Just one reason why I shoot 4/3'rds.....

Kind of ironic that you would take Sergey to task for his comments and yet not do the same for the OP, who in order to make his point, had no problem bashing CaNikon shooters. I've been shooting exclusively with Olympus DSLR gear, in numerous venues and locations. I certainly don't "always get condescending sneers from CaNikon shooters". I'm NOT a CaNikon shooter yet I find that highly offensive.What planet do they do that on? Most anywhere I've been, the majority of CaNikon shooters have been polite. On the contrary, in this forum, there are many people who react with a condescending sneer to the mere mention of Micro Four Thirds, even when in a context that is appropriate for this forum, such as the case of a OMD user who recently inquired about alternative flashes to the new FL-600r. It's as if they want to be sure that people's posts from a week and a half ago are not denied preciously scarce front page space.

So why not discuss the D600's dust issues in the Nikon forum where such issues belong? Apparently you don't have a problem with it since the bashing is not against the sacred Olympus Four Thirds. Well, how about we change the subject to the sensor in the OMD versus the one in the E5. I've heard numerous complaints about the old sensor technology, lack of dynamic range, and poor high ISO performance of the E-5. I dare you to find a handful of complaints concerning the OMD.

Again, why not ask the OP if he got some sort of sick pleasure shooting down the D600. Have YOU noticed that nobody wants ANY negative contributions in this forum? This is not the forum to /discuss/ Four Thirds, this is the forum to either *praise* Four Thirds and bash other formats, or be silent. This is the forum to stroke the egos of Four Thirds users at any cost.

You can do something. Start your own Fan Club. Limit the membership to those who will agree to ignore any and every fault of Olympus Four Thirds, only praise the equipment and bash all others. I guarantee you won't find Sergey there.
