Panasonic LX5 and GF2 Tangled!

The machines you see are a bit outdated I have been using GF1 for a year and a half and now I have changed Oba EM5 pays attention to weight and carrying You can look at the LX7 of the card The largest lens The scenery and portraits are good Typical tourist aircraft Bare metal within 3000 yuan.

Focus on performance and expansion Take a look at the mirrorless GX1 supports new lenses, expands more functions and supports the latest external viewfinder bare metal 2600+ preferably with 20 prime lenses **2300+

LX5 and GF2 advise you not to consider **The difference is not very big, if you like cards and have no budget problems, you can take a look at Fujifilm's X100 and Sigma's DP2 A sideshaft A high image quality.

Panasonic LX5 imaging color cast is serious, it is not recommended to buy it.

GF2 imaging restoration is pretty good.

M43 is not necessarily inferior to APS-C, and in the past, Olympus' OM-D EM5 was rated as the best mirrorless by foreign authorities**. Olympus's entry-level mirrorless mirrorless defeated APS-C's Nikon D3000, Canon 1000D and other entry-level SLRs in the same ** evaluation.

GF5 does have a high cost performance, and there are more lens options, but the high sensitivity difference is a problem that Panasonic has not solved, and Samsung is also the same problem. If I were you, you would consider JD.com's Olympus EPM2,2299element,The picture quality is basically the same as EM5,The cost performance is invincible。

If you don't believe me, you can take a look at my screenshot:

See how to use it. I think if I record my life, it will definitely be enough, and I can make some good films in GF3.

(The GF5 that I want to think of is a change of hands, I bought it during the Spring Festival, and the shutter with warranty does not exceed 1000 times, and I want to buy it (because I want to change it to 600D).)

The difference is significant. The biggest difference is that they belong to different categories within digital cameras: the former is a digital camera with a pure card machine and a digital camera, while the latter is a digital camera that is close to a single-lens reflex camera.

The former can't change lenses, and the image is relatively slow from focus to storage, and there is often the distress of "pressing the shutter at the moment of starting, and the first shot is a hurdle heroic". The latter can change different lenses like a professional camera, which is basically "press the shutter at the moment of starting, and the first shot is the athlete starting the second step", and the reaction speed is about a second, which is only a little slower than a single-lens reflex camera, and there is almost no difference in life.

However, the former has three biggest advantages: first, the first effect is better, because the image sensor (equivalent to the film of the film camera) is greater than the latter; the second is to shoot under the same dark conditions, the former is higher than the latter; The third is that the three-inch display screen on the back of the former can be flipped, and it is easier to hold high and shoot low when making big moves.

To sum up, there are two points: first, if you want to improve the level of photography, use the former, after all, it makes sense that it is called a "single-lens reflex backup machine" - it is more suitable for slow posing and pondering the photographic technology and creative level. Second, if you want to usually travel and go shopping with it, I recommend the latter, because GF2 has it when you raise your hand, you will not lose interesting scenes and small details, and you can record your experience and experience more faithfully.

Now you understand, it's up to you to delve in which direction you want to delve into. Anyway, I bought the gf2, which is too convenient in life, and it doesn't delay the composition to find the light and frame it. It doesn't matter if the picture quality is almost there.,I'm not going to put the ** to 10 inches.,7 inches is enough for gf2 to play.。

As for changing the lens - the mirrorless lenses are better than 3000, it is better to grit your teeth and add money to buy a mid-range SLR, the lens is cumbersome, large and heavy, I have always been a 14mm fixed focus when I go shopping and traveling, and nothing is delayed.

A good point for mirrorless. And in the future, when you become proficient, you can change the lens when you need to.

GF2 is more cost-effective, and the follow-up playability is also high.

The difference is quite large. The main reason is that the size of the sensor varies greatly.

Actually, to be honest, I think the portrait problem of the LX5 is exaggerated, you can solve this problem by adjusting the parameters or mode, and each camera has its own advantages, and the scenery of the LX5 is not to be said

GF2,,It's also good,,But the follow-up lens change or something,,It's a little troublesome.。

This is a parameter comparison.

1. Generally speaking, the size of the sensor is the decisive factor for the image quality, the GF2 sensor is 4 3-inch LiveCMOS, and the LX5 is 1-inch CCD, and the former area is more than 4 times that of the latter. In theory, GF2 should be much superior. But I haven't been exposed to GF2, so it's hard to say whether the actual effect is so bad.

General reaction,LX5The picture quality is already very good,How can you actually analyze it yourself from the forum works;

2. The LX5 minimum focal length is equivalent to the minimum focal length equivalent to 28mm. Therefore, in terms of phase angle, LX5 is wider than GF2.

3. In terms of maximum aperture: LX5 is wide-angle (telephoto), GF2 is wide-angle) telephoto), so the low-light performance of LX5 is definitely better than GF2.

4. The LX5 is a LEICA certified lens, and the GF2 is Panasonic's own lens.

All in all, I personally recommend LX5

Brother will tell you the answer you want! I've been researching for days!

First of all, definitely choose LX5

Reason: 1 What you are struggling with must be the size of the sensor, and the sensor of GF3 is indeed a lot larger, which is true.

Why not buy the GF3, because he is monoelectric and needs lens support. This means that you need a macro lens for macro shots, a wide-angle lens for wide angles, and a telephoto lens for telephoto shots.

Comparison: LX5

Macro 1cmgf3, macro 14cm (no macro can be said), wide angle LX524mmGF3

28mm, LX5 portability wins, handling LX5 wins, LX5 ISO minimum 80, GF3

ISO minimum 160

This means that when the light is sufficient, the GF3 cannot open the wide aperture, and the LX5 maximum aperture Leica lens.

GF3 sleeve maximum aperture small pitiful).

And personally, I have always felt that Panasonic live

The sensor of MOS is not as sensitive as that of CCD.

LX5 is already the king of machines, don't hesitate!

It depends on what your needs are

I use the GF2 dual lens set myself, and I feel that the 14 prime head is very good during use, and the large aperture is more obvious indoors and when the background blur is needed, and this head is the original Japanese head. However, the GF2's touch screen and the operation of sliding the bokeh background are not as magical as in the commercial.

The imaging of the 14-42 zoom head is weaker, the plastic feeling is very strong, the zoom ring rotation is also quite jerky (compared to the NEX-5), and the portability is not so good, domestic.

Back to the topic, the LX5 series is more classic, I played with a friend, the size is smaller than the GF2, it is the best portable camera, and the imaging angle (for non-enthusiasts like me) is honestly not very different from the GF2. Wide angle、Aperture or something is enough.,It's not bad to go straight out of raw if you want to do post-production.。 It will always be much more convenient to travel with a built-in zoom (no need to consider what lens you use to have good image quality or what lens you can use to zoom).

To put it bluntly, GF2 and LX5 are very life-oriented cameras, we are not artists, and taking pictures is not anyone's equipment can be good**, light and shadow are the soul of photography. There is also a saying that it doesn't matter what head is hung on the camera, what matters is the head behind the camera.

To sum up, from the perspective of ease of use, portability, and economy, we recommend the LX5, which is a very interesting camera when used well, and the shooting mode dial is very close to the SLR, which is convenient for future advancement

Rice is pure original, welcome**

Beginners just need to buy an LX5, you first practice your skills.
