ITEM: News editor Michael R. Tomkins corrects a misconception about Olympus'
*four-thirds system* ( http://www.imaging-resource.com/NEWS/1033665660.html ).
"In an interview with Olympus executives yesterday afternoon, we learned that
the 'Four Thirds System' does not refer to a 4/3-inch image sensor that has
been presumed to be the base of the design," he
begins.
Interview with John Knaur Sr. Product Manager, Consumer Product Group, Olympus
America, Inc. regarding the recent major announcement by Olympus and Kodak at

if anything small falls into them they ensnare it,
but large things break through and escape.
