I've been to the mountain (or at least my local retailer) and unless this
thing goes in the tank in the very near future, I'll probably have one in the
next year or so. Probably the E-2. Can see 3 or 4 lenses taking the place of
many more I now own (no, I'm not getting rid of them). The camera has a nice
feel to it and with the battery pack & standard zoom lens, I think it is
probably lighter than my OM 2S with winder and 35-105mm Zuiko.
Has anybody mentioned that the 4/3 format is the same as for a standard TV
set, which means absolutely nothing unless one wants to speculate that it was
designed by the TV generation rather than the guys who designed a camera around
a movie film format. I'm sure this may be way off and it may generate another
OT thread that when rolled into a ball stands 14 ft tall and sets a new
Guinness World Record.
Hey man, all I did was plant the da#eed. I didn't know what would grow
out of it. { 8^) Bill Barber
