It is significantly larger than my G1 and GH1. As to "resolution", it's 20MP and does have an 80MP mode (pixel shift) - probably not enough for your good self ...

Myself, I cut the 5184x3888px captures down to 5MP:

The S1R took my mind off it, but I still like the idea of that G9. Maybe some day I'll try one.

Maybe.

Are you happy with the speed of shooting and dynamic range and what not Ted?

Still learning basic operation, Scott.

Do you shoot video?

So far, only by accident! I found half a dozen MP4s on the card today.
