And this is with an AF camera that is almost 10 years old in design by now.
Imagine what Oly could
accomplish with a new advanced iS camera today if they set their minds to it.
As a matter of fact I
would even settle for a slight "make up" improvement with perhaps new body
colour, predictive AF and
auto colour balancing flash (from it's smaller cousin)...
