  • Slow continuous shooting when continuous AF is enabled
  • Live view not available during continuous bursts above 3fps
  • Noisier images than good APS-C models at high sensitivities

  • 2.5mm mic jack (3.5mm preferred)

  • Image processing from ISO 1600 still leaves detail to be desired

  • Grand-angle 28 mm, Bel écran tactile, Bon piqué d'image en 1080i
  • Prise micro trop petite (2,5 mm), Autofocus peu rapide (mais silencieux), Sensibilité très moyenne, Mode 24p peu utile, Pas de zoom progressif
  • Le GH2 fournit une qualité HD remarquable en termes de piqué, valorisée par un grand-angle. L'autofocus pompe un peu sur les mouvements et la prise micro méritait bien une fiche de 3,5 mm. On peut néanmoins obtenir des films de très bonne qualité....

  • très grande qualité des images, tant photo que vidéo, vidéo Full HD, écran de visualisation tactile et pivotant et d'une grande qualité d'affichage, compacité relative, niveau élevé de personnalisation, efficacité de la reconnaissance visages, viseur numérique (avec correcteur dioptrique).
  • complexité relative des menus, prise micro externe 2,5 mm.
  • Sorti l'année dernière le Lumix GH1, un appareil photo numérique au format Micro 4/3, délivrait déjà des vidéos Full HD. Panasonic trace son sillon sur le terrain des appareils hybrides, avec le nouveau GH2, dont l'écran pivotant est cette fois-ci tact...

  • Vidéo: du vrai 50i et 24p,  Ecran orientable rotatif et tactile,  Rafale de 5 i/s en photo,  Prix d'appel intéressant,  Plus maniable qu'un reflex en vidéo,  Meilleur autofocus
  • Toujours assez cher face à un reflex,  Panasonic aura-t-il réussi à améliorer les performances photo
  • Le GH2 est une franche réussite tant il est bon dans tous les domaines. A part peut-être la photo de sport, où le fait de perdre le sujet de vue pendant un court laps de temps peut être handicapant (phénomène compensé par les 5 images/s), le GH2 se p...

  • Abstract:  Alors qu'une définition de 12 Mpx sur un capteur 17,3 x 13 mm (format 4/3) semblait être le bon chiffre, Panasonic surprend un peu tout le monde avec un nouveau capteur MOS entassant pas moins de 18,3 millions de photodiodes pour délivrer des images en...

  • Abstract:  Die Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH2 ist keine besonders kompakte Systemkamera - dieses Kriterium deckt die GF-Familie des Herstellers ab. Dafür wartet das Modell mit einigen Funktionen auf, die in einem kleineren Gehäuse kaum realisierbar gewesen wären. Mehr d...

  • TouchtoFokus im Videomodus, durchdachte Bedienung, ausgezeichnete Videoqualität, dreh und schwenkbares Display,
  • mäßige Akkulaufzeit, TouchAutofokus lässt sich nicht abschalten, AVCHDCodec schränkt Videofunktion ein,
  • Die Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH2 ist eine kompakte Systemkamera, die mit toller Bedienung, flotten Reaktionen und umfassender Ausstattung überzeugt. Wer hohen Wert darauf legt, konsistent gute Fotos zu schießen, sollte allerdings besser im RAW-Format fotog...

  • Überragende Ausstattung, Hervorragend als Videokamera geeignet (aber Schabgeräusche beim Zoomen), Insgesamt sehr gute Bildqualität (bis ISO 800), Kompakte Maße und geringes Gewicht, Sehr schneller KontrastAF
  • Rauschunterdrückung ab ISO 1.600 zu forsch, Leichte Probleme bei der Farbwiedergabe (Grünstich), Nur kurze SerienbildBursts, sehr langsam im Dauerlauf
  • Mit der Lumix DMC-GH2 hat Panasonic eine Kamera abgeliefert, die rundum imponiert. Nicht nur die Bildqualität weiß unterm Strich zu überzeugen – es sind vor allem auch die überragenden Videofähigkeiten, die die GH2 ziemlich konkurrenzlos dastehen lassen....
