Summary: 5 Stars
There are many reviews and extremely positive. Look up the camera with the 14-45 kit lens.
This is a fantastic high-end camera with image quality in many situations comparable to -- even better than -- a lot of mid level DSLRs.
With the highly regarded 14-45 Panny lens, as a "walking around" camera for outdoor shooting it really can't be beat IMHO.
However as the one reviewer here points out, this camera has an autofocus system that isn't as fast as most true DSLRs.
If you shoot a lot of sports or wildlife, the G1 is not your camera -- you really need a full size DSLR with a bigger sensor and fast lenses.
Low light performance, similarly, is not bad if your subject is relatively stationary -- but not comparable to the newest DSLRs. For example, ISO800 is at the edge of this camera's performance range, but on the Canon Rebel T2i, ISO3200 will still produce great images. The T2i is twice as much money and a lot more bulk, however.
