[ Rumormill ] First image of Panasonic GF2 spotted

[ziggy]

The GF2 is not for me. I'll stick to my GF1 as I am no great fan of touch screens - can't see in bright sunlight, possible accidental changes in settings. Also 2nd curtain flash and +/- flash compensation functions removed.

What I would like is a GF1 with a built-in VF like a rangefinder, and better high ISO performance. The GF2 seems designed for the PS upgraders, not the enthusiast.

Then you should wait for the GP-2 but it might be costly.

Are you referring to the GH2? There is no GP2, yet.

The long rumored GP-2 will have a viewfinder built-in like a rangefinder.

First time I am hearing that there is a GP2. Care to share the links/websites?

The rumour mill... do a search

...Thus, it’s the GF1 type camera that’s where the action will be. We’ll actually get two variants: a lower level replacement for the GF1 (call it the GF-2 [actually announced a week after I wrote that line]) and a higher level supplement (call it the GP-2). The lower end continues the current 12mp sensors (updated slightly), the upper end gets the GH2 sensor.....
