My similar circuitry G1 is usable to 800 (or 1600 with black and white), about the same as my 20D and has comparable quality at the sizes I print. Adapters are available on the 'bay and cameraquest.

I looked at the camera yesterday in a store in the Forest City where I live and the salesman told me it should not be used, in his opinion over asa 100, and that he had shot some photos higher and they were grainy. He kind of softened a bit in talking and said certainly not over asa 400. Anyway, he thought the electronic viewfinder was very good but did not have one in stock. By the way also does anyone know why the camera and 20 mm lens is not offered as a kit in the US but is in Canada where I live? Sorry if this has been talked about before on the group. Also where does one buy the leica adapters for the GF-1 body and do the Leica lenses seem to work well. I understand the range is 2x with this sensor.
