GH2 $175 worth getting?

I shot with a GH2 for about 4-5 years and generally it is a pretty good camera.  I have just passed it on to relation.  Here are my comments on the camera, many of which probably don't apply to you.

The sensor is quite old and modern sensors are probably around 1 stop better for high ISO noise.  The GH2 also has worse dynamic range than a more modern camera and I normally shot at -2/3EV to minimise blown highlights.

I wear glasses and I found the EVF to be problematical with the sun in certain positions, especially from the side.  I have no such problem with my current Olympus EVFs.

The GH2 actually has 16MP, not 12.  I liked the multi aspect sensor and often used it with different aspect ratios, especially 3x2, because there was relatively little loss of resolution.

The GH2 has lots of buttons and dials but only one control wheel.  I really disliked that because I always had to check in the EVF before changing a setting in case I was on the wrong setting.

The GH2 (and other Panasonic cameras) have lots of control dials on the top for AF and shooting mode settings which has several problems.  Some of these dials can be moved by taking the camera out of a camera bag so I had to check the settings before starting shooting.  It also meant that I didn't often give the camera to my wife to use because she could move dials accidentally.  Finally these dials mean that you can't include their settings in custom modes.

I shot mostly with Panasonic lenses with ILIS so the lack of IBIS wasn't really a problem.  I did have two non-ILIS lenses and just kept an eye on the shutter speed up when using them.

The camera is pre-DfD so AF-C is quite poor for bursts when shooting moving targets.

However, for everything but wildlife I preferred the GH2 to my Canon 7D DSLR that I also had at the time and I got a lot of very good images from it
