Richard, I am certainly no uncritical Leica fan boy, and I have the E3 too 
and have shot lots of pictures with it...but since I got the M8 a year ago, 
the E3 has been relegated to backup duty. And every time I use it, such as 
during my 1 month while the M8 was in Solms over Christmas, I look at the 
images in LR and I realize that there simply is no comparison. 

The GF-1 in good light can hold its own against the M8. The E3 cannot.
