No mode dial? Bundled f/2.5 is too slow for my purpose... actually the 20mm f1.7 is the only interesting thing for m43 for me.... the look is like a GF1+LX5 anak luar nikah and call it gut feel (we'll know in some hours)... but it feels as though its a rush job to compete with NEX head on.... which is stupid as it's still m43 vs APS-C (and a good one) sensor.

The GF1 always have a leica-like appeal to it.. but GF2 from first look... is like a typical consumer camera.

So disappointed sad.gif

Ya tat's wat I thought too. laugh.gif

Looks like the mode dial is going to be a soft one, touch screen type perhaps ... hmm.gif

There is also an EVF in the small body sweat.gif

The reason I said that is that maybe I expected too much from Panasonic (like as in not raping the reputation of GF1).

In the 43rumors site poll... 63% voted that they won't buy the GF2. That's even more hate than when the NEX was announced tongue.gif

In the meantime (looks like its gonna be quite some time), I'll still have to lug my dslr around.

Ya kind of over expectation from Panasonic ... they are going too much into 3D/HD video recording instead of just concentrate on photography.

Maybe Olympus can do something better in E-P3 or E-PL2 ? brows.gif

Just bought a white GF1 with the 20mm.
Wondering why the thumbwheel thingy so rough and noisy when you turn it?
Is yours like that too?

Thank goodness the PASM dial is more rigid than LX3 which IMHO kinda loose and can easily move.

It shows GF1 have a very solid build !! You won't want a loosy and cheap plastic feeling right? laugh.gif
