Perhaps I bought the wrong camera in the G2. There could easily be much better
handling pro-sumer P&S's out there, but I was unwilling to hunt for one,
prefering to move to the E-1. I for one, will not buy a >$500 camera that has
an Electronic View Finder or has any significant shutter release lag.
Granted, the image quality of the G2/3/4/5/6, 8080, etc at low ISO's can't be
faulted. I got great shots with that camera.
But for me, I was right on the money and haven't looked back.
