I have owned five over the last 20 years. You really want the GT-E unless you like the camera to make decisions or are not completely familiar with wanting to control the camera yourself. The other model has an amateur setting and it also has auto Dx settings, which remove the ability to use the ASA dial to control the camera as completely. The quality will not show itself on any monitor. Please accept that it is excellent. How would a monitor indicate to you the quality of a lens anyway? That makes no sense. As far as I know, the camera is imported by Leitz, but it is made by Minox. They have made quality optics since at least the late 1930s. It is truly a photographer's camera...exposes chromes as well as prints with excellent fidelity. Buy one, you'll like it. It is also relatively inexpensive in this day of microchip wonders.
