Panasonic GH3
Available Today
The Panasonic GH3 is the flagship, pro-caliber mirrorless camera from Panasonic that features a Micro 4/3rd-sized sensor. The 16MP Live MOS sensor and advanced Venus Engine processor combine to produce high quality images and video with smooth gradation, high sensitivity, and low noise. It has a normal ISO range of 200-12,800 that allows the flexibility to shoot in any lighting condition. Panasonic’s highly responsive Light Speed AF system provides AF sensor readouts of 240fps, which equates to extremely fast and accurate performance. Its Full-area Focusing lets you select any area within the frame to set an adjustable-sized AF point, supporting continuous focus for both still and video shooting.
While the Panasonic GH2 offered a great amount of video flexibility (some of which was not official), the GH3 offers a greatly expanded amount of control. It records Full HD 1080P video at up to 60fps, and shoots natively to MOV file format with your choice of 50Mbps IPB or 72Mbps All-I compression formats. There’s built-in timecode functionality with a count up system with Rec. Run / Free Run option, as well as a Drop Frame / Non-Drop Frame mode. Recording time limits have been minimized thanks to the GH3’s seamless file generation and advanced heat-dispersing design, allowing extended continuous recording without interruption or overheating issues. You’ve got multiple input options for expansion capabilities, with a mini-HDMI port that supports both monitor loop-through and external recording (uncompressed 4-2-0), and 3.5mm mic and headphone inputs for advanced audio functionality with in-camera level adjustment.
Physically, the GH3 has grown in size from its predecessor, but the gain is a sturdy, weather-sealed, magnesium-alloy build. It has a traditional focal-plane mechanical shutter, but also offers a fully-silent electronic front and rear shutter. Both the 1,744K-dot EVF and 614K-dot free-angle rear LCD are of OLED design, working in tandem to provide an extremely high quality experience. It has a pop-up flash (GN17 @ISO 200) for quick fill, a standard ISO hotshoe for external flash units, and a PC Sync input for studio strobe use. There’s an integrated intervalometer for time lapse shooting, as well as multiple creative art and automated pick-up-and-shoot modes. The GH3 is also the first Micro 4/3rds camera to have built-in Wi-Fi functionality that allows both remote camera control and image backup to an Android or iOS smartphone / tablet via their dedicated app. It writes images and video to SDHC / XC memory cards, and uses a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that’s rated for approximately 500 shots per charge.
