Panasonic DMC-GH1 with 14-140mm lens

$1,159.00 to $2,016.00



The LUMIX GH1 features the Live View Finder system which enables something that simply is not possible with conventional DSLR cameras – the ability to preview the effects of camera settings (e.g., exposure, aperture, shutter speed) before taking the photo. This helps take the guesswork out of the camera setting process and helps users ensure that every photo they capture comes out exactly as they envisioned.Minimize

Canon EOS 1000D with 18-55mm IS lens


The precise auto focus system of the EOS 1000D keeps you focused for sharp images. Featuring a diamond-shaped array of seven AF points, this newly improved system delivers outstanding coverage of nearly any subject, both in horizontal and vertical formats. The seven AF points — one high-precision cross-type center AF point with f/2.8 sensitivity and six others compatible at f/5.6 — provide fast, accurate auto focus for any Canon EF lens even when shooting in low-light environments. Focus points can be assigned automatically using one of three different AF modes or manually.Minimize

Il est doté d'un écran ACL Photo Claire(MC) de 2,7 pouces qui est facile à visionner, même en plein soleil. De plus, l'écran ACL peut être incliné vers le haut ou le bas, facilitant le cadrage de votre sujet à des positions élevées ou basses. Il est aussi doté d'une interface graphique avec guide d'aide intégré à l'écran qui offre des explications claires et concises pour les divers modèles et réglages, tandis que l'affichage graphique vous aide à comprendre la relation entre l'ouverture et la vitesse d'obturateur, de même que l'effet de ces derniers sur les résultats photographiques.Minimize
