I have seriously given thought to buying a G2 and have bid on half a
dozen or so on ebay, but stuff I read about noise and the quirkiness
of manual focus keeps from doing it.  Did you just coincidentally buy
this camera around the time you went digital or did it just not
perform as expected?  Personally, I have a Canon G2 that I use mostly
as a snapshot camera.  For more serious stuff, I'm still waiting for
the digital camera that makes me want to give up using my Leica
M6/IIIc.  I could probably find one (Canon 20D) that would make me
give up my Olympus SLRs, but I have a fair amount of macro gear for
those and that is all I really use an SLR for, so the investment to
move to another system would be steep.
