I heartily agree. Collecting Olympus gear is easy, we're only limited by our
wallets. Getting the inspiration to take meaningful pictures that have
something to say is the hard part. I know it's a constant struggle for me.
Without meaningful output, we're just camera collectors. Sort of like Lieca
users. It was a joke, no flames please!!
