Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 photos

Though it lacks a hot shoe or option for a viewfinder, the GF3 is a compact, attractive camera with a very cleverly designed flash; you can hold it back with your finger to bounce the light or simply to reduce the intensity of the light hitting the subject.

The well-designed user interface combines usable virtual controls with physical ones so that you can use whichever you're most comfortable with.

The camera is pretty thin when equipped with a pancake prime lens.

If you're not comfortable with small cameras, the shallow grip probably won't help much.
