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

This could be a problem... :)

This is instead of what you were buying the other day?

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.

I hope you don't hate it.. I have found the smaller the camera, the
harder it is to hold.

I'm not really - the Olympus camera according to those in the know is
totally based on this camera.

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


We have to get away from 4/3rds being a "compromise" format. It's a
different format designed to be completely digital from soup to nuts.

Having said that, yes - I believe its almost ideally suited for this
type of camera and in fact, I think Olympus was waiting for a change
in processing technology from the git-go with 4/3rds to do exactly
this.

We'll see what happens.

Where do you come up with this crap? Talk to fashion and outdoors
photographers sometime about what they use in reality - Canon or
Olympus E-1s and now E-3s.

Keep following the herd Harry - that's what you seem to be really good
at.
