As the current thread 'us lot over there' are using is beginning to get a little full, I though I'd start this one in the same kind of vein as the other owners threads.
I suggest we limit to any discussion and images from or relating to these cameras, and associated paraphernalia.
I'll kick it off by admitting that I have just augmented my GF1 with a GH1, so impressed am I by the Panasonic micro 4/3rds offerings. Probably frivolous, but life is short. In order to try to short circuit the inevitable flaming re G1 vs GH1, all I can say is that I got a good deal, and that the higher ISO performance of the GH1 is a little better than the G1, which is something I'm interested in. Whether or not that slight increase in performance is worth the extra is up for debate. The results I saw suggest yes (for me), but YMMV.
I have to say, I do like the viewfinder (one reason for getting it) - it's so much better than the EVF add-on for the GF1. I do like to have something to my eye, so this suits on the occasions that I can afford to carry a little more bulk than the GF1 (although the GH1/G1 is still pretty darned small). The Leica 45mm feels better balanced on this body too. I'll try to get some images up soon.
