That means the E-3 is either overweight or the Canyon 5D is
underbuilt. But the 5D doesn't have sensor-based IS, weather-sealing
or a flip monitor.
The fact is, the bulk of the camera these days is in the electronics.
That E-3 is STUFFED to the gills. The sensor is only ONE componant
inside a camera.
Weight/size savings are in the entire system, not necessarily in just
one piece of the system. My 14-54 is much smaller and lighter than a
Canon equivelent on a FF 35mm. How about the 50-200 zoom? There are
lots of aspects of the Olympus which really do add up to major
savings. Yes, I'd like the camera to be a touch lighter, but I'm not
overally disappointed because any pro camera of this level is
essentially the same.
