Panasonic lumix gf2.

[Carson .]

so last night i was talking to joe riley for a while and he talked me out of the t2i trend and show me this cam.

its like $150 less for a body and lens kit and it seems to produce better video quality from what ive seen on youtube.

also i want a fisheye and i found some for cheap on ebay like $60.

Would it degrade the quality of the camera witha cheaper fisheye? should i wait and save up for a samyang? does it make a HUGE difference?

 

[Carson .]

And what has better filming quality? T2i or gf2?

 

[ChrisBrown]

If I were you I'd buy a T2i and get a good $250+ fisheye like a Rokinon 8Mill. You won't regret it trust me T2i shoots so beautiful videos and if you get a T2i you have the whole picture taking perspective which you wouldn't get as good with a gf2

 

[Carson .]

But the gf2 has more clear footage. Atleast from what I've seen

 

[Bear Grylls]

t2i is a trend because it is a great camera.

 

[Nick Griffin <3]

why the fuck does it matter if its trendy god damn t2is have amazing quality but ive never seen any vids from the other cam.

 

[Bob_Drenth]

Ive looked in to a Gf2 also lately, but if you've got money enough id go for a Gh2

 

[Carson .]

I know both are a great cam. But gf2 is a little cheaper and seems to have better quality

 

[Carson .]

i think im going to get a t2i only because im really familiar with it.

 

[Joe Riley]

The people who are going to say get a T2i do not know anything about Gf2s/Gh1s/Gh2s. The info I gave you is pretty much all you're gonna get when it comes to this forum. Check out SP, they have a whole thread based on m43.

link?

 

[Joe Riley]

The forum is down at the moment.

 

[Carson .]

that's why. i was really confused as to why it wouldnt let me look at it.

micro 4/3 (what panasonics run on) to my understanding have a bigger chip than the cmos chip on canon dslrs which i think is only 1/3. that means better quality and sharper image. I myself am in this debate and i am getting a gh2 hopefully if this guy will trade.

 

[Carson .]

So a gf2 will produce better output than a t2i?

 

[Joe Riley]

Yes.

 

[D ∆ V I D]

get the gf2 if you want to make videos. I'm not sure about the photography aspect but lumix has the best dslr image in my opinion.

 

[Carson .]

Yeah I wanna make edits

 

[D ∆ V I D]

then get the gf2. but really save up and get the samyang.

 

[Joe Riley]

Gf2 + Lumix 14mm + Lumix 14-42 + Samyang 7.5mm + Camcaddie and you'll be set. They don't have poor audio like Canons, either.
