>>Surely neither the Contax nor Leica systems are anywhere  near as
comprehensive as OM, they may be in the future of course. What holes could
Oly plug, more powerful flash?

In the bodies...
Higher shutter speed and flash synch.
DX encoding
built-in winder
balanced fill flash
multi-segment metering
ability to use flash with spot metering

in the lenses...
a new SOTA super-wide, 14-15mm
faster available light lenses like a 35 and 85 1.4
redesigned teles like a 300/4 and 400/5.6
new fast 80-200 2.8 zoom to complement the 35-80

and yes, definitely, a new flash


Regards,


Denton Taylor
