Features

• Mode dial and hotshoe
• The DMC-G3 provides a traditional DSLR-like experience with an external mode dial for quick access to common modes like program, shutter and aperture priority, manual. Additional dial settings include two custom modes, scene modes and the creative control mode. The DMC-G3 provides a dedicated video button that can be used to switch to video capture quickly without changing modes. Like most DSLRs, the DMC-G3 provides a built-in flash and hotshoe for connecting optional Lumix flashes.
• Dust reduction system
• As with many interchangeable lens cameras, dust on the sensor reduces image clarity. To eliminate this potential, The DMC-G3 uses a dust reduction system that uses a supersonic wave filter in front of the Live MOS sensor. Vibrating vertically around 50,000 time per second, the filter repels dust and other particles effectively.
• Touch-enabled LCD screen
• At the heart of the DMC-G3's improved functionality is a movable 3.0-inch LCD that allows for intuitive touch control of menus and most shooting, focusing, playback and effects controls. Menus can be customized using simple drag-and-drop actions like those on most touch-enabled cell phones. This allows for a custom user interface, giving quick menu access to functions that can be tailored to any users expertise level. Even the shutter can be triggered from the touch-enabled LCD by simply touching the subject you want focused and captured.
• HD video capture
• The Lumix DMC-G3 also shoots 1080/60i high definition video using the AVCHD format. It offers a built-in stereo microphone and is available with Dolby Digital Stereo Creator. Advanced video sound controls include a wind-cut function that further enhances the sound as it helps reduce noise caused by background wind, and an L/R audio meter display for controlling audio levels.
• Faster, accurate pinpoint focusing
• Contrast Detection Auto Focus technology used in point-and-shoot and mirrorless compact system cameras approaches the speeds that were once only available from traditional professional-level DSLRs. The DMC-G3 now offers Light Speed Auto Focus, which locks onto a subject quickly so you wont suffer from "shutter lag" frustration. Contrast Auto Focusing also offers greater shot accuracy due to fewer hardware components needed, thus fewer pictures will suffer from system focusing errors. Manual control over focus is available.
• More burst shooting options
• Rapid burst control at various rates and resolutions. Capture full-resolution 16-megapixel images at up to 4 frames per second with mechanical shutter enabled, or an even faster 20 frames per second using the electronic shutter feature at a reduced resolution of 4-megapixels.
• Intelligent Auto and Intelligent Auto Plus (iA, iA+)
