Panasonic DMC G5KK Compact System 14 42mm

Panasonic DMC-G5KK 16 MP Compact System Camera with 14-42mm Zoom Lens and 3-Inch LCD (Black) (Electronics) This is a great camera. This is my first M4/3 camera after using Canon crop sensor DSLR for long time. As mentioned in many other reviews, this is a feature rich camera, which are also available in DSLR but not to be expected in entry level DSLR camera. Compare to Canon XS that I have, this camera stands its own in terms of picture quality. However due to kit lens I still fee canon is winning in terms of sharpness. I have a feeling Canon EFS kit lens is better than kit lens with G5. there are times when I am feeling pictures are slightly soft compared to Canon. But with good glass pictures quality can be much improved.

Another aspect where I feel this camera can improve is the white balance in indoor conditions. It has plenty of pre configured white balance setting but they don't work out of the box the way I want it. Tungsten bulb setting produced greenish yellow colors which is not appropriate. AWB is also something it can improve on. I adjust white balance on this camera manually way more than my Canon.

Video is great in this camera. Different format you can record is awesome. Overall this is a great camera. This camera is great option for one who is graduating from Point and Shoot camera to real photography. And also for those who don't want to carry big gears for DSLR but similar performance. This is ultimate bridge camera.
