Pity as it is compact and looks good on the L1 http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Phileica/Lumix/Phx.jpg.html What I find most difficult on the L1 is the absence of an on-board anti-shake device (OIS on the kit lens). Have you tried using a tripod to check on the consistency of the poorer results? Best from Metz Phili^^e Lawrence Zeitlin wrote: > I have an Olympus E500 4/3rds DSLR.
