<< Ken,
I have a XA4 Macro. I bought new in 1985 and it is my camera of choice
for a pocket camera. It has the Zuiko 28/3.5 lens and it certainly does
a fine jobe in just about any situation (especially outdoors since the
add on flash is pretty weak for what I'm used to). I have many slides
from it and I can't tell the difference between these and stuff shot by
the 28mm lens on the SLR body. It's just about as handy as any camera
can be. Focusing has never been a problem. It uses a little slider.
It's a great camera to take along on hikes or when you really don't want
to carry much stuff.

The XA4 with 28mm lens is indeed a nice camera--but it has severe barrel
distortion! This may ultimately be correctable digitally though.
