Ideal as an upgrade for compact camera owners or as a way of travelling lighter for experienced SLR shooters, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 Compact System Camera with 14-42mm Zoom Lens provides tons of creative scope without weighing you down!

Offered here in a smart black finish, this 12.1 mp camera boasts a powerful and evolved range of features, and is a worthy successor to the previous GF1 model. The Lumix DMC-GF2 delivers stunning 1080i 60fps Full HD video and boasts a built-in stereo microphone as well as offering numerous other refinements. Its generous 3" TFT anti-reflective screen features touch-sensitive control with intuitive operation via a fully customisable Quick Menu system.

Also included in the sleek Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 Compact System Camera is support for 3D imagery with the optional F-FT012 lens (sold separately); an accurate 144-zone multi-pattern metering system; full control of exposure with modes ranging from full manual to a wide selection of scene modes; 2.6 fps continuous shooting; and dedicated user-friendly i-Auto and Movie buttons conveniently positioned on the top plate.

The Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF2 is accompanied here by the LUMIX G VARIO 14-42mm f3.5-5.6 ASPH MEGA O.I.S. Zoom Lens, which includes built-in image stabilisation and an advanced optical design for pin-sharp performance. In 35mm terms this lens has a 28-84mm equivalent focal length, which is a great walkabout zoom range enabling you to shoot anything from a wide-angle scenic picture to a portrait.
