You can add Samsung (NX200) and Olympus (E-P3, PL3 and PM1) to this new field of cameras.
All should offer you photos that are equal to ones from a DSLR camera.
They use the same sensor size as the half frame DSLR cameras.
There is not a robust availability of lenses yet.
Trying to wade through the features of each camera and try to choose one over the other will be a large task.
I have not seen any comparison reviews.
I hope one of the big review sites will tackle that soon.
Greetings!
I have been using Eos 40D for about 5 years(used to use film SLR before). I loved it at the beginning but it started to fail every time I travel abroad. (essentially it start making clicking noise and can't shoot. fixed once at canon factory and it got the same problem after 8 months! fed up with this!)
So before my backpacking India trip, I would like to purchase a lightweight digital camera and I cannot decide which works for me. I saw reviews of SONY NEX-C3 and Panasonic LUMIX DMC-GF3, started to think of small camera that probably doesn't get me the same quality as Eos but won't exhaust me with the weight...
I'm not a pro but am in Creative field and I would appreciate a quality, thus dragging the heavy SLR till today but now I started to like the handiness of the smaller cameras...
Thank you for your input!
