The G1 is nicely compact and light. Apart from that, the G2 by comparison focuses a tad better, has a better VF and has a few extra bells and whistles. The lenses are typically Carl Zeiss quality and, even when new, IMO are one of the most underpriced lenses that I have encountered. Pictures are of top quality, whether in B&W, negs or chromes. When used properly, they also exhibit the 3D effect that are typical of film photography. At under $200, the G1 outfit that is offered would be considered a steal many years back. However, in this day and age of digital imaging, you will have to judge for yourself if that's worth it. Leically, Dan K.
