Light & Compact Design
GX-1L is ergonomically designed for fantastic ease of use. Made with a light and robust
stainless steel chassis, its body weighs only 505g. The specially-finished grip adds a stable
picture-taking capability to this super-light, slim digital SLR. One of many features of
GX-1L is the large 2.5" LCD, making it well equipped to display the high quality of the images taken.
Bright Pentamirror viewfinder with picture coverage of 96%
(Magnification 0.96X)
The pentamirror viewfinder provides 96% coverage rate, meaning that the view you have is almost identical to the image you will create.
2.5-inch large TFT LCD
GX-1L has a 2.1 million-pixel, 2.5-inch large TFT LCD, providing a wide and clear screen, enabling you to review the image more easily, thus enhancing picture accuracy and clarity.
Versatile screen display
The large and clear LCD also allows you to easily navigate the camera's menu.
This enables you to control the camera settings, such as resolution and picture
quality as well as settings including ISO, white balance, drive mode, and flash settings.
Convenient information LCD on top
A separate information LCD on top of the camera makes the GX-1L even easier to use.
The LCD displays information about camera operation, including shutter speed, iris value,
flash operation, photographing mode, focus, bracketing, white balance, and remaining battery capacity.
TTL open-aperture 16-segment metering system
Equipped with a 16-split photometry system, GX-1L enables accurate measurements of the
intensity of radiation and colour distribution based on the AF information even in tricky lighting conditions. This allows you to obtain the best exposure for each different circumstance.
Available modes are: Multi, Center-weighted and Spot.
Schneider D-XENON Lens
The superior Schneider-Kreuznach lens produces crystal clear images. By using a highly
refractive lens, chromatics and distortion are eliminated. For more natural-looking pictures, each lens surface is multi-coated to minimize the "ghost" or "flare" phenomenon.
Highly sensitive photographing supported (ISO 3200)
GX-1S has an auto sensitivity feature that automatically adjusts sensitivity according to
the ambient exposure conditions up to ISO 3200. It is equipped with the standard output features of ISO 200, 400, 800, 1600, and 3200. The high sensitivity setting of ISO 3200 enables you to take clear indoor pictures in the dark without camera shake and the resulting image blurring.
Continuous shooting at 2.8 pictures per second
With continuous shooting at 2.8 (up to 8 if the noise reduction is off) pictures per second,
GX-1L will meet the expectations of even the most demanding photographers.
Convenient Mode dial
With a total of seven modes, including landscape, macro, and standard, GX-1L takes a great
shot in every situation. In AUTO SCN mode, the camera automatically identifies the subject and selects the best mode from the five modes: portrait, landscape,macro, moving object, and standard. The AUTO SCN mode automatically adjusts AF,white balance, saturation, sharpness, and contrast as well as exposure, making sure that the camera's settings are placed to capture the best possible picture.
Bulb shutter and 1/4000-sec high-speed shutter
GX-1L supports precise shutter speeds from 30 seconds to 1/4000 seconds, enabling a wide range of photo-taking techniques, including capturing moving subjects and using the long shutter and the bulb shutter for night-time shooting.
Exposure-correction device and AE lock feature
The exposure-correction dial and the AE lock button are located in the position that is easy to
access while photographing, improving ease of use and convenience.
Electronic preview lever for checking the depth of field
GX-1L has a jog dial featuring the preview lever for checking the depth of field, thus maximizing ease of use and efficiency.
Auto-bracketing - Take pictures with the 3-step exposure
GX-1L helps you achieve more accurate images with the autobracketing feature, which allows
you to select the best image according to the 3-step exposure.
Automatically pop-up, built-in P-TTL stroboscope
GX 1L has the built-in P-TTL controlled automatic stroboscope with enhanced exposure by automatic radiation. It features automatic pop-up in dim light, red-eye reduction, and adjustment of radiation intensity. A separate external stroboscope will add more features to the lighting characteristics.
