What I like about the Olympus is that is conceived from ground up, Canon and
Nikon offer a more ambigeous feeling there.

So true, but CD's have a lifetime of about 10 years, DVD's a bit more, and
hard drives are not to be trusted. I've learned this the hard way. Archiving
for our office. Luckily these are images. Try to read an old cad file from
1993... bad luck.
And Colour calibration, and, and,... Digital IS a lot more then the camera
alone. Luckily my instinct for colour output isn't that bad!
Thanks for your insight,
Iwert.
