Video enthusiasts will be thrilled to take this camera underwater and create some amazing footage while keeping their rig compact and travel friendly.<\/p>\n<p>For still shooters this camera is fantastic as well, with superb image quality due to the Micro 4\/3 sensor and a big variety of manual controls which will be a challenge for housing manufacturers, but a big plus for the end user.<\/p>\n<p>Some key features for still shots make use of Panasonic&#8217;s Venus Engine and Depth from Defocus technology, which give this small camera its &#8220;super powers&#8221;.\u00a0Continuous mode allows 11 frames per second (focus and exposure locked), or 6.5 fps with varying AF\/AE. If the electronic shutter is used (allowing shutter speed of 1\/16,000 second!), its possible to reach an unbelievable 40 frames per second!<\/p>\n<p>The camera should start shipping out soon, and we will keep you updated once a housing is released so make sure you are <strong>subscribed to our newsletter<\/strong> to receive updates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Housings would be available <a href=\"http:\/\/www.housingcamera.com\/popular-cameras-for-uw\/point-and-shoot-housings\/panasonic-lx100\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Panasonic have really outdone themselves with this camera.
