Incredibly compact design, Speedy autofocus, Touchscreen, Silent electronic shutter mode, Picture quality: clean and clear shots, noise handled very well, Good 1232 mm kit lens, Builtin flash, Comprehensive video mode, WiFi (but no NFC)
Battery life could be better, No tilt or swivel screen, 1232 mm lens: non motorised, not great for closeup shots, Grip handle is an optional extra, No weatherproof finish
The Panasonic Lumix GM1 is small, light, stylish, pleasant to use and takes top-quality pictures. What's not to like? This interchangeable lens camera packs a good range of features and quality tech specs into a cute little camera that's perfectly portabl...

Small size, lightweight, decent build quality, fast autofocus, great images particularly when considered against high-end compacts, fair price, Micro Four Thirds lens system makes for versatile product, pinpoint focus mode
Poor battery life, 1080i not p video capture, no hotshoe, no viewfinder possible, accidental touchscreen presses not uncommon (can be turned off though), faux leather finish won't impress all
The Panasonic Lumix GM1 is an utterly brilliant little camera. It sits on the fence between compact and compact system cameras yet gleefully sticks its tongue out at both sides. It's rare that a product feels like a hybrid of ideas and yet succeeds...

Small size, Touchscreen, Inbuilt Wi, Fi, Digital Filters
No viewfinder, No hotshoe, No manual control when using filters
Move over Nikon 1 and Pentax Q, Panasonic has made a fantastic small compact system camera but managed to include a large sensor that produces excellent images. This seems like what the Micro Four Thirds range was intended for, and makes a fantastic addit...
High-end finish, Excellent touchscreen performance, Great Wi-fi / NFC functionality
Lack of handgrip an issue, Battery life unimpressive, Lacking viewfinder
The Panasonic GM1 is a truly impressive CSC that impressively designed and delivers good image quality while managing to still fit easily in to a trouser pocket. It has few equals at present, making it an excellent if you value quality and portability in ...
Abstract: My eyes popped when I first laid eyes on the impossibly small Panasonic Lumix GM1. They gleamed over when I heard that it has the same high-performance 16MP sensor inside as the Lumix GX7 . I'd felt unimpressed seeing it in pictures, but then when I picke...
