Panasonic's compact digital camera equipped with two lenses and image pickup device in one body "3D1". In addition to being able to shoot 3D movies in full HD by side by side method with two lenses side by side, we have a unique function that you can take pictures with another lens while taking normal movie shooting. This time, the largest camera in Japan, a comprehensive exhibition of photographs and images "CP +I was able to check the actual machine at the venue, so I've surely confirmed the comfort of using it.

I came to Panasonic booth. The company's digital camera brand name "LUMIX" logo is shining on the right.


Discovered actual machine. Certainly there are two lenses. When converting to 35 mm format, it is equipped with optical 4 × zoom of 25 to 100 mm, and the F value showing brightness is 3.9 (wide angle side). A 1 / 2.3 type MOS sensor with 12 million effective pixels and an optical image stabilization mechanism are built in, and the continuous shooting speed is up to 12 frames per second. As a strange appearance, as a concealment, I kept the key pressed down, feeling that it is comparable to a normal model except for a few pixels.


Full HD with side-by-side method, 3D movie of 30 fps can be taken, continuous recording time is about 29 minutes 59 seconds.


On the back is a 3.5 inch TFT liquid crystal, you can check movies and pictures during shooting in live view.


The top is like this. On the left side of the Panasonic logo are a stereo microphone, a power switch on the right side of the logo, a zoom control and shutter, and buttons for starting and stopping movie shooting.


It is the bottom.


The recording medium is SDXC card, the weight at the time of shooting is about 193 grams. The number of still images that can be taken continuously for still images during full charge is about 200.


Touch operation is possible on the liquid crystal on the back, and it is possible to focus by tapping. You can select and enlarge photos on the preview screen with a flick operation like a smartphone.

Switch between 2D and 3D with the switch on the back of the main unit. Since the rear liquid crystal is not compatible with 3D, it will be confirmed with this switch whether 3D shooting is in progress or not.
