Hands on with the Panasonic Lumix DC-G100
(Digital Photography Review)
 


Introduction The Panasonic Lumix DC-G100 is a mirrorless camera designed explicitly for vloggers. To this end, it`s been designed to be small and features an innovative audio setup as well as a fully articulating rear screen. It`s capable of 4K video and both fast and slow 1080 footage. We took a closer look at what the camera offers and both its strengths and its weaknesses for its stated task. Microphones / Tracking Audio Central to the G100`s vlogging credentials are the three microphones built into the top plate of the camera. The separated locations of the mics allow the camera to create directional pickup (and suppression) patterns, using technology licensed from Nokia`s `OZO` virtual reality program.

This not only gives priority to the signal coming from the microphone nearest the detected face, it also uses the other mics to detect and cancel-out background noise that might distract the user. Fully articulated screen / Self Shot mode As you`d expect on a vlogging-focused camera, the G100 has a fully articulated screen. It`s a 1.84M dot touchscreen in which the backlight and liquid crystal layer are very close together, maximizing both viewing angle and brightness. When flipped forward, the camera automatically engages a `Self Shot` mode, that engages a series of simple touchscreen functions, such as `Background Control` that lets you select either whether the aperture should be opened up to provide a `defocused` background or stopped down to make it `clear.` Processing options such as skin smoothing and slimming mode are also present, to provide a social media-friendly result out-of-camera.
