Phil - I concur with Neal. Olympus is doing the kind of creative thinking
that I had hoped Leica would do.  However, I am getting the best of both
worlds with the creative approach of the Live View tilt screen on a DSLR and
the use of Leica lenses with the FourThirds adapter. Check out
http://www.northcoastphotos.com/Lympa.htm for my first month's experience
with the camera that Leica should have made. Their optics are superb, too. I
just ordered today the 14-54 f2.8-3.5 for a faster lens than the kit zoom.
