Advantages and Disadvantages of Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1 (Review)

Although not yet in category of DSLR camera (Digital Single Lens Reflex), but the Panasonic Lumix DMC-it’s included GH1 qualified for a non-DSLR camera. Body style and some of the features presented were not too far from the camera which is identical with these professional photographers.
There is a clear difference between the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1 with DSLR camera. If DSLR camera usually uses mirrors to reflect images that captured the lens to the sensor, the Lumix DMC-GH1 was actually chosen to use a compact camera work system that put the sensor directly behind the lens so no longer need the mirror. The advantage is clear that body size can be reduced.
Like the DSLR camera, lens Lumix DMC-GH1 this can be changed as required. This is beneficial for those who want to switch to DSLR camera or even those who are accustomed to using a DSLR camera but looking for alternatives that have the cameras ‘power’ but not too large. Since standing between compact cameras and DSLR cameras, the automatic settings option remains available to bridge the beginner, although the manual settings are also still available.

These cameras also have the ability to record video in high definition format (1920×1080 pixels) and pulled again, Panasonic also installed connector for an external microphone so that the audio quality of recordings can be better controlled.
