Some of the Amazon reviews are critical of low light performance. Anybody care to comment on this camera's abilities in this regard?

Well I already have a GF2 but I'd take it over the GF3 because of the hotshoe, better handling, and ptools hack (still waiting for manual exposure in video though).

Not necessarily, for a focal length this short you really don't need IS, just make sure you have sufficiently fast shutter speed.

I was gonna say this as well. This combo essentially requires a tripod unless you have super steady hands. No image stabilization (neither the camera body nor the pancake lens has this).

Yup, the hack breathed new life into my GF2. Because of that I ended up using the GF2 once again which lead me to buying the Oly 45 1.8 and will be selling my 20mm 1.7 for a Summilux 25mm 1.4 DG.

Well THIS comes with the pancake 14mm lens which doesn't need IS. And if someone wants to add a zoom lens then just buy a Panasonic lens which comes with OIS.

Using a prime lens is very functional, are you implying that SDers are a bunch idiots that cannot frame their shots properly by moving with their feet?
