Abstract: Review Date: June 28, 2010 Photoxels Editor’s Choice 2010 – Compact DIL/DSLR This Panasonic Lumix DMC-G2 Review is based on a production model. All sample images are unretouched, except where specified. The Panasonic Lumix DMC-G2 adds touchscreen f...
The G2 has plenty to offer with an articulating touch screen LCD, high-resolution EVF, and HD video recording. It delivers the solid image quality we've come to expect from Panasonic's MFT cameras.
At first glance the Panasonic G2 may seem like a G1 with an HD Movie mode latched on - but it's oh so much more of a success than that. After getting to grips with the new touchscreen LCD it becomes apparent that both first-time and more advanced user...
Very good photo quality (though see issues below), Compact, well designed body with interchangeable lenses; comes in three colors, Flipout, rotating 3inch touchscreen LCD display with high resolution, great outdoor / low light visibility, Generally wellimplemented touch features for focus, phototaking, menu navigation, and image playback, Large, high resolution electronic viewfinder, Firstrate li
Camera tends to slightly underexpose and clip highlights, Redeye a problem; digital correction feature did not help, at least for me, Touch features don't add a lot to the shooting experience; too easy to accidentally change focus area, Unremarkable continuous shooting mode, Movies created with AVCHD Lite codec are difficult to share and edit; frame rate isn't true 60 fps; Motion JPEG movies have
I won't soon forget the meeting in which I was introduced to the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1, the first Micro Four Thirds camera to hit the market. I was wowed not so much by its size (it really isn't that small), but by how closely it resembled Panasonic'...
Rear control dial is in better position, Articulating, high-resolution 3:2 LCD, High-resolution EVF, IR sensor switches between EVF and LCD, Good shape to grip, Soft, warm rubber finish, 20g lighter than its predecessor, but camera still has good heft,...
Grip area is somewhat slick, Rear EVF protrudes far behind the camera, making it harder to fit into small spaces, Kit lens has no IS switch (camera menu only); plastic mount, Lots of geometric distortion in uncorrected RAW at wide-angle, which contribu...
Its predecessor set new benchmarks for EVF quality, and also established a whole new category of mirrorless, interchangeable-lens digital cameras, so its natural that we'd expect a lot from the Panasonic G2. In many ways, the Panasonic G2 delivers, wit...
Nice touch-screen implementation; articulated LCD; relatively fast; pretty good EVF
Images a little noisier at midrange ISO sensitivities than they should be, too easy to accidentally move focus points with touch screen
Although the photos look a hair noisier and overprocessed compared with many competitors, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-G2 has a lot to recommend about it--including a flip-and-twist touch-screen and speedy performance.
Abstract: By using Micro Four Thirds System standard and developing a camera body that eliminates the mirror box and optical viewfinder unit, Panasonic was able to create a newgeneration system camera that features full-time Live View, high-speed, high-precisio...
Image quality is outstanding, Camera layout is good, important features are accessible by "one touch", Quick autofocus and good response times, LCD can rotate away from the camera, can shoot photos with touch on LCD, EVF is extremely bright and sharp
Will take some time to learn all of the features, LCD is a little tough to see in direct sunlight, Price seems a little high, Touchscreen LCD is easy to smudge
Abstract: Panasonic DMC-GH2 Review March 2011| Barnaby Britton (with additional material by Richard Butler and Uwe Steinmuller) When Panasonic first launched the GH1, its second Micro Four Thirds camera, it was widely seen as simply being a G1 with video shooti...
The arrival of the just-mentioned ‘APS-C' format models has undoubtedly livened up the interchangeable lens compact camera category, but the G2 shifts the focus back on the Micro Four Thirds format. Not only has Panasonic made sure that the G2 has a good ...
