- Advanced self shot modes making your selfie more impressive
The LUMIX GF Series has been providing a variety of unique functions to enjoy selfie and the new GX880 also comes with advanced features. The 4K PHOTO self shot mode lets you choose the best frame later after shooting burst image at 30 fps in 4K resolution never to miss the fleeting photo opportunity. Now this 4K selfie supports wider angle of view without cropping a frame, which enables to capture the background subjects and scenery*2. It is also convenient for large group selfie. This means you can shoot 4K selfie in 24mm*1, in original wide angle that the lens provides, when you use the lens such as LUMIX G VARIO 12-32mm / F3.5-5.6 ASPH. / MEGA O.I.S.(H-FS12032). Users can choose the setting of 4K selfie from the new wider viewing angle shot at 15 fps or the conventional cropped viewing angle at 30 fps, depending on the situation.
The LUMIX GX880 also enables impressive selfie shooting with a night scape. Both people in front and the background can be captured even more vibrantly by shooting the subject and the background separately and synthesizes the images.
A rich variety of beauty functions in LUMIX GX880 enables users to shoot more attractive portraits. In shooting mode, Soft Skin makes the skin look smoother while Slimming thins the subject’s face lines in 10 fine steps. In addition, Background Control mode lets users choose to capture the background defocused or clearly. In this mode, the [Defocus] setting defocuses the background to make subjects stand out, and [Clear] captures both the subject and the background clearly, to make selfie shots while traveling or at an event more impressive. Selfies can also be shot in panorama pictures, which is ideal for group selfies and selfies in front of a dynamically scenic background.
After shooting, you can even apply virtual make-up to the face in playback mode with the Beauty Retouch function*. In Aesthetic Retouch, various effects can be applied to the face, including enhancing the skin texture, lifting the face, whitening the teeth, and so on. In Make-up Retouch, users can choose the color of the foundation, lips, cheeks, and eye-shadow.
The 3.0-inch 1040K-dot static type touch control monitor boasts a 180-degree tiltable structure. When the monitor is flipped up, the camera automatically activates Self Shot mode. In conventional selfie pictures, users have to stretch their arms to hold the camera, which makes the selfies all too common. However, the hands-free selfie allows users to use their hands as they like, resulting in freer, more expressive posing. Face Shutter and Buddy Shutter functions can also be used to trigger the shutter release in the LUMIX GX880. They work when the face is once covered with a waving hand or when two faces come closer in a frame.

- Ultra high-definition 4K video and 4K PHOTO for unmissable moments
The LUMIX GX880 is not just a stylish camera for good selfie but is an excellent gear for recording high quality video. With its high-speed signal readout of the sensor and processing of the engine, the LUMIX GX880 records smooth, high-resolution 4K videos in 3840×2160 resolution at 30p / 25p or 24p in addition to the Full-HD 1,920 x 1,080 60p / 50p videos with practical full-time AF.
Thanks to this 4K technology, users can experience 4K PHOTO to capture fleeting photo opportunities at 30 fps by extracting the frame with the best timing out of a 4K burst file to save as a photo. In 4K PHOTO, three modes can be chosen from depending on the situation; 4K Burst, 4K Burst (Start/Stop) and 4K Pre-burst. All of these functions in 4K PHOTO let the user save pictures in 8-megapixel equivalent high resolution, which is good enough for printing in A3 size, and help to avoid missing those spur-of-the-moment shots. Plus, multiple images can be saved as 4K PHOTO shots all at once in the LUMIX GX880. A maximum of 150 frames in five seconds following a designated frame can be saved.
The LUMIX GX880 also comes with a Post Focus function that lets users select the in-focus area even after shooting. This is helpful in situations like macro shooting where strict focusing is required or for changing expressions by changing the focused subject. This function was developed by combining the high-speed, high-precision DFD (Depth From Defocus) auto focus technology and 4K technology. The Focus Stacking function enables users to adjust the depth of field after shooting by combining multiple images shot with the Post Focus function in the camera. Users do not need to focus strictly while shooting as they can obtain the image with the defocus level that they want or pan-focus the image by simply selecting the focus area after shooting. This is beneficial when shooting macro shots of insects, small accessories, and so on.

- High image quality with true-to-life detail and impressive color reproduction
The LUMIX GX880 lets users shoot vibrant, true-to-life high quality images with excellent resolution, high contrast and impressive color reproduction. By removing the low-pass filter, the limiting resolution has been improved while detecting high-frequency components to suppress the generation of moire by the Venus Engine. The Venus Engine even reproduces vibrant, impressive colors for images such as clear skies by dividing the hue, saturation, and luminosity, and finely adjusts them separately. The combination of the Digital Live MOS Sensor and the Venus Engine achieves clear image rendering with minimum noise even in low-lit situations and at max. ISO 25600.
The response of the LUMIX GX880 itself also stands out. The Contrast AF achieves even higher-speed, higher-precision focusing with digital signal communication at max. 240 fps. Furthermore, the DFD (Depth From Defocus) technology*1 calculates the distance to the subject by evaluating 2 images with different sharpness levels while consulting the data for the optical characteristics of the current lens in a moment. As a result, the LUMIX GX880 achieves an ultra high-speed AF of approx.0.07 sec*2.. A multi- processing capability achieves high speed burst shooting at 5.8 fps (AFS) / 5 fps (AFC) to capture fast-moving subjects in crisp focus.
For AF performance, the Low Light AF makes it possible to set focus on the subject more precisely even without an AF assist lamp in extremely low-lit situations down to -4EV, which is as dark as under moonlight. Plus, the LUMIX GX880 features Starlight AF which allows users to shoot a star in the sky at night with auto focus. This is achieved by accurately calculating the contrast value in a smaller AF zone. A total of 49 focus detection areas enable more flexible composition together with the Custom Multi AF mode in which users can freely select the blocks to focus on out of the 49 focusing areas. In addition to conventional Face Recognition AF, the LUMIX GX880 incorporates Face / Eye Detection AF which automatically focuses directly on the eye of a human face. With Pinpoint AF, users can magnify the target area for a more precise focus.
