I will never serious about compact DC, the CCD is so small to produce good
OOF effect except for macro and distance landscape, not to mention the
slowish shutter response and poor viewfinder. The sub-100ms shutter lag E-1
is the only way to go. I didn't say compact DC cannot produce good images
but just no fun to use.
