Pairing an updated high resolution 20.3 MP Digital Live MOS sensor and a Venus Engine image processor, the black Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX8 is a sleek, compact mirrorless camera enabling versatile, 4K UHD movies and full-resolution stills recording, delivering fast overall performance, a wider dynamic range, with notable image quality to suit working in a wide variety of conditions. Complementing the imaging capabilities is a unique Dual I.S. system that offers the use of both in-camera and in-lens image stabilization systems to effectively minimize the appearance of camera shake. This camera will capture your subjects in the best way possible. Its sophisticated design will satisfy even the most experienced photographers.
The LUMIX GX8 integrates Dual I.S. for more effective results. The GX8’s body I.S. works in tandem with the LUMIX lens I.S. for maximum stabilization. With a maximum 3.5x wider correction angle at wide end, you can get clear handheld shots even in low-light situations. The LUMIX GX8 integrates the newly developed 20.3-megapixel Digital Live MOS Sensor that achieves highest ever image quality in the history of LUMIX digital cameras. It achieves high speed burst, max. ISO25600 high sensitivity image recording and wider dynamic range. The combination of the Digital Live MOS Sensor and the Venus Engine achieves clear image rendering with minimum noise even in low-lit situations and stunning picture quality.
Special moments you want to remember can occur at any time and should be captured in the best resolution possible. With the introduction of the new LUMIX GX8, you will be able to record video in 4K (up to QFHD: 3840 x 2160 pixels, 25 fps, 100Mbit/s). Furthermore, with the 4K Photo feature, you can extract the perfect photo out of a 4K video (30 frames/photos per second) sequence easily on the camera and save it as an 8-megapixel equivalent still image. The 4K Photo function can be used in three different modes – 4K burst shooting 8-megapixel equivalent images extracted from 4K video, 4K Burst S/S (Start/Stop): 4K burst recording as 4K video then play, pause, and extract any frame as an 8-megapixel equivalent image later and 4K pre-burst starts recording one second before and after you press the shutter button. All allowing you to capture that perfect moment at a high burst rate.
The LUMIX GX8 comes with a high-resolution (2,360k-dot) Tiltable OLED Live View Finder which allows high visibility thanks to a 10,000:1 contrast and perfect framing even under direct sunlight conditions. High 0.77x magnification (35mm camera equivalent) makes it easy to see image details. Also with all your settings displayed right in front of your eye, your pictures will always come out exactly how you want them to. The 1040k-dot rear monitor boasts tilt & swivel capability, making it more comfortable even for vertical composition. The LUMIX GX8 camera body is composed of a magnesium alloy, full diecast front and rear frame. Tight seals on every joint, dial and button enable splashproof / dustproof performance.
