Pocket cameras not always easy on the pocket book. Been following Panasonic Lumix cameras for awhile. Don’t own one but maybe some day…..
I still wouldn’t trade it in for a DSLR…. yet.

With image quality that rivals capable D-SLRs and a body not much larger than a super-zoom camera, the 12.1-megapixel Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 ($899.95 direct, with lens) is the most compact model in Panasonic’s line-up of Micro Four Thirds cameras. Panasonic’s first two entries into the space, the $799 Lumix DMC-G1 and the $1,499 GH1, weren’t much smaller than traditional D-SLRs. The GF1 is more comparable in size to the $800 Olympus E-P1, which features great image quality but a painfully slow autofocus. The GF1 doesn’t perform as well as the E-P1 or D-SLR competitors in low-light conditions (ISO 1600 and higher), but in brighter shooting situations, image quality is top-notch.
