APOY 2013 Competition Results Round Four – Interior Architecture
Bill Sell, of Carmarthen, is the winner of our Interior Architecture round of APOY 2013. Bill will receive a Panasonic Lumix DMC-G5 with Lumix G Vario 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 Asph Mega OIS and Leica DG Summilux 25mm f/1.4 Asph lenses worth £1,347.98. The G5 is a digital single-lens mirrorless camera with a 16.05-million-pixel, four thirds, Live MOS sensor.
It has 6fps high-speed continuous shooting, a 3in, 920,000-dot articulated LCD touchscreen, and a 1.44-million-dot EVF. The Leica DG Summilux 25mm f/1.4 Asph lens has a bright f/1.4 maximum aperture that provides superb image quality with minimum distortion, plus a beautiful soft focus.
Our second-placed winner is Helen Groumas, of Berlin in Germany, who will receive a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 worth £469.99. This high-spec compact camera has a 10.1-million-pixel High-Sensitivity MOS sensor, f/1.4-2.3 (24-90mm equivalent) Leica Vario-Summilux lens and full manual control.
Ian Butterworth, of Wetherby in West Yorkshire, finished third in the
round and wins a Panasonic Lumix DMC-XS1 (in white) worth £119.99.
Panasonic claims that the 16.1-million-pixel XS1 has the world’s
slimmest body profile, and it’s certainly skinny with a 14mm-deep body.
Its 5x optical zoom with 24mm ultra-wideangle lens and tiny form make
the XS1 the ultimate carry-it-with-you-everywhere camera.
