I just got one on eBay and it’s lacking its manual. I can’t seem to find the manual on the Panasonic website. If you have an original boxed G2, did it come with a PDF manual by any chance? If so, could someone send it to me?

Failing that, does anyone I’ve got a G1 already and know how to work it, but there are some subtle differences between them - e.g. I don’t know how to choose a “SCN”. On the G1 you get a menu of choices; on the G2 I don’t seem to be able to find it.

[G2 operation guides.](http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/mpi/dsc/g2/model_top.html)

Might do for a start.

Have you tried the support at [panasonic.co.uk](http://panasonic.co.uk), rather than the global site? By the look of things, they have .PDF manuals for umpteen various G2 models.

ETA: Scratch that, the different letters indicate language.
