Hi all,
I am a casual photographer and I enjoy taking pictures, but its mostly of family and friends, social occasions. I have never used a dslr, tried once but felt too bulky, so I need a Point and shoot, the MFT interests me only because the epl- 1 is almost affordable by the mass consumer, who are not professionals but would like to have a good cam with great IQ.
I want to know, if I am better off with a P&S like the canon G11 or something like or should I look into the MFT. This cam will also be used by my wife who likes to shoot in auto, how would that be for her?
Is the auto focusing fast? Since I don't plan to spend a lot of money in lenses, I want to know what third party cheap lenses can be used with this, do they auto focus or is it manual focus?
Can this cam be used as a P&S, Will it produce punchy colors right out of the camera with PP, I don't want to spend time on PP. I like saturated, popping colors will the oly produce that.
Thanks
