I'm really not tempted to sell all my u4/3 equipment
11

I've dotted round the brands (in digital) - Pentax (K100, K5), Canon (5Dii), Fuji (X20), Panasonic (GF1, GX1, GH2) and now finally a GX7.

I haven't always been happy with Panasonic G... colours in JPG - truth be told I've been most satisfied with the 5dii and the Fuji colours. But I have loved shooting with u4/3 - always handy and always reliable.

Anyway - with the GX7 I think that final gap has been closed. STD film simulation and the ever reliable 20mm make a formidable JPG shooters tool.

Took just that kit to Edinburgh for the weekend and though the light was poor for Saturday (either raining sideways or just raining) the AWB was good, the colour reproduction was spot on and I didn't have to spend more than 30s in post per image (light LCE, 0.8px radius sharpen and a frame).

This one was shot wide open, ISO200 and still barely pushed 1/100s exposure - showing how dim the light was.
