Panasonic Lumix GX1 hands-on review

Panasonic Lumix GX1 – autofocus and controls

Panny are gunning for the GX1 to fill that second camera spot on enthusiast's shelves and for that reason there's plenty of manual controls up top, alongside the pop up flash, and on the rear with customisable settings via the buttons and in the software.

The autofocus definitely doesn't mess about at a blistering 0.9s which Panasonic reckons is the fastest for any compact system camera but we'll reserve judgement on performance for a full review.
