It is not bad! The lens used is Vario 14-45/3.5-5.6, possibly a kit lens.
The initial price with a kit lens will be 80,000 Yen, since exchange rate
changes every day so you can calculate into your money when your
currency is stronger. |
I'm currently living in Japan, so I've had a good play with the G1 (a few times)
The cheapest price at the moment is around 65,000 yen with the 14-45mm lens, and 87,000yen with the two lens kit(14-45mm & 45-200mm).
The main problem with the Japanese domestic model, is that it is Japanese language only on the menu. (no facility to change to English)
The camera itself is quite small, but only a bit smaller than the Olympus E-410/E-420 DSLRs. However, the lens is very small !!
You can remove the lens of course, and you can see exactly how close the sensor is to the lens mount. One thing to note, unlike DSLRs which are protected by the mirror and a large flange distance, I'd say that a careless user could easily touch (and put finger prints on) the sensor, or even damage it.
Oh, and in compensation for no real viewfinder, the Electronic Viewfinder is a high resolution gem. It's actually hard to tell it's a tiny LCD display. (but it's still not a real viewfinder ) |
