I havenвЂ™t used one, but it has a better layout and the manual focus is controlled by a dial on the front of the camera, so less chance of knocking your focus to infinity by accident.

Therefore, I have no experience with the subject. The Contax G2 makes up for a lot of the G1вЂ™s shortcomings. What type of film do you use? What suggestions would you have for me?ДЈ. I really enjoyed projecting my slides however, the greater exposure latitude of negative film is very tempting. I'm telling you this so that you know what my workflow is. I subsequently scanned my film with my Nikon CoolScan 5000.

I do not run my own lab however I have a professional lab that I trust developed my film. I'm also deliberating between taking negative film or positive film. In other words, what I'm asking is would you give up the comfort of the zoom lens in terms of focal length and simplicity in exchange for better quality (in my view), several more stops in the aperture department, and the hassle of changing lenses?Дў. Also, I've noticed that I use these focal length seldomly. I do not like the fact that I miss several apertures on the wide open side. I haven't had all that much time to get used to it but the advantages of the multiple focal length is tempting. Like the G1 there are single, multiple exposures, continuous (high and low speed), and timer shutter modes, but the G2 adds a second dial around the back focus button that lets you choose between single focus, continuous focus, and manual focus. On the other hand, I've recently purchased a used 35-70 Zoom lens. The Contax G1/G2 and Leica-Ms all set focus by measuring ('finding') the distance ('range') to the subject and setting the lens according - as opposed to SLRs (manual- or auto-focus), TLRs and view cameras, where focus is set by evaluating the focus of the actual image itself projected on a ground glass/focus sensor. This is because of my handicap (I cannot use my fingers with dexterity). This isn't something that's going to change because I cannot physically change lenses myself. The downside is that it takes me quite a while to change lenses. I really enjoyed the simplicity in only having to choose the aperture rather than the focal length as well. The G2 is a premium AF rangefinder with interchangeable lenses with several improvements over the groundbreaking G1. I have used all the primes, that is the 28, 45, 90. Regarding lenses: I have not had that much time to use this camera and its lenses. The design - Ergonomics are the best Ive found for such a modern 35mm camera - Lenses are incredible - A lot of features (double exposure, bracketing. I have some follow up questions to your answers.ДЎ.
