The GX1 is the first camera we've tested with the new Panasonic 14-42 mm X lens. While the lens has the same tech specs as the firm's standard 14-42 mm lens, this new X-series model is incredibly compact. It's the first 'pancake zoom' lens we've seen...

The more we use the Panasonic touch screen system the more we like it. The ultrafast auto focus means that a light touch on the subject area on the screen takes a perfectly focused and exposed picture every time.
