[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have a G3, and my C2 program is set up to F/4, Manual Focus to about 8.5 ft which should give a zone from about 3 ft to forever. ISO 100, daylight light balance, no flash. i.e. - no decisions left for the camera AFAIKT. It still fells slower to respond than my F100 with full auto everything. And the viewfinder is not great, to be polite. Still, I use it for 80% of what I do (sumer, no pro). To me, it is nothing like an M. But it is a very nice camera. It responds well to spending a lot of time with the manual, with camera in hand. - -- Clive http://clive.moss.net > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of > Bob Adler > Sent: Monday, August 18, 2003 8:00 PM > To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Subject: Re: [Leica] What a prosumer camera is > > > Eric, > I've never tried the G3, but the G5 shutter delay is > minimal after focus is obtained.
