Oh, I'm sure they will.... But it won't go for $779 with two lenses. :-)
I look at this as an "intermediate" camera. Digital photography
technology is not yet mature. I don't think it will take long until the
E-1 is seriously outclassed. Olympus' future also is a question mark,
IMHO. So I strongly suspect I may be buying another digital SLR in a few
years. I didn't want to spend a bundle now. The E-1 is good enough for
most of the photography I see myself doing in the foreseeable future.
It's a good time to jump into the pool.
