Probably late at night in a sub- sub-menu. When you say the EM 1 was 'faster in the field' what exactly do you mean? I'm considering it as a daily carry around camera - I just don't like to tote around my M9 in my briefcase - and I'm still wondering if this small sensor can rise to the occasion when I take a prize winning shot that needs to be cropped a fair amount and then printed really large. As if. --Bob On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 3:17 PM, H&ECummer <cummer at netvigator.com> wrote: > Hi Bob, > Eventually the menu system was subdued - but it wasn't easy.
