[OM] Re: Newby Intro + Zuiko prime lens question

Ah, such a little thing, but so simple when put that way. (Can I plead loss of 
mental facility due to advanced age?) Haven't given f-stop relationships much 
thought for years -- actually since filter use on my Retina 1A in Korea in 1953 
and my Miranda F in Thailand in 1968. (The Miranda drove me to a Pen FT in 
1969.)  I just select f-stop or shutter speed for the intended purpose, compose 
it, preview it and if it looks good to me, shoot it. That's what Olympus' TTL 
metering and DOF previewing will do for you.  ;o)  Thank you, Maitani.
