My use of the screen is chimping the histogram.  I almost don't use the 
meter except for an initial rough reading.

Your analysis of good/bad vision and screen use was right on.  Without 
glasses I see well enough through the viewfinder to compose the image 
and autofocus does the rest.  But I couldn't do the same on a screen 
without reading glasses even though I can tell where the histogram is.

I did read the G1 review but maybe I should take another look.  And 
maybe I should compare it to the size and weight of the A1 rather than 
an E-420 which I don't own and have never even seen.
