I took at look at the G3 at PMA last Saturday, and I was really impressed. Viewfinder seems bigger and brighter than the first G series I ever looked at a couple of years ago, and the feel of it in ones hand is very comfy. It seems to be about the same size as my FZ100 bridge camera, and many of the controls are similar. I didn't get long to look at it but initial impressions are good.
