The editors didn't like
Camera tends to slightly underexpose and clip highlights
Redeye a problem
Digital correction feature did not help
At least for me
Touch features don't add a lot to the shooting experience
Too easy to accidentally change focus area
Unremarkable continuous shooting mode
Movies created with AVCHD Lite codec are difficult to share and edit
Frame rate isn't true 60 fps
Motion JPEG movies have
Grip area is somewhat slick
Rear EVF protrudes far behind the camera
Making it harder to fit into small spaces
Kit lens has no IS switch (camera menu only)
Plastic mount
Lots of geometric distortion in uncorrected RAW at wide-angle
Which contribu...
Will take some time to learn all of the features
LCD is a little tough to see in direct sunlight
Price seems a little high
Touchscreen LCD is easy to smudge
Images a little noisier at midrange ISO sensitivities than they should be
Too easy to accidentally move focus points with touch screen
Out-of-camera JPEG color not as appealing as best competitors
New kit lens not as good as predecessor
ISO 6400 verging on the unusable
High ISO default noise reduction a bit too high
Dynamic range still not as good as best APS-C competitors
User interface looking a bit dated (and possibly a bit daunting to the first time user)
Abstract: Avec leurs capteurs minuscules et bourrés de pixels, les compacts et les bridges affichent des performances limitées. D’où l’idée d’utiliser un capteur de taille supérieure, sans pour autant...
Abstract: Fort séduisant, le Panasonic G2 est un hybride au format reflex qui semble tout à fait mature et donc à même de satisfaire de nombreux utilisateurs. Reste à choisir entre lui et un véritable reflex certes plus encombrant et plus lourd mais aussi plus universel...
Abstract: Partageant la même base, les G2 et G10 sont, comme le G1, des hybrides au format reflex mais avec une taille inférieure à celle d’un reflex grand public APS-C, la différence avec un reflex 4/3 devenant beaucoup plus ténue… Cette différence est toutefoi...
Stabilisation optique performante et bonne réactivité de l'appareil, Viseur électronique de qualité, Ecran LCD rotatif et tactile efficace, Mode iA pertinent et donc pratique, Bonne qualité du traitement du bruit électronique
Obturateur bruyant, Pas de vidéo HDTV 1080, ni de son stéréo en standard, Interface du boîtier dense et complexe pour un modèle grand public
Le Panasonic G2 ne souffre pas de défaut rédhibitoire. L'écran tactile et le mode vidéo viennent compléter une panoplie de fonctionnalités déjà intéressantes : viseur électronique de qualité, réactivité, stabilisation optique......
Abstract: Sur le papier, les deux nouveaux Micro 4/3 signés Panasonic G10 et G2 propose le même capteur de 12 Mpix et la même puce de traitement des images Venus Engine HD2. Pourtant, le premier n'est pas capable de délivrer des vidéos en AVCHD (encodage plus go...
Corpo compatto, robusto e ben assemblato con plastiche di qualità, Qualità d'immagine "da reflex" a bassi ISO, Vasta compatibilità di ottiche in continua crescita, Autofocus rapido ed efficace, anche durante le riprese, Mirino grande, fluido e con ottima
Qualche scatto nel display e nel mirino passando ad un ambiente più scuro, Il mirino fuoriesce troppo dal corpo riducendo inutilmente la trasportabilità, Resa ad alti ISO inferiore di almeno 1 stop rispetto le DSLR, Durata del video di soli 8 minuti in Mo
Presa quasi per gioco, la Panasonic DMC G2 mi ha conquistato. Compatta ed incredibilmente solida è un piacere da usare grazie ad un'ampia gamma di pulsanti di accesso diretto alle funzioni più utili. Al mirino elettronico dopo un po' si fa l'abitudine e ...
La Panasonic Lumix G2 è degna erede della capostipite del sistema Micro G; le innovazioni introdotte (fatto salvo l'aumento della sensibilità ISO fino al valore di 6400, un dato buono da scrivere sulla confezione e dare in pasto al marketing) sono di s...
Abstract: Panasonic da tempo adotta una strategia molto gradita a noi giornalisti: fa seguire l'annuncio dei nuovi prodotti fotografici con un press briefing approfondito, accompagnato dalla possibilità di provare sul campo le nuove macchine, anche se dotate di ...
