[Leica] You guys probably already know this, but the GF1 is one sweet little camera

[mark at whitedogs.co.uk (Mark Pope)]

Oh really?  I hadn't heard...;-)
I discovered an interesting feature whilst playing with an old 
undedicated flashgun this afternoon.

(Nathan, at this point, cover your eyes...(-:  )

I put the camera into manual mode to set the camera up with the flashgun 
and found that it somehow 'knows' when a flashgun is attached and it 
won't let you set a shutter speed of no quicker than 1/160sec.

I'm off to a family party this evening.  I'm taking my M8, couple of 
lenses and SF-20 and I will probably use the GF1 as a backup...


Have fun with your new CL erm I mean GF1.
