A sensor slightly smaller than the E510's, AS, no dust! And more DR, the Achilles heel of 4/3rds.

Does this camera steal the E510's thunder?

It's not a DSLR - No optical viewfinder, No lens changes - none of the flexibility that a DSLR gives you. Now, that sensor in a four-thirds size could be interesting.

IMO, it's inevitable that we'll see sooner than later fixed-lens digicams of C-8080 quality with advanced EVFs, fast RAW write speeds, fast AF mechanisms, and IQs at higher ISOs (400-800), that rival current generation DSLRs. I'd be very happy if the things I disliked about my C-8080 were fixed in an updated model. Heck, I don't even care about high ISOs so long the other issues are taken care of.

It looks great on paper but super zooms are almost always about compromise. How good is that glass you're stuck with for starters? If it's close to the the paper, it'll give the competitors something to think about.
BTW, all this dynamic range expansion stuff? Am I right in understanding this is just getting the camera to make some of the decisions a traditional photographer/developer (or expert digital photographer/post processor) has always made during exposure and and subsequent processing?

I see you are t'r'olling again. And you a D3 owner, you should be ashamed of yourself, misleading the good folks here, and letting down the good name of Nikon like this.

Yes, but for the market segment, that can be a plus.

Agreed, but that is said a competitor to the E510. Not the E3.

And you a D3 owner. It probably is competition for a D3, after all, it doesn't have the HUGE dust problem for a start.

Yeah, it's certainly coming to a point of diminishing returns. We have not come as far as we thought from the days of 6mp DSLR's. My E-3 has approx. 650 more pixels horizontally and 740 pixels vertically. Not a staggering increase by any means. Were it not for the bogus submission requirements for stock agencies, I would have simply stayed with the E-1. As for the fuji camera vs the E-510, the comparison is ridiculous. It's unlikely it will operate with the speed of a DSLR or pack the quality glass required for the P&S size sensor. Worse yet, Fuji will probably charge more for it than the Olympus e-510 kit. These high end point and shoots are usually a pretty penny.

I assumed you meant the 450D, which looks nice.
Er, no, it has a horrid EVF and a 14 times (ie soft) zoom. Bin it.

It is interesting that the camera also takes video. A convergent device.
You like the 450D? Looks like another plastic Cracker Jack charm with a 12MO sensor stuffed in it.
Well, but is it sharp enough for the target market, that is the question IMO.
You have to admit there is quite a bit of overlap in target markets between the E510 and the Fuji. Not to say that the E510 does not have superior IQ.

I'm not you know.
As a psychologist I have had to deal with nasty little creatures like you, with your nasty little minds, and nasty little inadequacies for quite a while.
So your puerile behaviour merely troubles me, for your own sake.
To that end, I may have to follow you from thread to thread to warn people about you. What an onerous task.
But I suspect that others can clearly see the way your thoughts and words deviate from the accepted norm, so I will leave you to gnaw away at yourself.
Sad pathetic creature that you are.
I pity you; and you cannot even understand the ramifications of that, can you? Sad, really.

The 450D is going to kill everything in sight, including the 40D, at least on sales figures.
For me the interesting cameras will be the k20D and the succesor to the D80.

Nah. I was erased when the forum crashed. I signed up that previous week. O was forced to signup again. This forum is so screwy, I did not even select the name "Paintyou." That was emailed to me in error. I explained that somewhere Raist.
