Seb Farges shot this video at le Salon de la photo in Paris where the Panasonic GF2 has been presented. He also interviewed Luc Saint-Elie from Panasonic (a very nice person!).

Point and shoot = point on the display where to focus and the cameras shoots!
Taking photos by touching the screen, holding it by just 1 hand, no IS…
= blurred photos.
Btw: Did u know that 720 is better than average fullHD?
Common .. even consumer is not that dumb..
But I like that guy:] <- no sarcasm !
Not necessarily blurred photos over 1/250 even w/o IS and holding by 1 hand.
“Taking photos by touching the screen”
It has a shutter release button too. 🙂
I agree on the guy though, I think he could convince me to buy anything.
Thanks god it’s still there 🙂 In future they will remove it too :p
seems at least to have full manual video controls – good decision.
How can you tell it has full manual video controls?
I think the GF2 plus pancake will be a great combo and hopefully value (because of high lens price) if the kit is priced right.
One of the videos/some of the images indicated that the pancake lens will be all black rather than black with the grey color. I think this is a big improvement. I wish I could have gotten my 20 mm f1.7 in black and my 17mm f2.8 in black as is offered now by olympus. It is the little things in life.
The video quality from the GH2 and the Voigtlander looks excellent!
Admin, do you know if there will be an updated higher resolution evf? (compatible with gf1)
thanks
I’m thinking that a next-gen “optional EVF” will be release sometime soon… Couldn’t a third party make one? Are the ports for the LX5/GF2/etc… all the same?
Yes, and I was very impressed filming with the Voigtlander ! 🙂
i have asked in a couple of forums if a third party could/would make them, or if a modder is somewhere modding them, but no answer yet.
I’ve just post a better quality of the film now 🙂
Which lens was used during the interview / the face shots?
I used for the ITW / the face shots my hacked GH1 with a c-mount Fujia 35mm 1.7 (30$ on ebay) 🙂
