My used G1X for $465 was a wonderful buy (from keh.com, but it looks like they don't have any right now; bhphoto.com has it on sale for $600 until 6/29). If you want, I'll send you my draft review (need to process some photos before posting publicly). Before I can give you any advice, you need to provide some info about what you want to use it for. I got the G1X because I wanted a point'n'shoot with good low-light performance -- nobody else makes one with a zoom lens and sensor >=m4/3 (except the newly announced spendy Leica). I think it's a bit heavy for just carrying around; I prefer my Nikon P7100 for that (which also has better macro and zoom). -- Hugs and backrubs -- I break Rule 6 http://rule6.info/ <*> <*> <*> Help a hearing-impaired person: http://rule6.info/hearing.html -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
