Over the holidays I was out and about a lot with my recently acquired Olympus E M 1 and 12 - 40 F2.8 Pro zoom. The M1 has a feature which allows you to touch the screen at the point - any point on the screen - you want the camera to focus and when focus is achieved the shutter trips. When you combine that feature with the up / down tilt rear screen you can take a picture where the subject doesn't think you are making a photograph - the camera is not at arms length or up at your eye - but you are focusing on the screen and the shutter trips. It is a technological substitute for Lluis's invisibility cloak. Please have a look at this baker's dozen of photos starting with this one: <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Invisible/TramglasCUw.jpg.html> http://tinyurl.com/m3mqwgr and then scroll left. Please view large and enjoy. C&C always welcome. Howard
