Panasonic announced Lumix Smart Camera DMC CM1



Its the Japanese multinational manufacturer taking on the South Korean consumer electronics giant, Samsung with their latest announcement in the category of camera-centric smartphones, where now we have Panasonic unveiling their newest addition of high-end product named as Lumix Smart Camera DMC-CM1, which made its debut at yesterdays Photokina 2014 event, the worlds largest trade fair for the photographic and imaging industries, in Cologne, Germany.

We reckon, this new device from Panasonic is here to take on its competitor Samsung Galaxy K Zoom from the market, which packs a large protruding one-inch sensor on the back for outstanding quality on photographs and videos, from a premium compact camera smartphone, basically seeking interest in the photo generic customers. As we all know, the company have been struggling a bit on the leader board with their Eluga branded Android smartphones, which is mainly focused on the consumers in India, but now the things seems to be changing as we see more premier and luxurious products from the manufacturer.

Like any other camera smartphones, the new Panasonic Lumix Smart Camera CM1 will too run over Android operating system, which is the late version 4.4 KitKat. So, first things first, when we look at its huge one-inch primary lens on the back, the shooter is capable of capturing images at 20 megapixels resolution with an f/2.8 integrated Leica DC Elmarit lens and MOS sensor, that can shoot and record Ultra High Definition 4K pictures and videos at 15 frames-per-second, along with Full High Definition 1080p footages at 30 frames-per-second. The devices manual control exterior lens ring allows you to fully adjust the aperture, ISO and shutter speed, accordingly as required by the scene.

Under the hood you have a Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, speeding at 2.3GHz, a 4.7-inches Full High Definition screen of 1920 x 1080 resolution display, 16 gigabytes of on board mass storage (expandable via microSD card slot up to 128 GB) and two gigabytes of Random Access Memory. From the connectivity side, you get WiFi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, Near Field Communication (NFC), 4G LTE Cat.4 network modem support and a 2,600mAh powered battery. The device is pretty thick than any other handsets you can easily find out in the market, measured at 21.1 millimeters in thickness and units weight goes slightly hefty at 204 grams.

As far as the Panasonic Lumix Smart Camera DMC-CM1s availability and pricing details are taken to concern, the device will be officially launched in France and Germany starting the month of November, which should go retailing for a price of  €899, now thats as expensive as 1164 United States Dollars. Unfortunately, theres still no words from the phone maker on its global arrival.
