Panasonic put the Micro in Four Thirds with the smallest Micro Four Thirds camera currently available! Find out if Panasonic has gone too far - is it too small for it's own good?
The GF3 is Panasonic’s most portable and easiest to use Micro Four Thirds G-series camera yet, but it comes at a slight cost, missing out on some of
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 is one of the better Micro Four Thirds cameras we've seen for recording video.
The Panasonic GF3 got its beach body together this year, slimming down even more than last year's GF2.
Extremely compact and luxurious, takes gorgeous photos and videos but currently looks overpriced next to the Sony NEX range
The Panasonic GF3: the most diminutive member of the company's small interchangeable lens camera lineup.
With the launch of Panasonic’s Lumix DMC-GF3, the company’s smallest interchangeable-lens camera just got even more compact and lighter while maintaining a strong set of features. Surely there has to be compromises?
We review Panasonic's latest addition to its Micro Four Thirds G-series.
The GF1 was a compact-shaped camera aimed squarely at enthusiasts. Two generations on, the GF3 uses the same Micro Four Thirds lens mount and a similar 12-megapixel sensor, but it’s much more of a point-and-shoot

Micro four third cameras have been around for some time now. This segment of cameras have been dominated mainly by the likes of Olympus and Panasonic. With the
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3
The Panasonic Lumix GF3 is dramatically different from the GF-cameras that have come before, and represents a significant breakthrough for the Micro Four Thirds system. It's sure to delight some users, while disappointing others. Here's why.
If this is the way it’s going, I’m all for it: smaller, interchangeable lens cameras, with decently-sized sensors and sophisticated image processing internals. Panasonic and Sony seem to be waging the war with their Micro Four Thirds models and this is another missile hurled at (IMHO) the oversize DSLRS, with or without flipping mirrors! The […]
