  • Even in "mute" mode
  • Price is high for an easytouse camera
  • With large 14140mm lens
  • Camera is heavy
  • Needs a tripod
  • Big for a mirrorless interchangeablelens camera
  • No inbody image stabilization
  • Featureladen to the point of feeling bloated. Pricey
  • Annoying AVCHD-imposed limitations for video
  • No way to lock AF area on touch screen
  • Middling battery life
  • 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)
  • Plasticy finish
  • Image processing from ISO 1600 still leaves detail to be desired

  • Full-HD-Video mit enormem Funktionsumfang, Schwenkdisplay mit Touchfunktion, Richtig schnell mit passendem Objektiv
  • Akku-Laufzeit, Fotoqualität ab ISO 1.600
  • Eine bessere DSLR oder Systemkamera für den Videoeinsatz als die GH2 hatten wir bislang nicht in Händen. Für die Panasonic sprechen richtig viele Funktionen, durchdachte Einstellmöglichkeiten und eine überzeugende Video-Bildqualität. Allerdings kann die K...

  • Ob Bildqualität oder Autofokus – so manche kompakte spiegellose Systemkamera bietet mittlerweile ebenso herausragende Leisungen wie gute SLRs. Kein Wunder, schließlich stecken in beiden Modellklassen dieselben gro­ßen Sensoren, und die sind nun einmal ...

  • Die GH2 bietet die beste Videoqualität aller derzeit (12/2010) verfügbaren Video-DSLRs und dies bei einer Sensorgröße die optimal für Filmlook-Effekte (gestaffelte Schärfentiefe) geeignet ist. Trotz ihrer kleinen Größe und geringen Gewichts bietet sie ...

  • gute Bildqualität, kompakt und robust, hohe Erweiterbarkeit, guter Touchscreen, hervorragende Videoaufnahme
  • verhältnismäßig teuer
  • Gegenüber der Lumix GH1 hat sich einiges getan. So muss ein echtes Nachfolgemodell aussehen. Panasonic liefert mit der Lumix DMC-GH2 ein insgesamt hervorragendes Gerät und stellt einmal mehr unter Beweis, dass Systemkameras auch für Profis eine Überle...
