This is my view too. I live in the UK where the cost of the SHLD-2 kit
is around $670, so it would be quite a bargain for me to buy from Cameta
and get it shipped over here (and I've bought without issue from them
before). I suspect that it just wont fit on the new E-x, but it may also
be that the new camera has a built-in grip? I personally hope not as I'd
rather have the choice of big and clunky...
btw - this was also discussed here:
http://www.photocamel.com/index.php/topic,4354.0.html . I'm an active
member on that site and we really could use more Olympians coming over
(also looking for a mod of the Olympus digital forum if you know anyone
interested...). Come on over and say hello (I'm sure you can juggle the
OM list with a forum or two ;)).
