Testurteil: "3.5 out of 5 stars"
Test: Einzeltest: Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 (with 14-42mm lens, black)
Zitat: Pro: + The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 delivers excellent performance for its class, in a relatively compact, comfortable design with a streamlined, usable touch-screen interface implementation.
Contra: - Panasonic´s JPEG processing remains subpar for this class of camera, and the GF2´s inability to lock the focus area from accidental screen presses-a flaw of all the company´s touch-screen ILCs-remains a huge point of frustration. It also has a disappointingly banal feature set, including a lack of manual controls during video capture. Also, an EVF costs extra, and the battery doesn´t last very long.
Though we still really like Panasonic´s GF series, there are several trade-offs to take into account before you buy the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2. Its raw-format images look extremely good, but JPEG shooters looking for best-possible photo quality may get frustrated by image artifacts. And while lots of photographers will appreciate its relatively compact but functional design and zippy performance--though still not for action shooting--there´s nothing special about its feature set, including underpowered video capture.
