My point wasn't that on camera flash was useless, but that used creatively you can make any flash work well. There are all sorts of cards /diffusers and things to bounce the flash wherever you...

Why would you assume that is all I have ever used?

So if 4/3 is a "supported lens mount", what body is for sale today that they can be used on? And over the last couple of years there has been -one- body these lenses will even fit on being sold....

You would have a seriously hard time focusing a f1.8 lens much less a f1.4 wide open on that camera. And do you feel you need more back ground blur than this? This wasn't even shot wide open...

Have you actually used this flash? The light quality from it isn't nearly as bad as you describe. + you can use different things to diffuse the light if you feel it's that bad. I didn't see what...

If they are mostly outdoors or you have room indoors, I highly recommend the 85mm f1.8G. I find it's hard to take a bad portrait with that lens :)

So you really think the Olympus brand name means something to consumers because of a MF 35 film SLR introduced in the 1970's...

What would you expect on a 4/3 web site poll. Do you have facts to back up these people would buy it? Especially for the close to $2000 is would likely sell for. While I want to see a 4/3...

And rightly so given most cell phones provide the same performance.

LOL! sorry :P

Exactly. Like I said I can't swear this is how the Tamron VC works but before it started doing this I would randomly get motion blured shots and now I don't. It is -not- a focus issue and it's not...

huh? hops out of the screen? It's not "losing focus" I am talking about. It has nothing to do with focus. And my comment has nothing to do with focus. :) Let me try one more time. I clearly am...

I believe I read the nikon is a "two part" deal but the tamron isn't. They don't work the same way. http://www.photozone.de/nikon_ff/619-tamron70300f456fx "The Tamron lens offers a VC ("Vibration...

It's not a "focusing" jump but that you will see the image on the focus screen using the VC "snap" into position. Move the camera with the shutter held half way down and you will see the image in...

A "delay" is when it takes a while to release a new model. "death" is when they stop production of all the old models and don't introduce anything new to replace them. Every camera manufacturer...

I was with you until you said the "Loyal fan base". Most have given up. Look around, they already have abandoned 4/3. At this point -if- 4/3 comes back it will be a resurrection of the lineup....

The corporate corruption was a big part, hence asking the CEO or else read up on what happened yourself. http://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/39594156 That + poor 4/3 sales after a pile of money was...

"Excellent image quality ... indisputable; in fact, among the very best" is what he said. And no, what I am saying is for many people a camera that "satisfies one's requirements as a photographic...

Compared to the E5 or any 4/3 model sold is years? Yes. Ask the last CEO. And why do you suppose Olympus gave up on 4/3 if it was such a hot seller for them? Hmm lets see a $400 camera with the...
