Another FX-format camera means that Nikon will jump back with both
feet into the production of full-frame lenses, updating some of the
current ones and introducing new ones.
Ain't gonna matter. 4/3rds is going to rule the world.
Will that be at the same time or just after eTech Evinrudes "capture"
a larger market share than Yamaha four-strokes? :)

Same theory actually - the better things are fewer in number.

It's an age old axiom that consumer sheeple like you get suckered with
every day.

What are the advantages of the 4/3rd system vs Canon or Nikon?

Well, it has a smaller sensor than the DX cameras!

Oh...wait...that's not an advantage.

Not true at all - it's a full frame system - it's just at a 4:3 rds
aspect ratio which is a fairly common standard for high quality film
work because of it's anamorphic qualities.

I think it was called Super35 or something like that.
