Panasonic finally produced a camera that is compact, easy to use, has 720p HD video, and takes great photos in low light. <br /> <br />I used my GF1 with the 14-45 lens this weekend to shoot photos and videos of a rock climbing competition. There were a lot of tough areas to shoot because of the high contrast between the dark overhangs and bright sun light. The GF1 performed extremely well. <br /> <br />I had some problems focusing when going from extremely bright areas to extremely dark areas but that was due more to my lack of experience with this type of camera as opposed to poor focusing speed in the camera. <br /> <br />[...] Rating: 5 / 5 I am an active dad that was fed up with spending $300-$500 on point and shoot cameras and getting blurry or dark photos.

Amazing colors! It seems to me it is close to, if not, professional quality while not too complicated for beginners. I have yet to use the HD video option and this is one reason I chose to purchase this camera. Rating: 5 / 5 Excellent, highly functional camera and easy to use. Amazing colors!
