’s no word on an official arrival yet, but if you’re in the market for a GH-3 and were hoping for something lighter (and cheaper), you may want to hang on. Head after the break to see the tilt EVF, or check the source for more pics.
