Daniel J Cox interesting Blog post on OM Systems techonology

I recently saw and commented on a blog post on Daniel J Cox’s website regarding the quality and unique technology of the OM Systems Cameras. His blog post and my subsequent comments are in response the phoblographer’s comments. Seems to me that he(photoblographer) has an ax to grind with OM Systems and I cannot understand why anyone would want to disparage any company that is producing a great product that is affordable and readily carried in the field. See below:

After toting around a bunch of heavy Nikon equipment and doing the same with Olympus and Panasonic, I am 100% in agreement with Dan. Fact is, the vast majority of people with cameras do not make a living with photography. They simply do not need all of the purported benefits of large sensors. When you look at the photo processing software advancements, relative differences become very small. Then you have to ask the question, is the added expense and weight of the larger systems, worth it? It seems to me that the best camera is the one that you are carrying. If more people can afford to carry nice equipment like Panasonic and OM Systems, all the better for the hobby.

Finally, people that are so hypercritical need to remember that our camera equipment needs to be fit for use. With what the majority of the people are using their cameras for, M43rds is more than adequate. Get out there and use it and quit writing ugly drivel.
