Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 Camera Body (SEE TEST PIC)
~ with Brand New USB Charger (with indicator for fully charged)
~ and aftermarket DWM-BLB13-Compatible Battery (battery not included in international shipments because it is Li-ion, sorry)
~ and Body Cap & Eyecup
This is the world's first model of mirrorless camera.
The camera is fully functioning, the LCD screen fully articulates and gives the display it should, and the flash works.
There is no SD card but l've tested it with my own and noted that there may be limitations. Apparently it cannot take more than 32GB (l've tested it with a 32GB SD card and it works fine, but it cannot recognise a much larger 256GB SD card, a microSD within a standard sized adapter). A sign of the times, 256GB was inconceivable back then, probably.
ISSUES:
- Fairly well worn.
- Moderate stickiness has set in on some surfaces / vertices, owing to the rubberised material used, that material was all the rage in the 2000s for about a decade. The problem is of course worsened by people's attempts to wipe the stickiness away using cleaning solution. The point is: it's not really something to wipe away, it's chemistry.
- There is are two splits noted to the rubber eyecup, but you'll need to force them by squeezing the rubber to notice them.
DETAILS:
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 is the world's first
digital mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera, launched by Panasonic in
September 2008.
