The much anticipated Panasonic GH1, which has been simply a forthcoming mention on the horizon, is now well within reach. Panasonic announced pricing and availability this morning. Suggested retail is $1499.95 and will be available in early June.

The kit includes the Lumix G Vario 14-140mm f/4.0-5.8 ASPH/MEGA O.I.S. lens, designed to support HD movie recording including a silent motor and continuos auto focusing (AF).

Video features:

  • record high-resolution full HD (1920×1080) video at 24 fps
  • record smooth HD (1280×720) video at 60 fps using an AVCHD format, which doubles the HD quality recording time
  • dedicated video record button on the back of the camera–even while shooting still photos, you can instantly jump to video mode
  • adjust shutter speed during motion recording for more creative control, especially when shooting fast-moving subjects
  • control the aperture while video recording, convenient when there are several subjects at varying distances

Brief Specs:

  • 12MP, live MOS sensor
  • 1080p Full HD AVCHD Camcorder (Full-HD Movie Recording in AVCHD)
  • compact mirror-free design
  • micro four-thirds mount

“Since redefining the traditional DSLR category last year with the LUMIX G1 – which eliminated the internal mirror and thus dramatically reduced size of the camera body and lenses – Panasonic has been working to expand its award-winning LUMIX G Micro Four Thirds System line.  Panasonic wants to offer increasingly innovative products and features that make photography fun and easy,” said David Briganti, Senior Product Manager, Imaging, Panasonic Consumer Electronics Company. “The introduction of the LUMIX GH1, allows photographers of all levels to take superior quality photos and shoot HD video with a more compact, easy-to-use camera that provides increased creative capabilities.”

We’ll be reviewing the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1 just as soon as we get our hands on one. Look for a review on photo.net soon.
