Hi All - I'm wanting to take bird pics to use as painting references: I use a Sony 8.1 mps compact at present but it's not really good enough (also have an old Panasonic FZ30 which has poor image quality compared). I don't want to spend lots of ££s on the DSLR+400mm prime lens route which seems to be generally favoured or to have to lug around such a hefty piece of kit. Has anyone assessed the 4/3 lens compacts such as Panasonic G1 or GF1 yet ?

Hi Dave and welcome on behalf of the Staff and Moderators
I'm sure we will enjoy having you here.
You could also try doing a search of the Gallery to see if anyone is using that equipment.

Ah, the same way I got into birdwatching - taking pics for paintings. If you've got the patience, digiscoping's one way to go.
