How does the G1 compare in IQ to the canon Rebel line?
In looking at the site and doing the comparable, I notice the images from the G1 are very yellowish, with a tungsten look. The whites are way off. What's gives? White balance problem?I don't know how reliable this site is, but I came across the link to it yesterday

you can play around with raw, jpeg, iso for all sorts of different cameras
I've never seen anything wrong with the yellow and am mystified where this comes from. The colours are very accurate and auto WB probably better than any other camera I've had overall which means about 75% acceptable (worst is always in high contrast scenes which most cameras frequently make too blue) but of course you should always shoot RAW to adjust the other 25%.The yellow tone is odd - it's unfortunate the testers didn't set the white balance to compensate
If you're concerned about high ISO performance, see if you can find a GH1 rather than a G1 - it's quite a bit better in this department.With the 5Di would just shoot at 1600 iso. I cant don that with the panny and print as big as I do. So I am thinking, maybe the 20mm pancake might don the trick for me
There was a thread here a few months ago from someone who uses their m-4/3s for what you described but mostly in situations where there was good light. I had excellent images in very low light at 1600 and even 3200 with a 50mm f/1.4 when I borrowed the T2i for a couple weeks. If the 20mm won't do it, perhaps you need to consider the fact you might need to have both. With all the camera stores in NYC, you could always buy the 20mm and if it didn't work out exchange it towards the T2i.I do a great deal of interior shots. I'm working on a project right now of photographing people in their living spaces. (fine art). With the 5Di would just shoot at 1600 iso. I cant don that with the panny and print as big as I do.
