Should be here on Friday.

Now I need to sell my 300 and 330 before Mrs. Wave finds out.

This could be a problem... :)


Those Olympic people won't be happy that you've deserted them.

Do you think the 4/3 system is a good compromise between full sized SLRs
and the tiny compact camera CMOS?



No. The original 4/3'rds didn't really catch on. There is no reason to
suspect the newly revised version will, either.


Did you guys see this site?
It compares the different image sensor sizes with a 35 mm frame. Sure makes
the G10 sensor at 1/1.7" seem tiny.
