Hi Everyone,
Brief background. I have been using Pentax K10D for about a year having returned to photography after a 20 year hiatus. Something didn't work for me with the K10D (although its a lovely camera). No feel. I switched back to film in fixed lens rangefinders and - WOW - the pictuures had real meaning for me. Trying to duplicate the same feel in digital on a limited budget is very difficult but the GXR has done it so far because its small, I can shoot in snap mode and although its not a rangefinder, I can duplicate enough in its settings to make it feel right. And it just fits my hands so well.
