With gf2 coming out, should I consider gf1 still?

why le? lolz... are they the same thing, only gf2 is more of a simplified version of gf1 without major changes in technology?

i normally go to dpreview for extensive and detailed and non bias review, but they only have preview

The new 14mm pancake for gf2 compare to 20mm how is it? If I wan buy gf2, should I get pàncake or kit lens? Newbie to photography =)

I see, then the 14mm pancake compare with. 20mm how?

yeah.. i think pancake lens is like a prime lens, where the focal length is fixed. Normally if twin kit for gf2 is how much? Hoping to get 20mm+14-42mm twin kit. How about epl-2? How does it fares with gf2? I saw good reviews, summore cheaper abit ><

After looking thru the forum, much ppl selling gf2 with 14mm and 14-42mm kit lens only.. >< if paired with 20mm is kinda exp tho... dunno worth it or not.. how much normally ppl sell their kit-lens? with 20mm lens+body the price is higher than 14mm+14-42mm lens+body. I scare 14mm is not good enuf for me as i wanna shoot indoor/low-light photo..

should i get only the kit lens and the body? then when i got the money i will get the 20mm pancake lens. Or should i just get the 14mm pancake+kit lens? becos the 14mm is kinda good when i wanna do P&S, but need to fork out extra 400 for twin lens.

oh kk... becos i dunno i should save the rm400 for 20mm or just use it to get 14mm one.. Becos my application is more towards getting good photo under low light condition where the 20mm pancake is good at. But the pancake is like rm1.2k.. need save alot to get it haha..

oh haha... probably i will just get the twin lens, 14mm is good becos its compact enuf .. then how is epl2? any improvement over epl1 other than size?

Ya, but no direct comparison with gf2, same price range also... dunno which to choose

panasonic lens more expensive than olympus one? Olympus epl-2 package not bad, got super zoom lens, but i think pancake should be better choice. Anyone who are using epl-2, why you guys choose olympus over panny gf2?

I saw about gf2 having problem in high ISO application. Does high ISO means low light condition? I scare the noise is unbearable >< review said that epl2 is better at high ISO.. so hard to choose...

oh.. so basically a low light lens like 20mm panny pancake should be good enuf for nice low light photography right?? Dunno how often i gonna use it for low light condition, but i am kinda annoyed with high noise when low light, especially most of the compact cam.. So actually if can be better than normal cam, not much noise then ok edi..

Oh... like tat maybe I have to look into dslr.. but the size factor I'd somehow a concern for me too... any low light sample u guys can share?

Off topic abit, how about next series? I saw tat they have larger sensor.
Do they perform as well as their dslr counterpart ?

I see it wasn't that bad, it looked ok for such ISO for me.. how about the show girl photo? Taken with m43?

Kk.. I should be getting compact interchangeable afterall, not fancy big black thing haha.. just need to decide between them... how about gf2? Still worth to get?

kl where still got stock for gf1 other color than black?

Just got my white gf1 20mm Btw, how much does a kit zoom lens cost? Or anyone willing to let go their kit lens?
