Panasonic first unveiled its photocentric smartphone Lumix DMC-CM1 at Photokina show in September last year which later went on sale in UK. The good news is, the device will be entering US very soon and it is already available for pre-orders on Adorama with a price tag of $999 USD (Roughly #199,000 NGN).
The Lumix DMC-CM1 also known as Lumix CM1 is more of a camera than a smartphone but it offers both functionality averagely, one not affecting the other. Combining this two elements in a very slim body that measures just 135.4 x 68 x 21.1 mm makes it stand-out from other photocentric smartphones. The rear camera packs a 1 inch sensor and Leica optics, touting a 28mm lens with f/2.8 aperture, which can be manually adjusted through control ring embedded in the camera module for capturing every day in its beauty and recording every single moment in 4K (2560p) resolution.
