The GF10 (sold as the GF90 in some markets) was released in February 2018 as a successor to the GF8. It added 4K video and Bluetooth over its predecessor while keeping the same compact selfie-oriented body. The 16MP Live MOS sensor, fully articulated touchscreen, and lack of EVF and IBIS are consistent with the GF line. At around 240g, it is one of the lightest M43 bodies available. It replaces the Panasonic Lumix GF8. At 240g, this is one of the lightest M43 bodies available, 298g below the M43 average of 538g. Step up to the Panasonic Lumix G100D if you want more controls at the cost of 93g extra.

Casual and social photography
The GF10 is a very compact, lightweight body designed for casual everyday shooting. The selfie screen and built-in Wi-Fi target content creators and casual shooters. No viewfinder and no IBIS limit its use in low light and for technical photography.
Compact travel
One of the smallest M43 bodies made. For travel where size is the primary constraint and you are not shooting in demanding conditions, the GF10 pairs with a single compact prime for a genuinely pocketable kit. Full guide →
