NEW FUN
High Defi nition that Goes Beyond Beauty – All the Way to Emotion
My Color mode puts you in control of the color
In My Color mode you can freely adjust
the color, brightness and saturation
parameters, while checking the Full-
time Live View image to see how those
adjustments affect the picture. This
makes it easier and more fun to create
interesting, expressive images. Adjust the settings that best suit
the shooting conditions and your expressive intent, and then enjoy
your own photography.
Film mode – To capture photos with a special
mood or expressiveness
Much like changing
the film type in a
film camera, you
can enjoy a wide
range of expression
based on six color
modes and three monochromatic modes. When the multi-film
mode is selected, you can record pictures having up to three
different effects with each press of the shutter button.
Exposure modes and Scene modes that fi t a
range of situations
The G1 starts with the common P/A/S/M
exposure modes and adds a host more to give
you easy shooting and beautiful results in a
wide range of situations. These include an iA
mode in which the camera makes all of the
settings, a Custom mode that lets you register
up to three sets of settings you use often, and Portrait, Scenery,
Sports, Close-up, Night Portrait, SCN (Sunset/Party/Baby/Pet),
and My Color modes.
Designed for easy operation
A textured coating on the grip makes the
G1 easy to hold and handle, and the grip's
gentle curvature helps prevent hand
fatigue even after extended use. The front
dial on the top of the grip provides even
smoother operation. By pressing the front
dial, you can quickly set the shutter speed, aperture, and exposure
compensation while holding the camera in shooting position.

Advanced Scene modes give you even

In Portrait, Scenery, Sports, Close-up, Night Portrait modes,
you can fi ne-tune four or fi ve of the settings to better match the

image you have in mind.
1920 x 1080-pixel HD (high-defi nition)
photo recording
The G1 shoots wide-screen, 16:9, full-HD images. These images
are simply breathtaking when displayed on an HDTV, which
handles about four times the data of a standard-defi nition TV. With
G1, you can enjoy a whole new style of HDTV viewing with family
and friends.
HD output-ready for the HDTV age
The G1 has an HDMI output terminal.
When the G1 is connected to an HDMI-
compatible TV via an HDMI mini cable
(optional), the user can easily enjoy a
slideshow of photos taken with the G1.
When the G1 is connected to a VIERA TV
that has VIERA Link capability, the TV's
remote control unit can be used to run
the slideshow.

Color selection: Unique in more ways than one
Advanced technologies and performance set the G1 apart from other cameras. Its choice of body colors does too. All models feature
a textured coating and, in addition to authentic black, the G1 comes in attractive red and blue colors that add to the fun of owning this
unique digital interchangeable lens camera. The G1 lets you bring a splash of color into your life while capturing spectacular images of
the world around you.
