If you were looking at the Panasonic GF1 yesterday with lust in your eyes and excitement in your pants, you’ll be happy to know that local details have ben announced.
Landing in October, the GF1 will cost $1649 with one of two different kit lenses included – either a LUMIX G VARIO 14-45mm/F3.5-5.6 ASPH./MEGA O.I.S. lens or a LUMIX G 20mm/F1.7 ASPH lens.
Also landing in October are two new micro four-thirds lenses: a LEICA DG MACRO-ELMARIT 45mm/F2.8 ASPH/MEGA O.I.S macro lens with a 35mm equivalent of 90mm for $1549 and a LUMIX G 20mm/F1.7 ASPH pancake lens for $799.
It’s taken an age, but I think the micro four-thirds standard is actually starting to become a really attractive option…
