Panasonic DMC G Review: Digital Photography Review

But that was then, and here’s now, and in March Panasonic announced not one, but two successor models both with movie mode to the G1, splitting the line into a budget edition the G10, to be reviewed later and the model featured here, the G2. The thinking behind the choice is easy cutting back on the expensive stuff like an excellent high resolution viewfinder allows Panasonic to compete with the bargain DLSRs that dominate the large box sellers’ shelves. The G10 adds little to the G1 beyond a MJPEG movie mode, but loses a number of of the G1’s defining points big, high res EVF, swivel screen, so for us the G2 is by far the more appealing model. In both cases the physical design and the sensor inside are essentially unchanged in this improve.
