Camera Overview — Panasonic Lumix DMC-G6

The Panasonic LUMIX DMC-G6 is a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera built around a 16.05MP sensor powered by the Venus Engine image processor. It covers an ISO range of 160 to 25600, giving shooters flexibility across a wide range of lighting conditions. The G6 features a 3.0-inch Vari-Angle LCD with 1.04 million dots of resolution, making it easy to compose shots from unusual angles, whether low to the ground or overhead.

Complementing the rear screen is an OLED electronic viewfinder with 1.44 million dots of resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate for smooth, responsive framing. For autofocus, the camera uses a Contrast Detection system with 23 focus points and subject tracking, though eye tracking is not available. Video shooters get 1080p recording at frame rates up to 60fps in 8-bit color, with a 3.5mm microphone input and Micro HDMI output for monitoring.

Stills burst shooting reaches 7fps. Built-in Wi-Fi adds wireless image transfer and remote control capability, while the Micro Four Thirds lens mount opens access to a broad ecosystem of compatible optics. The polycarbonate and metal chassis body weighs 390g and measures 122 x 85 x 71 mm.

A built-in pop-up flash and standard hot shoe round out the feature set, though the body carries no weather sealing.
