Re: semi-pro

Saying that Olympus now "doenst care" about the hobbyist is ridiculous in my eyes.

Surprise! No one has said anything of the sort.

u obviously dont follow the threads. several people said that

Just because one specific camera is oriented at the pro market, doesn't mean they have abandoned the enthusiast market. That's nonsense.

And as I said elsewhere: EVERY camera maker does this. Most Nikon and Canon DSLRs are sold to enthusiasts, not pros. Almost every Leica is sold to affluent enthusiasts, not pros. Pros buy Fuji and Pentax medium format cameras, while enthusiasts buy their APS cameras.

right. that's exactly my point. saying that "This is a PRO camera and not for hobbyist" is a ridiculous claim. Many people have said it justifying the cost. that's all.
