What lense was used for this?
If Canon doesn't fix themselves soon, they won't have to worry about mirrorless, because the world will be canon-less. Get it? Ha ha!
random78: I only see thumbnails of the gallery images on the last page. Clicking on the thumbnails doesn't open the gallery
"Because it's a Leica"? "Defending honor"?!
Haha. Leica apologists. They need to get with the program and realize that this kind of cam is worth a MSRP of $199. I will never get one of these overpriced fisher price lo-tech cams even if I have money like Buffett.
645D: Same price as a D800. Better video?
Canonikon, you've been officially put on notice. Start making cameras with the functions we want for 1/2 the price or go the way to Kodak. Last warning.
Ahem, Pany and SONY, put a proper hotshoe on any cam above $200 already, all right?!
Fire sale for $99!
Xiaomao: Hope Fujifilm will put their in releasing a brand new X11 or X12, instead. I like the desigh and idea of X10, but will buy one without orbs.
Time for Fuji to put these X10s in the $99 bargain bin already. Then maybe I'll buy one for kicks.
Ol Iver S: well written, the new firmware "attempts" to fix it... ;) it´s a shame that this wonderful piece of technique has such a serious design flaw! maybe i´ll keep it even though, it is capable of taking wonderful pictures and really nice to use. time will tell!
p.s.: no difference before & after worth mentioning over here, at least concerning wds.
Glad as hell I didn't buy this cam out of the door. Despite all the hoo-hah and good reviews, it had a crippling design flaw. Unless they slash the price to about $199, it ain't worth it. Wait for the X11 indeed.
Graystar: Musta had an excess supply of shutter buttons...
They should've put in 4 shutter buttons. You know, to appeal to the Nintendo DS generation. The ad could read, "Just get 3 friends and see who can shoot pictures the quickest! Annoy each other by ruining each other's shots! The options are endless!"
Funny how Japanese shareholders are comfortable with that corrupt board.
Rriley: the whole concept of 'whistleblower' is very unpopular in Japan, not only that he was never the right guy for the task of putting Olympus together again. It seems his personal investment to lead Olympus has failed.
That said a question remains about the Olympus management installed, for if they think they can roll along in the same old way, I fear they are much mistaken... At least Woodford would have offered a point of difference and been an advocate for change where change it seems is much needed.
I'm sure that in years to come we will find that companies we were duped into thinking had sterling reputations--honda, toyota, etc--will all be shown to have the same problems.
Japanese, American, Russian, whatever--they're all corrupt. Just a matter of time.
Japanese companies are no different from any other company in the world. 90% of them most likely commit some kind of fraud. The regulators are probably wary about confronting all this fraud at this time given the state of the world economy. Sure, you could clean everyone up, but then everybody would be broke. Just dirty business as usual. I don't care what happens to Oly since I shoot Canon. But if Oly prices were to go to 50%, I'd be happy to snap up a couple cams from them.
Everytime I have tried to read this preview, it takes me to an ad for compact flash after 5 seconds. That's gets real OLD quick.
If I want to read an ad, I WILL click on it. I don't DPreview to do it for me. Fix this.
