Panasonic's ultra-compact MFT camera with touchscreen — one of the smallest interchangeable-lens cameras of its era.
The Panasonic Lumix GF2 launched in 2010 as one of the world's smallest interchangeable-lens cameras. It used a 12.1MP Micro Four Thirds Live MOS sensor in a compact body dominated by a 3-inch touchscreen, targeting photographers stepping up from compact cameras.
Image quality is decent for MFT of its era — clean images to ISO 800 with acceptable noise at ISO 1600. Touch-based AF on the rear screen was innovative for 2010. 3fps burst. 720p HD video only — no Full HD. Contrast-detect AF adequate for general use.
Ultra-compact body at 265g — remarkably small for an interchangeable-lens camera. 3-inch touchscreen dominates the rear — minimal physical buttons. Built-in flash. No EVF. Micro Four Thirds mount. SD card slot. No hot shoe on most variants.
Very cheap used. The lack of EVF and limited controls make it feel more like a touchscreen compact. The GF3 was even smaller, the GF7 added selfie screens. Any modern MFT camera is dramatically better. An interesting piece of camera history for understanding the MFT system's evolution.
