Re: You really need a GM1

Thank you, Marty.

I should probably invest in a pancake lens. But both the 14mm and 20mm are somewhat redundant given what I already have (17, 25 and 45). I am having a hard time convincing myself to spend that $150. I don't want to sell either of my primes.

I think with a pancake, the epm2 or the GX1 would be much easier to carry. I plan to sell one, but not sure which one. I was sure that the GX1 is what I will keep. But after using both for a few days, I actually prefer the interface on the EPM2, even though it's less 'premium'. I also like the white color.

The X100 is obviously an impulse purchase. But once I started using it, I was very impressed. Something unique to that Fuji color. I almost bought an XE1 the other day. But was able to resist, barely. I don't know if it makes sense to keep the X100, as it's quite heavy and the focal length is covered by my 17mm. But it's such a nice camera ...

I think I would be satisfied if I get a pancake 20mm. But that means the 17 and 25 will see less use.

It's fun to have problems like this, I guess.
