Oly showing a m4/3...but its still a secret!

I'm with Avotius. People will swear endlessly that you won't be able to tell a certain brand of film or film/digital from a blind test. 9/10 times it's fairly easy to do so. The medium taking the image has just as much influence as the chosen lens. Thus, people became unexcited by the G1 when the shots from the kit lens (a rather fine kit zoom lens, but still) were as good as shots using adapters and superb prime lenses.
 
i'm not unexcited :)

i have no need to use my m lenses on it now that i have the rd1 but of and by itself, it's still a great image maker.

Heh. "I just found out my $200 kit lens is as good as a $2000 Leica lens stopped down! Time to throw out the camera."

Is that what I'm reading here?

If that's the case, where are all the 28/2 Ultron users who are now 'unexcited' by the M8 because the 28/2 performs as good as the 28/2 Summicron stopped down? ;)

and I think the G1 is looking more like an option; what I don't like is the clunky looking "form" of the camera. I already have clunky looking DSLRs :D

Joe,

I agree with you. I haven't had more fun with a camera than I have with the G1 in a very long time. I love my M8 and other cameras but I have been reaching for the G1 a lot lately.

For a first generation product I think Panasonic did a fantastic job.
