The World's Smallest and Lightest System Camera

Stunningly Slim, Compact Design Even Fits in a Pocket The World’s Smallest and Lightest Body

With an adoption of new mount, the DMC-GF3 achieves dramatic downsizing compared with the predecessor DMC-GF2. It breaks the record of being the world's smallest and lightest interchangeable lens system camera* again.
Even though pursuing the ultimate compactness, Panasonic did not compromise in the equipment of camera such as built-in flash.

* For an interchangeable lens system camera with a built-in flash as of June 13, 2011.

Same Size Sensor and About 50% Flange Back Length

A Breakthrough Mirrorless Structure Micro Four Thirds System Standard

By adopting the Micro Four Thirds System standard, the DMC-GF3 features mirrorless structure that eliminates the mirror box and optical viewfinder unit. This carefully preserves the image quality while maintaining a compact profile, and provides you with even higher levels of performance in a digital interchangeable lens system camera.
