I have an XL H1, and have been commenting in that forum for over a year - often complaining about the viewfinder, the weakest feature of that camera...

I wonder how the A1 (or G1) viewfinder compares... anyone here who has used both? Just curious...

XL H1 EVF: 215,000 pixels on a 2.4" LCD display.
XH A1 EVF: 207,000 pixels on a 2.8" LCD display.

The primary difference is that you're stuck with the EVF on the XH A1, unlike the XL H1, where you have the option to replace it with a much better EVF (the monochrome CRT viewfinder).
