When I bought this used Panasonic G1, it was already 10 years old. Apparently a common problem with this camera is the rubber coating chemically breaking down and becoming, basically, sticky goo. I used some isopropyl alcohol, q-tips, shop towels and some elbow grease to get the camera into shooting shape. It's not perfect, and it's now down to the bare plastic in most places, but that's better than my hand sticking to the camera.
