The even more Rugged FT2

Panasonic have brought forward their April release date of the new Lumix DMC-FT2 to March.

The second generation LUMIX rugged digital camera featuring AVCHD Lite High Definition (HD) video recording capabilities.
Waterproof to a depth of 10m, shockproof from a height of 2m, dust-proof, and now also freeze-proof to -10°C, the DMC-FT2 offers enhanced ruggedness for the active photographer who ventures to extremes.
A newly-developed Venus Engine HD II further strengthens the camera with powerful image processing and high-speed performance. The FT2 features Intelligent Auto (iA) for both still image shooting and video recoding, ensuring optimum settings are automatically selected for the best results, every time. Importantly, the high-quality LEICA lens offers outstanding imaging in both stills and video – perfect for those who want durability without sacrificing image quality.

And how tough does the new styling look. Love it.

Essential Camera Gear - by Jessica King

I would be lost without my Canon EOS 5D and 24-70mm f/2.8. It enables me to keep control in all lighting conditions, which is so very important for wedding photography, and it’s superior performance allows me to work artistically in a fast-paced environment. I am driven to catch those fleeting moments!

Take a look at my latest wedding shoot here. Thanks to the flexibility of my Canon gear I was able to continue shooting through a tough 36 degree day without any fuss and still maintain my creativity and positive interaction with my clients. Phew!

My gear was all purchased from Camera Action Camera House on Elizabeth Street. Drop in and ask the guys to give you a demo so you can find your ideal gear too.

Happy shooting!
Jessica
