My wife is still not happy with her white M3. Too much troubles for her with detachable EFV, popup flash, changeable lenses, etc. Gotta buy her ELPH. If you are interested, M3 is on For Sale forum.

:(( I tried to convinced my wife to switch to M from her G12, but no luck. No articulate screen, no macro mode, no zooming with the trigger, no built-in flash and no retracting lens — all these makes this camera too difficult for her. I think GX7 is the best solution — maybe after price will calm down a little bit.

I had my reasons to sell M3 too. I like M colors more than M3. It could be a matter of subjective preferences. It seemed to me that every M3 image has wrong exposure and WB and needs corrections. I don't have this feeling with M. Almost every image from M is perfect. I played with settings on M3 but didn't succeed. My decision could be wrong, it is just my 2 cents. Thanks.
