Very nice.

Now if they can design the battery to be a cylindrical shape, with the contacts arranged on an angled ridge that runs down the side, and perhaps do green-and-white and yellow-and-black...

@inorogNL yep, you could attach the Oly 50-200 to this camera+grip and it wouldn't look or feel rediculous (no more than the original OMs with big lenses that is)

For me the optional grip and weatherproof 4/3 adaptor makes a big difference to the appeal of this camera.

I've always thought that having a small 'core' body that can be expanded to provide...

Yep, I used to wash my E-1, 14-54 and 50-200 under the tap after a day in the rain or at the seaside - I have full confidence in Oly's weathersealing

...it's not baaad.

If they did, I guess they'd (a) have to drop the FX acronym, and (b) offer an optional tripod collar for $$$ :-)

Perhaps they are using Nikon's acronym to indicate that it full frame (versus DX cropped frame)?

Hmm - I thought one of the main selling points of mirrorless cameras was the reduced lens-to-sensor distance (and the resulting reduction in size) that the lack of a mirror provides.

To create a...

Great shots, and many thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience. One question regarding DoF since you mentioned this - I know that crop sensor cameras have more DoF than full frames at...

On DX it'll be close to 135mm, which used to be a classic short tele lens - small enough to not attract attention, long enough to give a nice compressed tele perspective. I used to have 28mm,...

While I wouldn't agree with what I think the article is saying - that the X10 is more attractive from a feature perspective - I do think the X10 has a great old school look reminiscent of early...

Both Fuji and Leica have recently confirmed mirrorless systems for next year. Hmm, coincidence? Was the X100 a tester product for a future Fuji / Leica partnership (similar to that Panasonic...

Stunning shots - lovely light and great lenses to capture them with. Although I'm a real sucker for macro with creamy bokeh, my favourite is actually the first shot - the leaves on those trees...

Phew - sorry for that rant, not sure what came over me. Perhaps it was the energy hit from my oversized meal and extra large latte with caramel shot.

...probably made in one of the most advanced factories in the world by staff who are far more dedicated than most of us in the western world who seem to think we're not only superior, but that we...

Leaving aside the sensor debate, these are very nice pics from what looks a very fun camera.
As mentioned in the article, this seems to be the ideal family camera with it's speedy focus and...

This sounds a fantastic new camera - I handled a GRD3 shortly after it came out and was really impressed by it's build quality and no-nonsense design.

The new screen should improve the usability...
