Prefer to previous budget dslr’s I have owned... Great pics on auto and articulated screen with very quick touch focus and large electronic viewfinder.14-42 standard lens can be a little sticky using zoom with video so check before you buy if this lens is offered.Also battery could last a bit longer so wise to carry a spare. For me-neither of these minor issues detract from 5 star rating

I sorely missed the viewfinder on my current ...camera which had only a viewing screen supposedly bright enough for outdoor use, Sadly as soon as the sky was cloudless the screen image was too dim to see. In the G3 I have found a camera that allows me to work easily Outdoor’s with with a viewfinder just like my trustyOM 10filmcamere but also gives the advantage of in camera instantly available editing on a decent size screen. Well done the LUMIX!!

Like most cameras, you need to read the manual to get the b...est out of it. This has all versatility of a DSLR but is lighter, inconspicuous and fast. The poor man's Leica and still heaps better than the next generation mirrorless equivalens barging onto the scene. Never was a great fan of those barn-door viewing screens as these are asking to be snapped off during an inauspicious moment but, hey-ho, can't have everthing.

Really pleased with the G3 body, originally b...ought it for spares for my current battered and bruised G3. Turns out that it's way too good for spares, so I will use it and keep my old one for spares. Genuine bargain, all accessories and camera body in great condition. With grateful thanks, Stu.

This is a very good camera ( what I call a ""walkin...g about" camera). It is a very useful addition to my stable of cameras, very easy to use and very mobile. A very good choice.
