Catching Up With the Panasonic G1
Without doubt the Panasonic G1 was one of the most exciting announcements of the year. For those of us left with questions after the initial announcements, there have been at least two interviews worth reading.
4/3 Photo posted a "Q&A with Panasonic over the G1", addressing Leica's involvement, the progression to 12MP, target market, and more.
