Type of camera/lens/accesories : Micro 4/3
Budget: RM 1400 - RM 1800
Your Location: Johor Bharu
Preferable brand : Panasonic
Type of photography u want to do : Product Photography, Daily Usage
Any specific models in mind? : GF2 or GF3
Any specific features u want? : Fast autofocus, 14mm lens, Manual Control

I have been jumping thoughts between the GF2 or GF3 for my girlfriend. We will soon be opening an online shawl store and I figure a Micro 4/3 is perfect for her. We are on a really tight budget and I'm wondering if both of these cameras work well under artificial lighting. From reviews online ISO 3200 is very usable.

I'm leaning more towars the GF2 since I don't really like the near buttonless GF3. I was wondering how is the touchscreen on both of these models? I'm planning tu buy a Fuji X100 for myself and does the GF2/GF3 complements the Fuji x100? As in let's say when I want to go out shooting with her, does the GF2/GF3 give as much manual freedom as the X100? I want her to learn as much about photography as possible (she's interested in it.)

GF3's m4/3 will not be the same with the APS-C sensor on X100. Sony NEX-5N does.

Well of course, what I meant was control wise, not sensor wise. I always read that GF3 has very user friendly controls, but are the controls too simplified?
