Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1
“This is an excellent option for anyone looking for dSLR performance and quality but don’t want to lug around a big camera.”
We’ve added another DIL camera review to our Reviews Matrix: the Panasonic GF1 [Specs], a Micro Four-Thirds Digital Interchangeable Lens (DIL) camera. Take a DSLR, remove its mirror, pentaprism/pentamirror and viewfinder, and replace them with a high resolution LCD and electronic viewfinder (so you still are able to see exactly what the lens is seeing) — and you get a DIL: a “mirrorless DSLR” in a more compact and lightweight form. The DIL cameras are the next generation DSLRs and all the rage currently.
Steve’s Digicams has published their review of the Panasonic GF1. They compare the GF1 against the traditional DSLR in image quality and performance.
