I first saw the term, "peaking" in a Michael Reichman column on Leicas but it refers to the scintillation effect seen when an EVF comes into focus. Certain finer detail on objects seems to shimmer (a kind of moire effect as the resolution of the EVF and the object detail size coincides) and (like with the old diamond pattern on SLR focusing screens, surrounding the split image) you know the manual lens is in focus. This works very well on the G1 EVF as every scene usually contains that kind of detail, but I'm wondering if the GF1 EVF with its considerably lower resolution produces the same effect? If it does, then the absolute resolution of the EVF is less important. Given its courser resolution, it might even work better, but I'd be speculating.
