Good
Easytouse iA mode
Control with buttons or touchscreen
Nice screen (definition
Viewing angles)
Picture quality up to 800 ISO
Decent video
Compact design when used with a 'pancake' type lens
While most cameras with interchangeable lenses feature bulky mirror mechanisms (SLRs)
The Panasonic GF2 is a lot smaller. It doesn't have any internal mirrors
Helping to keep the design incredibly compact
Something which is further helped by a touchscreen rather than hardware buttons. Build quality is also impressive
With metal used for the body of the Panasonic GF2. It gives it a premium fee
One-touch HD video recording
Lightweight yet sturdy with lens attached
Image quality exceeds expectation
Fast and responsive
Smaller
Faster and easier-to-use than its predecessor
Can shoot 3D videos and stills
DSLR-quality images
Interchangeable lenses
Full-HD 1080p video capture
The editors didn't like
No mode dial
14mm kit lens bundle only

A few more buttons might be nice?
Partly but not entirely touchcontrol (e.g. main menu)
Image quality above 1600 ISO
Noisy shutterrelease
Images aren't automatically rotated unless you use a stabilised lens
The biggest issue with the Panasonic GF2 is the presence of noise in darker conditions and higher ISOs. Although this isn't an issue in a cheap camera
At over £500 the Panasonic GF2 is mixing with some serious rivals
And entry-level DSLRs from Canon and Nikon have it beaten in low lighting conditions.
Loses the useful shooting mode dial of its GF1 predecessor and overall doesn’t feel quite as revolutionary – more a subtle refinement
En küçük flaşlı aynasız fotoğraf makinesi olarak duyurulan Lumix GF2, bayrağı GF1'den devralırken, taşınabilirlik ve yüksek fotoğraf kalitesini bir arada isteyen kullanıcılara göz kırpıyor....
