Not really. It is an autofocus camera with interchangeable lenses, not a true rangefinder camera. WHEN it focuses (which is almost always) it is very good. The rest of the time... Well, you can see why there are three major manual focus systems still in production (Leica, Voigtländer, Zeiss Ikon) and no autofocus. I had a G2 outfit alongside my Leicas for a year.

Mit freundlich Grüßen,

Roger
