hi rangefinder people,
this is my first post here. My first real camera was Leica M4-P, bought with price money from a photo competition. There has been lots of hype and speculation about the pany and oly filling that rangefinder niche. I don't think either camera makes the cut yet, but maybe next generation releases. I got them both and am enjoying the video mode, if you are interested you can see the oly clips here,
summer fun in art6 mode

and the one shot with the GH1 here, partially slowed to slomo it
http://www.mikekobal.com/blog/?p=215
comparing the two cameras, in photo quality, I prefer Oly's colors, but overall, the GH1 wins. Sharper images, faster AF, a tad softer shutter sound etc. The GH1 is just the better camera.
Interested to hear your thoughts.
cheers,
Mike
