  • Relatively compact for its class, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 delivers excellent performance and good-to-great photo quality
  • It's missing features like a tilting LCD, EVF option, and stereo audio capability that some competitors offer
  • The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 offers the type of performance and photo quality in a relatively small design many point-and-shoot graduates will like.

  • Small size, affordable, fast autofocus
  • No physical mode dials, no hotshoe
  • The Panasonic Lumix GF3 delivers true quality in an ultra-small package. Taking a different and more consumer-led path from the original and subsequent GF-series releases, the GF3's lack of a hotshoe mount and mode dials, exclusion of provisions for a ...

  • It would be a mistake to consider the Panasonic GF3 as “just” a fancy compact camera as it can truly be a DSLR replacement for a lot of people, including me. To be fair, it also has the price of a DSLR, so it's normal that we expect the same level of perf...

  • High quality (though aging) sensor capable of excellent raw file output, JPEGs show slightly improved high ISO performance (compared to the GF2), Improved skin tone rendering in JPEGs (compared to the GF2), Well-implemented touchscreen interface, Fast-focusing AF system (for its class), AF point can be positioned along the edge of the frame, Good variety of 'Photo Styles' color presets for stil
  • No EVF port, No flash hotshoe, No rear click dial, Smaller body size makes hand-held use of larger zoom lenses awkward, Mono microphone (instead of stereo) for video recording, Positioning of pop-up flash is more susceptible to producing red-eye and lens-barrel shadow, Some lenses (including 14-140mm and 20mm f/1.7) extend below camera base, fouling tripod plate, No flash exposure compensation,
  • The GF3 is a satisfying camera to use that is small and light enough to carry around all day. Its 12MP Micro Four Thirds sensor, though showing its age, is capable of producing lovely images that will be a revelation to users migrating from compact se...

  • This camera takes fine photos and is an entry into the evergrowing Panasonic/Olympus micro four thirds system. Auto focus is lightning fast and the touch screen, now spreading across all the Panasonic models, is the very best of its type.
  • The lack of accessible controls on the body will be disturbing for enthusiasts and traditionalists. However the touch screen does give instant access to the most frequently used controls
  • The GF3 is around $300 more expensive than the Olympus E-PM1 and it is hard to see what the extra money buys. The Olympus has an external socket for accessories such as an EVF and stereo microphone. It has a hot shoe and comes with an external flash in th...
