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

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.

It's hard to rule the world with a 1% market penetration, which is about
what 4/3rds has now, and eTec has yet to achieve. :)

Like I said - keep following all the other sheeple in your quest to
fit in.

I really have no idea what the 4/3rd group is selling as their
advantages, but I had it was a way for those with smaller market share
to be able to group together to allow them to compete against Nikon and
Canon.

Well, the obvious is because I own it and we all know that I am one to
emulate being the manly handsome dude that I am.

However, 4/3 format is a system designed to be completely digital and
not emulate 35mm film cameras.

In short, advanced technolog - something not everybody appreciates.

You can compare it to four stroke vs ETEC. Four stroke - ancient
technology. ETEC - advanced technology. :)

Seriously, here's a link.

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.

That certainly is part of it, but not all.

The ultimate goal is to produce a small camera (say like a Coolpix or
Powershot) which is the equivalent of a DSLR smaller than a pack of
cigarettes.

Coming soon to a store near you - Oly and Panasonic are going to
capture the PnS market with this because it's the same sensor that is
used in Oly DSLRs.

Argue with this wiki article and diagram:

The name of the system comes from the size type of the image sensor used
in the cameras. The image sensor is commonly referred to as a 4/3" type
or 4/3 type sensor. The common inch-based sizing system is derived from
vacuum image-sensing video camera tubes, which are now obsolete. The
imaging area of a Four-Thirds sensor is equal to that of a video camera
tube of 4/3" diameter.

The size of the sensor is 18×13.5 mm (22.5 mm diagonal), with an imaging
area of 17.3×13.0 mm (21.6 mm diagonal).[2] Its area is 30–40% less than
the APS-C sensors used in most other DSLRs, but around 9 times larger
than the 1/2.5" sensors typically used in compact digital cameras (see
image sensor format).

in most other DSLRs, "

Yes - It's smaller - I never said it wasn't.

IT'S DESIGNED THAT WAY ON PURPOSE TO ACHIEVE FULL FRAME IMAGES AT
SHORTER FOCAL LENGTHS AND AT BETTER QUALITY BECAUSE THE LENSES AND
SENSOR ARE DESIGNED AS A COMPLETE DIGITAL SYSTEM UNLIKE OTHER SYSTEMS
WHICH ARE TRYING TO EMULATE 35 MM SLRS.
