Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 (Red)

Pros: I like the fact that I can use my Leica Lenses with an adapter- in an aperture priority fully automatic mode.

Cons: As in the review, the front dial is too sensitive, and I use the camera in "P" mode rather than "A" and that takes care of that. The instruction manual was also written by the Devil. Terrible!

Summary: Not only is the camera fast and low noise, but as an old Leica Photographer wirh Leica Rangefinder Lenses (the best in the world, in my opinion) using an adapter the camera is fully automatic (aperture priority) with these lenses. When you stop the lenses down manually, the EVF gets brighter! The results are nothing short of spectacular, and using my Leica M modified Canon 0.95 lens- I can shoot available light in ANY light.In a word- Fantastic! I haven't had so much fun with a camera in thirty years. I will buy a back-up body. The new model at $1500. does not offer enough differences for me.
