I can't decide if this is a good deal or not haha.

Pretty good deal on a DSLR. Great video features. $499 for the body and lens from Amazon

http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-D...ywords=GH2

was about to post this since it came up from my price watch. a great deal.

great deal.

Great price, although I do wish the specs on the included lens were better - like f2.0..

Excellent price on the GF3 but not significantly cheaper then the $285 to $300 that the price has hit several times in the last 30 to 60 days.

However, the better deal is the GH2, especially if your looking for DSLR type of performance with awesome video capabilities. At $499 this is a steal, by far the cheapest I've ever seen. I don't think it's ever been below $700 on Amazon.

What do u think, guys?? For the girlfriend....This GF3 or the refurbished J1 from Cameta for $269???

Lumix LX-5 might be another option. It's $249 on Amazon now. Two year old camera, but still highly rated.

neither is a dslr.

in any case, op. the real deal is the GH2. the gf3 is normal price. I'd suggest changing the title to include the gh2.
