It's indeed a very good book, well worth reading. However, the authors
completely (and criminally!) ignored all the OM/Zuiko gear, mentioning
Olympus by name only once -- and Pen F adapters at that!
IMHO, such utter lack of respect should not be condoned, and clearly
does not merit our patronage. So, pls do like Stephen C. and myself --
borrow the book from your local library, or buy it second hand. :-)
