photographing the G1 next to the E-1?
I'll do that when I get back from the post office, Bob.
What is the EVF like, compared to a proper viewfinder?
There's no mistaking that it's an EVF ... you're looking at a video
image rather than an optical image ... but it's very bright and easy
to see, the resolution is 1.4Mpixel and the refresh is 60hz so it
appears nearly as sharp as a good computer monitor. I find it very
easy to focus with, manually, particularly with the MF Assist
magnification function. It does not have that crisp feel of a 'live
optical view', however. In very low light, it gets noisy and lag
develops, due to the refresh, where with the optical viewfinder things
just get too dark to see.
Thanks Godfrey,
I was curious how the EVF performs in low light. The reviews I've read
have mentioned the lag, but skirt around the useability. Does the MF
assist work ok in low light too?
