About GR
I have traveled to many places with a GR from the successive generations in my bag. The cameras I use mainly for commercial use and art work are different from time to time, but I always have a GR. It’s great that you can quickly take it out and shoot behind-the-scene shots between locations. It captures a lot of unexpected moments outside serious shooting periods. It can relax you and be a nice change of pace when the shooting is not going well. Perhaps it's those photos you don't care too much about taking that best describe who you are.
