Sorry if my words was too strong. You are right that most of our subjects
for photography is quite different. For landscape or alike your approach of
digial zoom is absolutely fine, I think I was just biased on my own way of
shooting. But your suggestion of digital zoom really can't cover my needs, I
always carefully select forground and background subjects for a shoot.
Looking at part of the viewfinder to estimate the final shoot is not my
interest.

Thanks for your kind words, I absolutely like your shots too, that's why I
bought the F30. Your shots with the F10 are very nice!

Agree, we seldom have such beautiful scene and weather here so that makes me
prefer wide and short tele, that also force me to other subjects.
> Perspective is only a factor of distance, not lens or sensor size.
I understand, may be I have used the wrong word, I mean it is difficult to
feel the perspective when I cannot use the full viewfinder.

Yes, that's what in my mind.

Thanks, and I know you also enjoy the 5D very much, I really wish Olympus
had not went the 4/3 way especially it do not provide any size or cost
benfit to the users.
