Hey Lumix fans, Pop Photo just published its review of the GH2.
The short: for the most part they raved about it. It received an awesome value (according to Pop Photo) of noise at its lowest ISO (1.1 for EXTREMELY low). Alas, like previous G's after 400 things turn ugly.
Resolution according to PP beat out Nikon's D7000 and Pentax K5 (also reviewed in the issue). I'm gonna guess that's at 4:3. So other aspect ratios may vary. (Somehow I don't think the GH2's 3:2 will beat the Nikon or K5 here but it's probably pretty close).
The EVF and CDAF also were well regarded. Still some issues with the blackout, while improved, during continuous shooting.
They liked the overall design (like Michael Reichmann did in LL) and gave it high marks for controls and access.
All in all not too shabby. A good read.
