Pros Easy to Use, Compact, Great Design
Cons None submitted
Recommended it? Yes

The latest as of now in the Inter Changeable lense cameras....the GF2 strikes out as one of the most compact of them all. Amongst other things the GF2 has touchscreen controls, 1920x1080 HD movie mode etc.

So how did my images turn out? Pretty good! For everyone who's naturally afraid... Read full review »
