Congratulations and enjoy your new purchase.

But, just a caution. There are greater and lesser cameras out there. Because one camera may be "better" than another, it doesn't make the other camera "horrid."

Spend enough time on this forum and you may find yourself regarding your GX-1 as a "horrid" camera. It's not, but there is no shortage of critics of any particular model here. If you get caught up in comparing hardware specs, you'll miss the "big picture" in what it takes to become a better photographer. Start down that road and you'll be pursuing hardware improvement at the expense of improving your experience.

This is a hardware forum, alas, and there is, in my opinion, far too much focus on technical minutia as advocates for one camera try to "prove" their opinions to the advocates of other cameras.

In the final analysis, it is the photographer and not the camera.

Enjoy your GX-1, learn its strengths and weaknesses, learn what kind of photographer you wish to be and how to work those strengths and weaknesses into your photography.

Shoot. Shoot. Shoot.
