I don't believe it will. I compared the picture closely to my E-20. It's the E-20 lens in the mockup. Maybe in a removeable mount, but every single feature matches. Too big a coincidence. Tom The photos of the prototype Olympus Four-Thirds camera remind me of Edwin Land's remark as he tried out the EK-4 and EK-6 cameras from Kodak: "I expected so much more from Eastman." It would seem that Olympus has labored mightily and brought forth a mouse. Unless that chunky/clunky lens covers the 35mm-equivalent of, say, 24 to 300mm at a constant f/2.8, I see no reason to give up my film cameras for "serious" work. http://www.dpreview.com/news/0209/02092411olympus43show.asp Right now, it looks like my "system" digital SLR (if and when) will be a Canon or some brand other than Olympus. < This message was delivered via the Olympus Mailing List > < For questions, mailto:owner-olympus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > < Web Page: http://Zuiko.sls.bc.ca/swright/olympuslist.html > |
