The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Micro_Four_Thirds_system\">Micro Four-Thirds (m43)<\/a> system of choice for me then was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/reviews\/panasonicdmcg3\">Panasonic Lumix G3<\/a>, which offered me handling that was similar to the DSLRs I was used to, but without the bulk and weight. Since then, m43 cameras and lenses have advanced even further. In fact, &#8220;mirror-less&#8221; cameras are increasingly becoming the choice of even professional photographers as improvements have meant that the difference in image quality, although still present, has become less critical. The trade-off in image quality is offset by massive weight reduction &#8212; the cameras and lenses are much more compact and lightweight. I have just re-entered the world of m43 photography via the <a href=\"https:\/\/panasonic.net\/avc\/lumix\/systemcamera\/gms\/gx7\/\">Panasonic Lumix GX7<\/a>, which offers me good image quality through a compact body with a form factor that is reminiscent of rangefinder systems. I took the camera along for a spin today at Changi Jetty.
