Deal Expires today!--Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF5X Compact System Camera

[Woofmeister]

Groupon has an amazing deal on the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF5X Compact System Camera for only $399. That's an amazing 47% off on one of the best of the new breed of compact system cameras along with the very desirable retractable 14-42mm power zoom lens.

Unlike most camera discounts, this discount is on a current model which just came out in April. You can read the photography blog review here. It is "highly recommended".

Do not confuse this deal with the Lumix DMC-GF5K kit which has the less expensive and non retractable G Vario 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 lens.

If you are an expert looking for a much smaller, more convenient alternative to your big SLR camera or a beginner looking to step up from your smartphone camera, this is your deal.

Hurry--Deal expires today!

Edit--Now Sold Out And for Throckmorton it is/was Micro Four Thirds

Edit--It's Back 02/12/2013 Now back again! I have this camera from the last time the deal was posted and it is amazing! Shooting in RAW, photos look as good or better than with my full-size DSLR.

Go here.

Are you serious, another "compact system camera"? Yes let's fragment the market even more so that everybody fails.

Edit: Oh it's M43. Why don't they just say so?
