The autofocus on the camera is lightning fast (as fast as my 5D was) and I am very happy with the images so far......they are a "huge" step up in quality from the G10 and even the DP1 and the shutter has no lag as well as shooting in RAW + high quality JPEG the write time is almost instant!
Had a bit of snow overnight so managed to grab a few images to give me a break from computer, I am very happy with the images produced by the GF1 using both 20 & 14-45mm lenses.
A couple of images of "Arlington Row" in Bibury, Glos - these are cottages purchased in 1929 by the Royal Society of Arts, they are full of character and have a mysterious air about them.
I had the feeling someone was watching me but could not see them, when I processed the image I saw what looks like a face at the window - they were not apparent to the naked eye!
This is a scene I keep coming back to.
Here is my first portrait of 2010 - a photo of my wife in her Vintage shop - I took it in the square format setting, and used the incredible 20mm lens.
Here is my first post for 2010 - taken today in the park on a cold, frosty yet sunny day - I cannot think of a better start to the New Year and may the sun shine on you all!
2009 Images:
Well, I have had this camera now for one week so thought I would take my final images of 2009.

The first 4 are taken inside Gloucester Cathedral, all using the 14-45 zoom and tripod.
I managed to grab a couple of shots at the docks and used selective focussing to add impact.
The next five are general street images.
Took my Father-in-law to the Swindon Railway Museum today and shot using GF1+20mm all on tripod - I am very happy with the results, and converted to B&W to go with the era!
