Hi Ernie,

Yes, the GRD is a wonderful pocket camera. I shot a whole gallery in Val 
d'Isere with it last year:

I am going back to Val on Friday, and again this year, the GRD is the 
only digital camera I am taking, although this time I will also take my 
Bronica MF rangefinder--I feel like shooting some B&W snowy images.

The only real limitation of the GRD, as is the case with all cameras 
with tiny sensors and many pixels, is the noise at higher ISO speeds. 
Anything shot above 400 will need treatment by Noise Ninja or similar tool.
