Buy A Digital Camera

Can the G2 be attached with external microphone like GH1?

Could anyone be helpful as to tell me where I could get a 2.5mm Mic for this camera?

This camera produces some of the most colorful images I have ever seen.The swiveling LCD screen for video recording is a nice touch. Some of the higher resolution modes seem fuzzy.

@WhatDigitalCamera thats exactly what i’m talkin about it dont matter it’s a digital version of an SLR using different technology to acheive the same thing just coz it’s not got a mirror and no optical viewfinder means nothing a digital SLR doesnt have to tick the same box’s.. coz it’s not a 35mmm SLR it’s a DIGITAL Camera .
Optical viewfinders-people dont use and aren’t nescasarily needed.
Mirror- so what.
like i say pretentious.

@davemccarthymedia No it isn’t. No reflex mirror, no optical viewfinder.

It is a DSLR dont be a pretentious geek.

@Posthuman7 Panasonic Lumix GH1

what camera are you using to record this video?

@butucgras i have the same cameras in mind but with an added nikon d5000 in the equation, and i’ve been researching all three and have been drawn more to the nikon.

I just bought this cam one week ago – I love it! I never shot a photograph on ISO 6400, so with all cameras I used before noise was never an issue. When Panasonic released the G2 I thought the touchscreen would just be a gadget – but it makes sense. Great camera!

@ItsMiffyTheRubber probably the canon

@paudie200 A P&S or compact SLR may be good only in close range with? good light. With sports you are quite a distance away from the action most of the time, not? to mention? difficult light when it is dark or overcast.
A Canon 7D and a EF 300mm f4L IS USM lens should serve well for general perpose sports photography at a more affordable price. This will give you 8 fps with max aperture of f4 @ 300mm
Pro tele lenses with? fast apertures are often needed for sports and are really expensive.

hey can you help me making a decision ..I’ll really appreciate.. witch cam will you choose better, the PANASONIC LUMIX G2 or CANON EOS 500D ….thank u

Hey guys!

Love reviews. Just one question. I am thinking about buying a slr/dslr. I want take photos at matches and such so the timing is the issue. I want to know how to find out how fast a camera can take the photo from the time i press the button. What should i look out for? and do you think the lumix g2 is a good buy?

@ItsMiffyTheRubber

Neither, I’d pick a GF1 and use the hacked firmware to film 1080p

Which is better Cannon Eos 550ds or Lumix G2?

talking abt versatility

Is it full manual in video mode?

Is this a re-upload? I’m sure i’ve seen this before..

awesome
