Pros: Small, very unobtrusive. Extremely sharp Zeiss lenses. Superb viewfinder, balanced for each lens fitted. very good battery life
Cons: you need to understand how the contrast detection works- if it doesn't lock focus in landscape mode, shift to portrait, and it will lock focus;just a knack of working with the camera.
Opinion: personally, i love the camera; i also have the G1, which I keep fitted with the 21mmf2.8, and the special viewfinder; you get some amazing razor sharp images with this combination ! Alto gether, an ideal travel camera- the 90mm and the 45mm F2 are amazing lenses, very sharp. loading of film is simplicity itself- put the filmin, extend up to the mark, close camera, and the film advances to position 1, and when it reaches 37, auto rewind ! Viewfinder very easy to use, prived you keep your nose out of the way ! The Zeiss lenses really are superb, the only ones I haven't tried are the super expensive 16mm Hologon, and the 35mm F2. I can't really advise on the 35-70, it is too slow to be practical.

Pros:Body very solid, yet discreet and compact: it seems to wield a weapon of precision. Great viewfinder and very comfortable the MAF manual.
Cons:Focus cumbersome, not immediate to understand and quite noisy. Excessive consumption of batteries
Opinion:C once you understand the operation of the machine, is so pleasant and satisfactory use that pushes a shot if you do not need: in fact I always keep a spare film with me.
