Press release:
Panasonic is pleased to announce that its award winning DMC-GH1 interchangeable lens camera will be available to purchase as body only – offering Micro Four Thirds Lens owners a cost effective solution to using the DMC-GH1.

The DMC-GH1 is a digital interchangeable lens camera system that delivers professional-level features and performance
in a compact, easy-to-use camera body. The DMC-GH1 is called a CREATIVE HD HYBRID because it records not only high-quality photos but also high definition 1080/25p or smooth 720/50p HD (High Definition) movies in AVCHD[1] format. Continuous AF can be used while recording movies, to further boost operating. Compatible with the Micro Four Thirds System standard, the DMC-GH1 can be partnered with the many Micro Four Thirds Lenses available to offer your preferred shooting experience[2]. To further add to its appeal, thanks to the selection of mount adapters, many different lens system users can now enjoy the DMC-GH1.

Perfect for videographers and photographers alike, this camera won the prestigious European Multimedia Camera 2009-2010 award from the European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA).

Available in stylish black, the DMC-GH1 body only can be purchased in the UK from the beginning of January 2010.
