Hi,
I am a non-mU4/3'rds lurker :smile: who is very interested in moving away from my brick outhouse of a DSLR to possibly a GF1. I refer to it as a brick because its a Canon 1Ds Mark 1, and its huge and heavy and cumbersome and draws a lot of attention.
I come from an OM-1 film camera via a Canon 20D which had the worst colour fringing on its kit 18-55 lens, that I bought the 1Ds and a 17-40 f4L and love the full frame resolution. But (isn't there always a but?) I'm suffering for my art carrying this monster around and its getting left at home in preference for my Canon G9. So.. my question is, will a GF1 replace the 1Ds in quality? They have near enough the same 11-12MP, but the 1Ds does that with full frame. I enjoy 80% landscapes/architecture, and the other 20% is childrens sports - but thats optional, the G9 has been just as useful at that - I'm just a proud parent not the team photographer! If I did go to a GF1 can I get an adapter for my better EOS lenses?
looking forward to the advice
