For the past two weeks I’ve been rediscovering my love of photography. I purchased a Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1 with a 20mm f1.7 lens that’s been getting rave reviews and have really enjoyed shooting this camera. For a number of years I travelled around with 10-20 lbs. of SLR gear hanging off my shoulder, but got tired of lugging it around. Tried a few digital cameras, but they were always too slow to focus and shoot and ended up in a box in a closet after a couple of months. Until now.
The GF1 focuses incredibly fast and takes the shot as soon as I depress the shutter. It feels like I’m using a high quality film camera and that makes all the difference. Feel free to check out some photos on my photoblog or flickr account.
