[OM] Re: E-3 specs

[Joel Wilcox]

If the 5D and E-3 are not the same size/dimensions, comparison of
their relative weights only tells part of the story.

E-1 =  660g (1.5 lbs) 141 x 104 x 81 mm
E-3 = 800g (1.8 lbs)  142 x 116 x 75 mm
5D = 810g                152 x 113 x 75 mm

The E-3 is reported at 800g in Deep Peeve w/o batt.  The 5D is 895g
but that's WITH batt.

So it's a centimeter less wide and a bit thicker than the 5D.  I'm
guessing it has more metal and less plastic than the 5D, which would
not be a bad thing in my book.
