@vincentjanse These are not full reviews, especially with pre-production cameras like this one. These are field tests so you can see the features of the cameras and how they function. Also, we can only do a few videos on our schedules, so we choose cameras we actually like whenever possible. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

Love your reviews! Always happy when your videos pop up in my sub box

Excellent review, thanks!

Out of the box, the RX100 will give you a better image, but with the GX1 you can add fast primes, a viewfinder, and external flash. It depends on whether or not you're willing to invest more in the system after the fact. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

Ive seen it before and even had an opportunity for testing - great thing, worth buying, but now Im interested in GH3 actually.

More reviews, please! 1 or 2 a week would be great. :)

Both :) Jordan is right about IQ RX100/M2 wins by a small margin. The GX1 is now only around $240 body only. Get the 20mm 1.7 and you got a nice camera. Menu and button layout is fantastic on GX1. So for the money it is a very good value. Now GX7 avail. in Sept. 2013 and it is awesome but $1000 body only. GX1 has a great fun factor to use, quite light and nice grip. RX100 is also great but a lot more. If you have the cash GX7 and RX100M2. So many lenses for M43

love your reviews - always great - my thoughts on the GX1 is that the ISO is the killer - I do not like the IQ or grain over 800 - I so often need at least 1600 iso - but awesome control wheel and function buttons and controls - well built - great video - and a nice lens selection - and a bit less $ then say the NEX6 and Fuji X E1 - So not a competition for the APS-C size sensor - but for travel and if you have good light then a good choice - for IQ with ISO over 800 no go

This is awesome. I would never have traded my gf1 for the gf2/ gf3. Actually I already thought about switching over to Olympus. But this will be a dignified replacement!

Shoot NEX7 & 5n and Fuji X100 as well as the OMD-5 so have lots of m4/3rd's lenses and now the GX1 is $239 body only just have to get one :) Hope ISO 1600 is OK. Some have said GX1 not good passed 800. but will be a nice backup for OMD-5. So maybe not as good as OMD-5 but for that price a no brainer. Love the 4 function buttons and multi func. wheel, touch screen, shoot via touch. Viewfinder $160 so reasonable. Just so well laid out. Nice review as always

awesome...as always... I always watch them...never commented.

Image quality is pretty much identical. What is more important to you, a small camera, or a viewfinder and flip screen? If you want the tiny camera, go GX1, if you want the viewfinder and flip screen, go G5. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

@BoxxyFan It's also much more expensive and has a more limited lens lineup. I love the NEX-7, but the GX1 certainly has its place. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

if you had to chose between the GX1 or the NEX-5. which would be your choice?? thanks Andy

How do I adjust the shutter & aperture independently of each other in Manual mode?

@xxbluejay21 There is no shutter, aperture or ISO control in video mode. Only with stills. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

good video thanks!

@bklynjimmy The camera has mechanical shutter. It is quite quiet, much quieter than a DSLR and very similar to the shutter in the other G-Series bodies. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

Now that you've handled the gx1 and Nex-7, which do you prefer? It seems that you buy a camera for it's lenses and the GX1 appears to have a better lens selection. But, when you figure the cost of the GX1 and LVF2, the NEX-7 appears to be a good value..What do you think? Thanks in advance.

Love to see this go up against the NEX7. I know Panasonic says they are marketing the GX1 against the NEX5n but its the NEX7 that everyone is comparing it to. Also no manual exposure on video? Even the EPM1 has manual video.

Damn he been doing this thing for quite some time now That hairstyle though👌

@mobiletechkid The uses a Panasonic AF100. Its a movie camera, its not a DSLR. They used to use a Canon 5D Mark 2.

@desmoface If I was just picking a camera, I'd say the NEX-7 is the better camera (our pick for Camera Of The Year). But the GX1 is part of a much more complete system, and the lenses are noticeably smaller. Right now, I'd go Panasonic, but that might change when Sony launches a few more primes. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

About the video mode, can you use the filters and manual focus while shooting?

4:20 mini bokeh?! At 4:20? You guys are insidious... Awesome reviews keep up the good work. I'm in the market for a compact mirrorless, taking in all your suggestions. Decision in December.

@TheCameraStoreTV nice, christmas is coming. i hope soon!

@Rationalific Incredibly, unbelievably well.

Old memories...

does the camera have touch to snap picture function like Olympus EP3? =)

Nice one..

How does it compare to the ep3

It's 2021 and I just bought one of those for USD50.

it does have a jack for a microphone go on h&h and look

Hi Chris, do you plan to make Samsung NX200 review?

And few months later comes the game changer.... Olympus om-d e-m5! Be prepared... I have sel 2 gx1 + 1 gf3 to buy the first om-d. Still works today.

epl5 or gx1?

What camera do you use to film these episodes

Chris when you turn your head to the right your mic audio falls off a little.

Nice, but I wish it had a compound finder like on the X100.

@TheCameraStoreTV Heh! Thanks!

Look for "constant preview" in your camera settings menu and make sure it is turned "on".

@@TheCameraStoreTV so my camera is in japanese and im having a hard time finding that , is it under the camera icon in the menu? Or the wrench?

@@Realletsplaygrey It's the wrench with a C. (3rd Icon down) Then select "Monitor/Display," which is an icon that looks like a screen with an "i" on it (4th one down) Then in that menu, select "constant preview" which is 2nd in that list. Then turn that feature "on".

how cold was it?

@JimS0cks The ultimate versus video is coming soon... Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

on my pc it looked slightly out of sync . . . audio/visual, only slightly though

@ceruaphadion This si what I want to know as well... I am a bit torn between the two

The GX1 body can be had for $200 if you look around.

this or the fuji x10???

@wsukun Actually I think their videos are very highly rated. It's just that they haven't built a big audience yet. But I think they'll manage to do that. That's the advantage of the internet.

May i ask what canadian city are you in?

@ehilado06 Bokeh is determined by the lens used, not the camera. Want bokeh? Grab a Panny Leica 25mm F1.4. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV

lol old times

In response to the guy below, Digital rev is fun to watch. Not every digital camera video has to be stuffy and boring...Not that this one is just saying. Let them be...them.

too bad u guys dnt ship to the US!

do another versus video

how about the BOKEH

No as i expected. The gf was more impressive. The gh is the gf and gx killer. :( hey how come no olympus rev?

@NLS87 albeit, I like your channel ;)

Liked! Check! Favorited! Check! Subscribed! Check! Amazing Video! Check! Very nice reviews guys. Why do I find this channel now? and not March 2010? Keep the videos coming! Love them!

1:37 lol =)))

Bucket of bacon.. whaaaaaaaaat.. @04:03 so that where EpicMealTime got their thing with bacon. Bucket of bacon and a bypass to go.

it looks alot like the gf3

if they only put built in view finder... its a best seller :0

@BoxxyFan Sorry, but the NEX 7 is a joke. The Canon 5D II outclasses it in every way and has a much better lens and accessory selection.

first!!

I got this gx1 + 25 mm f1.4 leica ultra good!!! Too fast

Shutter Sound Is awfully loud

b&h*

The reason you are cold, is because you are wearing a light jacket. You live in Canada, you would know how to dress properly for the winter.

I dont dislike this channel but why is this guy so over positive that is not a good quality in a reviewer.

You pack too much information, seems more like an AD… :\

Dude, your trying to hard to be cool. I think somebody is a narcissus.
