Well, we have a very honored visitor from the Canon dSLR forum who has deigned to dispense his wisdom here in the u 4/3 forums. Although he owns a Canon dSLR, and does not own any u 4/3 equipment he has lots of advice for those of us who do.

We should listen to him.

After all he has a "98% keeper rate" from the last 4500 photo's he took on vacation with his Canon dSLR:

This to me is astonishing! I must admit I have never heard of such a high "keeper rate". I would guess my "keeper" rate with u 4/3 equipment is about 40% on a good day. Some days, no keepers at all!

Perhaps Canon dSLR equipment is just that much better than u 4/3 equipment. Or, maybe there is a darker explaination that I am just not willing to face.

The explanation is very simple. Finders, keepers. DSLRs have finders so they get more keepers. The same applies to some, but not all, MFT cameras. Luckily, mine has a finder so I get only keepers. Now if you are unfortunate enough not have one, you can turn to the Bible for comfort: Seach and you shall find.

In any event, I thought it might be enlightening to find out from you what your "keeper" rate is with u 4/3 equipment and what a "keeper" means to you.

Thanks in advance for participating.

this is the Answer!

I knew there must be something different about dSLR's to account for the 98% keeper rate!

Of course!

Finders keepers.

And dSLRs have finders, Pens don't.

Everybody knows that.

Simple!
