The camera was designed to provide maximum image quality in the smallest possible body.
It is slightly larger than the earlier GM1, as it adds a flash hot shoe, an electronic viewfinder and a rear scroll-wheel for adjusting settings. However, with a body roughly the same size as a pack of playing cards, it is still extremely small for a system camera.
It has an image sensor size of 17.3 x 13.0mm, with a live MOS sensor. This is roughly a quarter the size of a full-frame sensor - resulting in a 2:1 crop-factor for lenses and a two-stop difference in terms of light-gathering.
The camera was discontinued in late 2015, and has not been replaced in the Panasonic lineup. It has attained a cult status, and is one of only a very few digital cameras to sell for higher prices second-hand than it did when new.
When sold new, it was usually bundled with a 12-32mm pancake kit lens or a double-lens kit including the 12-32mm and a 35-100mm telephoto zoom. A small 15mm f/1.7 prime lens was also produced to fit the camera.
