Much bigger is the list of what the camera has lost. Minimum ISO climbs from 100 to 160, the rear click dial has gone, as has the stereo mic of the GF2. The flash is now top center, but the hotshoe has gone, meaning you can’t add an accessory viewfinder or a flash. WIRED.com
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, offers some innovative features and, above all, is capable of delivering great results. Competitively priced at a penny under £500, we wouldn’t be surprised if the GF3 keeps Panasonic on top of the micro system pile for the foreseeable future. trustedreviews.com
