Hi all,
Been following this thread with great interest.
Doesn't the G1 represent the ideal photo/digiscoping kit. Digiscope with the kit lens and regular photography when coupled with an Olympus 70-300mm, via an adapter (giving upto 600mm reach)- accepting that you can never have enough reach. The Olympus lens had quite a favourable review recently in one of the UK camera magazines that ran a comparison of telephoto zooms. I am also assuming that the image quality of the G1+70-300mm would be better than one of the current crop of superzoom bridge cameras, especially when you take into account that alot of photos would be taken at maximum zoom.
Wouldn't this make a good set up for travelling as well, being light and fairly compact?
Or am I missing something fundamental?
Any thoughts much appreciated.
Alll the best,
Mark
