Nathan you read my mind thanks :-)

I've noticed that Oly and Pana tend to get out beautiful cameras I  
want to use when they first start a new line (E1, EP1 or L1, G1)
and things start deteriorating with the next instalments ... bells,  
whistles, ergonomics, swap of essential features for trivial  
gizmozzes, etc.,
all then goes in the wrong direction for me ...
maybe for me only

No insults to the gear, far less to the crew.
Far from it.

Bien cordialement de Metz
Philippe
