pro: GF3 is much smaller, and faster touch screen controls

Love love this camera! I paid $425 for the white set and sold the 14mm f2.5 for $170 to fund 1.7. Pics turned out way better than I expected from Europe trip in June.
This is a great price if u like black! Reply With Quote

yup, such a smart move, the 20mm goes for fairly cheap too used, and 14mm sells pretty easy Originally Posted by Aritzia

LX7 has a fixed lens, you ate stuck with it and no options for othe lenses. The sensor is much smaller than GF3 Originally Posted by kyli

The Panasonic GF3 is a rather "older" model. It is only "old" because the "GF" line gets refreshed really quickly and its already replaced by "GF5". Originally Posted by alanbrenton

To some professionals, the GF3 actually takes a step back from GF2 because "professionals" don't like fancy features like touch screen. professionals prefer physical buttons and dials. The GF3 is much more "consumer" oriented, and it is more compact. Reply With Quote

They shrink camera size. Camera is small and have touch screen. You have to very careful to take a picture. There is almost no room to hold the camera with your hand. If you are lady and have small hand, you will be fine.
