  • Replied in E-7 Wish List
    I am asking "only" ;-) for: 20mp sensor, 10fps, no flash, rounded left lower corner, control over wi-fi, HD video recording at 60fps and BLM-1/BLM-5 battery compatibility.By the way, few months ago...
  • It would be quite wise move. If they have the money :-| to invest in R&D it may work. I am only curious whom they will target? Pro or prosumer? It is very well possible that Olympus will produce...
  • In fact E-3 card door is fully plastic (it only looks like metal), however Nikon D700 have metal hinge, so in this case I would say Nikon door is more robust.I am "metal" guy, I would like...
  • E-5 is the best camera ever made. That is why Olympus will not make a successor;  it is just not possible to make anything better.
  • I think the group of Oly 4/3 diehards is too small to have influence. I do feel abandoned by Oly but in fact I think it was the market (users), which abandoned Olympus (I do not blame the market of...
  • That is why I am saying I am different and I need sturdy mount and don't like the adapter. By the way, how would you change camera settings that require two hand operation?
  • Thanks all of you for responses. However I am not convinced yet, maybe I am a little different ;)Let's discuss my case. I use 35-100 for outdoor sports, most of the time with monopod and sometimes...
  • Created discussion I can't accept m43 mount.
    Question for those who are looking forward to switch to m43 when the new camera emerges at the end of 2013. Say you have a complete range of SHG heavy lenses. Do you mind to use adapter? Will you...
  • I see it differently. Olympus is saying 4/3 is discontinued! Next body will be m43 so you need adapter for 43 lenses. While I do not object EVF if it is improved, mount adapter is not a solution...
  • Replied in OLY in future
    My mistake. I said resolution but I was thinking of number of pixels.The size of the lenses is comparable. Compare Olympus 7-14, 14-35 and 35-100 with Nikon and you will see no big difference.The...
  • To invest in lenses there must be trust. I do not trust Olympus any more. Sorry, they just lost me. It is also good in some way because based on the lesson I just learned I have a good reason to go...
  • A couple of months ago people who were saying that Olympus 4/3 is discontinued system were called trolls. Now Olympus seems to be a biggest troll :-)
  • Replied in OLY in future
    Why? I do not need it.
  • Replied in OLY in future
    I made a comparison some time ago based on B&H prices. I compared 3 Olympus SHG lenses 7-14, 14-35 and 35-100 to Nikon equal quality set and as I remember Oly set was a little more expensive. The...
  • Replied in OLY in future
    I am considering moving to Nikon FF. The lenses that I need are 14-24, 24-70 and 70-200, all f2.8. With Nikon D800(E) I will have triple the resolution and better low light performance plus many...
  • This is another sign that there will be no E-7. They also wiped out 4/3 from their newsletter. Too bad.
  • I have the Garmin GPSMAP 60C, I bought it for a bargain price last year. Very robust, waterproof, good display but lack of flexibility. Doesn't accept memory cards and is not working with bitmaps....
  • Replied in Where? nowhere
    Yes I agree, you have the best technology and will always have. You may like to post it also on Canon and Nikon forums.
  • Birds as usually very good, no surprise but the portraits are outstanding. I like especially the second one, hair storm.
  • Four thirds system may be dead in terms of development however this forum will not die as long as we use the 43 gear.
