But it is substantially better at 90 mm. I find that for some situations the G2 is quite superior to my M6's. One interesting aspect of the G2's and M6's I have purchased last year (three of each), is that the manufacturing quality control of the G2's was much higher than the M6's. Eric, is correct that the G2 is a camera that is not best in certain situations. Of course, the same can be said of the M6. However, I give little credence to those who criticize any product without owning one. Too much chance of sour grapes. Tom Shea Tom Shea << But the viewfinder is terrible. I find it has more in common with "regular" point and shoot cameras in that it's like a little periscope rather than a real camera's viewfinder. If I pay that much for a camera, I expect a viewfinder that doesn't strain my eyes. >>
