Hi Earl,

certainly see the logic of Olympus' decision not to produce it, and

Quite, I do feel the same. But then - someone will eventually make it,
just like the adapter for the 10D. Basically the camera needs to be told
that there in fact *is a lens on it but this lens just doesn't
communicate with the body and the body should fire anyway (or something
like that).
And I understand that MAYBE it got posted "by
mistake", but it seems like a pretty big mistake to do so, almost
unbelievable, especially seeing that there was a part number
associated with it, as I recall.
I don't know where the picture first showed up. But some people seem to
be really angry about it. I wouldn't like to be the - yet unknown -
person that let the info out anyway. Let's leave the subject..
When I handled one (oh so briefly) a few weeks ago, it felt really
good in my hands. The batteries were dead, so I could really do
anything, but between that feel, the build quality, and the quality
of photos I've seen on the web, I'm pretty impressed. But I will
probably wait for a newer model with slightly higher sensor
resolution.
And I'm very curious which features will be left out for a coming
consumer (and cheaper) version...
cheers
