Many thanks. I certainly will.
I guess another issue with a slow lens is how good the camera is at higher ISO. I tend to stay down at 200 or below and haven't really tested the G1.
Were the G1's successors notably better at higher ISO?
None of the Panasonic sensor are good at high ISOs. The G3 wasn't better than the G1 it only had more resolution. The G5 has the better GH2 sensor, meaning less noise at lower ISOs, but not really at higher ISOs (if I remember correctly). The best sensors are found in the new Olympus cameras : the E-M5 and theE-Pl5 and E-Pm2, recently announced the last two are not yet shipping in all countries. These three models share the same Sony sensor and mark a real progress, both in dynamical range and higher ISOs. It is a break through for mft cameras.
Can't fully agree with you here Christiane. See my response to the OP just above.
The 16 MP sensor in the G3 and GX1 is notably better at higher ISOs than the old 12 MP sensor in the G1. This is readily shown by DxO data (look at the DR curve) and practical tests alike. However, this sensor isn't significantly better than the old one at base ISO, which some people find/found disappointing.
The sensor in the GH2 and G5 is not better at higher ISOs than that of the G3 and GX1. If anything, it's the other way around. However the GH2/G5 sensor is noticeably better at lower ISOs.
