C.H.,
The Luminous Landscape article compared Provia 100 to the D30, not Velvia to an
E-10. Not sure that that your E-10 comparison to Velvia is a comparable
situation in this case. While the E-10 is 4 megapixel, the 3 megapixel CMOS
sensor in a D30 is far larger, and CMOS sensors, provide, IMHO, better image
quality than CCD's. D30's were reknown for producing much better image quality
than larger megapixel (e.g. 4 or 5 megapixel 1/1/8" or 2/3") but smaller format
CCD sensors.
But Dan's point is still well taken....there's much more to image quality from
a digital camera than the no. of megapixels. Anyone who has seen the image
improvements that C*n*n's DIGIC brings to an S45 compared to an S40 or a 10D
has to a D60 knows this to be true.
BTW, Mike Veglia says you're doing wonderful things with your 10D and Zuiko
lenses...please send me a link so I can view your images.
Regards,
Stephen.

Ok, for this one I can't agree, I have seen this years ago and I argued
for
a week in rec.photo.digtial, two and half years ago when I have bought the
E-10 and shown my comparison of E-10(4MP) to velvia, no argue anymore!

Recently I have compared my 10D with Velvia shoot, the Velvia one is still
slightly better. Don't think a popular site always right, it is not true.
