Panasonic G1 review by Ben Long

A brand new review of the Panasonic G1 (yes, G-1, not a typo) has gone live! This was created by photographer and author Ben Long for MacWorld.com. This is a single page experiential review, so don't expect to find the dpreview type of charts and graphs and Imatests.

And some good news on the pricing front, the black G1 kit (w/14-45mm) has now dropped to $622 at Amazon, sold and shipped by Amazon. Or if you want to buy from third-party sellers, you can get it for $576 from 3rd-party seller "6ave".

Pocket Lint tests the Panasonic G1

Some digital camera are like wine, which is perhaps why Pocket Lint waited for this long to post their Panasonic G1 review. This is a short tech-blog type of a review, so don't look for never-ending dpreview-style charts and graphs or luxuries such as sample pictures :)

Photozone zones in on the Lumix G1

As they say, good things come to those who wait, and PhotoZone.de has a delivered a Panasonic G1 review, complete with technical analysis and full-size sample pictures for download and evaluation.

The conclusions are on the last page of the review, and they include a nice pros and cons table, along with a rather unique star rating system, which however, needs some sort of a legend since not everyone reading is intimately familiar with their star-rating system.

PS: Don't read anything into the review date ;-)
