Super-fast AF performance, Touch AF and Touch Shutter control, Intuitive touch-screen controls
Hot-shoe connection has been removed, Pop-up flash a bit delicate, It's not cheap
While we’d want to have a closer look at a full production sample it does look at this stage like Panasonic could have another winner on its hands with the GF3. It certainly looks good and has plenty of style. Better still, it’s also easy to use, offer...

Abstract: You're ready for a camera upgrade. You've outgrown the best point-and-shoot cameras, but a DSLR is a little excessive. Luckily for you, there's a middle ground. Mirrorless, interchangeable lens cameras—even affordable ones—are getting really, really good....
Quality: I enjoyed the quality of the GF3's shots, sharp and accurately coloured.Why you'd buy the GF3: it's real, real small; easy to fall in love with the AF function; you want to use Leica lenses.Why you wouldn't: you want to shoot stills while recordi...
Compact, Many lenses available, Speedy performance, Touch-screen display,
Slightly soft kit lens, So-so low-light performance, Large kit lens, No hot shoe or accessory port,

Panasonic has consistently produced some strong video-capable cameras that use the Micro Four Thirds format. The GF3 showed promise in our low light video tests—where it beat out the competition by a significant margin—and we liked the way the camc...
Comparing the GF3 to its predecessors is a bit like looking at one of those “history of man” posters in reverse. Where the GF1 features enthusiast-level amounts of control, physical dials, and customizable options, the GF2 and now GF3 feature intellig...
Very speedy autofocus for a Compact System Camera, putting it on par with some DSLRs, 12MP Micro Four Thirds sensor produces good image quality at lower ISOs, especially from RAW, Gorgeous and responsive 3-inch LCD touchscreen, Good quality 14mm f/2.5 ...
