It has inbuilt buttons for triggering either a still image or a video and can be used to hold the camera steady while walking and talking, used like a selfie stick to film yourself, or used as traditional tripod if you’re presenting to camera. Sold as part of a kit bundle, or as an optional extra, the new Tripod Grip (SHGR1) is also aimed at the traveling YouTuber. Other specs include a 20.3MP MOS sensor, five-axis hybrid image stabilization, a fully-articulating touch-sensitive screen, an electronic viewfinder and a single SD-card slot. Panasonic is so confident that this microphone system will do a good job that it says you shouldn’t need to invest in an external one, though that's slightly contradicted by the inclusion of a 3.5mm mic input.
Vloggers may also find the fact that there’s a rear microphone for picking up sound as you’re walking and talking a particular bonus. While we've seen this appear in smartphones, this is a first for cameras, and it helps the G100's three internal microphones pick up clear sound no matter where it’s coming from. The big news, though, comes in the shape of the new audio system – Ozo Audio by Nokia. It’s even roughly the same price as the Canon EOS M50, a camera which has been on the market for a number of years – making the G100 something of a bargain when it comes to new cameras. It compares well against other popular vlogging cameras, being slightly cheaper than the recently launched Sony ZV-1, which has a smaller sensor and doesn’t give you the option to change lenses. For a limited time only (until 31 August), UK customers can get a free grip when you buy the body only or kit lens variant. Panasonic seems to have aggressively priced the G100, perhaps in a bid to take the ‘vlogging’ crown from other competitors already in the market.Īs a result, you can pick up the G100 body only for £589/AU$1099, with a 12-32mm kit lens for £679/US$749/AU$1299 and with both the kit lens and the grip for £719/US$799/AU$1399.
