    No, I am not a sheriff. I am something like a detective in an interview, who already knows the answers to the questions he is asking. He just wants to see if the other person is...

    marike6,

    But you're wrong. You can't discuss these cameras more intelligently than I can, or at least you won't, because your only interest is in shilling Nikon products. Everybody knows this....

    Marike6,

    I've shot G1, G2, and GH2.

    I'm not lecturing you. I'm just telling you that to me you have no credibility.

    The principle is simple. In any kind of persuasive argument, if you...

    Either you have a problem with the English language, or you are extremely mean-spirited.

    Nobody has a problem with people mentioning other brands. It is the incessant shilling that you do...

    George,

    True enough. Sometimes all it takes is another pair of eyes. And I'm not advocating sloppiness in writing or publishing!

    Adrian,

    I like what you're saying. I've (almost) always gone for the cheapest stuff online, but it makes sense to support camera retailers. I used to patronize a genuine old-time camera shop, the...

    onlooker,

    I'd settle for a crappy Olympus one, like the 17mm 2.8, which isn't that crappy really.

    Adrian,

    Where are you? I saw $349 (obo!) + $8 shipping in the U.S., unless somebody has bought it in the past couple of minutes, which does happen.

    GeorgeZ,

    When I write long complicated documents, I tend to make errors, and I don't think I'm a sloppy writer. (Maybe I am!) Anyway, I bet if you emailed a few editors at prestigious academic...

  • Commented on Just Posted: Olympus E-PM2 Review news story

    I agree. I'm seeing $349 + shipping on ebay right now.

    I agree. I'm seeing $349 + shipping on ebay right now.

    EDIT: And why not offer it with one of the cheapy pancake lenses? I'm tempted to buy it, but not with the bulky kit lens.

    P.S.

    If I were dpreview, not only would I NOT get ET2 off your back, but if ET2 didn't exist, I would create him to hassle you, since I wouldn't want every single thread, for every single product,...

    "if the mere mention of another camera"

    Now marike6's incessant daily propaganda for Nikon, which is equivalent to bludgeoning forum readers over the head with a three-ring binder of Nikon talking...

  • Well, their first move has been to get their trolls to post on this thread that the Canon and Nikon versions are superior. We'll see if it works.

  • Gimp 2.8 has the option for a tabbed interface, I believe. You can configure it several ways. However, it doesn't appear to have all of the functionality of Photoshop tabs....

  • Gesture,

    Nobody is looking to do you a favor. They are trying to sell product for as much as they can get for it.

    As an Olympus DSLR user, I had to pay twice what Nikon, Canon, etc. users had to...

  • Why? You didn't seriously ask why, did you?

    Nikon's strategy is to offer "affordable" full-frame bodies, so they can stick it afterwards to purchasers with overpriced lenses.

    Good for...
