Panasonic today announced that it has been awarded two prestigious 2014 TIPA awards, widely recognized as one of the most coveted photo and imaging awards worldwide. Panasonic’s LUMIX DMC-GH4 has been awarded ‘Best Hybrid Photo/Video Camera’ and the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-TZ60(ZS40) ‘Best Superzoom Camera’.
“Panasonic 4K cameras have given the photography enthusiasts the world over a new dimension when it comes to high quality videos and photos. Our products are designed to enhance the daily lives of our consumers, especially cameras, which are now part and parcel of everyday life. The GH4 and TZ60 are photography marvels that will delight any affluent photographer,” commented Hitesh Ojha, Deputy General Manager, Audio Video Products Department, Panasonic Marketing Middle East & Africa.
LUMIX DMC-GH4 for Best Hybrid Photo/Video Camera
Panasonic’s LUMIX DMC-GH4 was named ‘Best Hybrid Photo/Video Camera’ and is the ideal interchangeable lens camera for both amateur and professional photographers and videographers that want the benefits of 4K technology to deliver the specialist quality they expect. This follows Panasonic’s LUMIX DMC-GH3 winning the ‘Best CSC Professional’ category last year.
A TIPA jury spokesperson commented: “The Panasonic GH4 is a mirrorless 16 MP Live MOS Sensor camera housed in a magnesium alloy body that can record 4K video. It has a newly developed Venus Engine processor that has been enhanced with a quadcore CPU to handle the high data rate. While the GH4 can be thought of as a pro video camera, especially when coupled with the dedicated LUMIX DMW-YAGH pro workflow module, it can also deliver up to 12 frames-per-second still recording with burst rates of 40 when shooting RAW and 100 in JPEG. The Live-View OLED Finder (LVF) has a remarkable 2.359 million RGB dots, while the monitor has 1.036 RGB dots, both of which make for clear and vibrant viewing.”
LUMIX DMC-TZ60(ZS40) for Best Superzoom Camera
Panasonic’s LUMIX DMC-TZ60(ZS40), the ideal travel companion to capture breath-taking moments with absolute clarity with a 30x optical zoom, was named ‘‘Best Superzoom Camera’’.
A TIPA jury spokesperson commented: “The Panasonic TZ60(ZS40) is lightweight, at about half a pound, and comes in a very compact form factor (4.3 x 2.5 x 1.35 inches) for a camera with a 30X (35mm equivalent: 24-720mm) Leica integral lens. The camera has an 18 MP MOS sensor with a 3 inch Live View LCD plus an electronic viewfinder with 100% field of view. It offers RAW format plus video recording, focus peaking and advanced HYBRID O.I.S.+ (Hybrid Optical Image Stabilizer Plus), to effectively suppresses hand movement in both photo and video recording, essential in a small camera with this type of zoom range. The TZ60 also has a built-in flash, plus WiFi, GPS and NFC capability. ”
