 Olympus
UK has today confirmed that the body only list price of the E-1 digital
SLR (including 17.5% VAT) will be £1699.99. This means that at least
initially the E-1 will be approximately £200 more than a Nikon D100
and £450 more than a Canon EOS-10D. Assuming the E-1's street price
drops once the immediate rush is over we could see it matching the D100
at £1499 (inc. VAT). In my opinion this price is simply too high
for a new SLR system. We still don't have official pricing for lenses
or accessories.

The Everyday Sling might just be the perfect pack for not carrying too much gear, combining comfort with Peak Design's signature modern style.
When the Fujifilm X-T2 arrived, it was more than just a modest upgrade to the already impressive X-T1. While the new X-T3 hasn't changed the overall design of the camera, this model is way more than an upgrade; rather, it's a quantum leap.
