Maybe a D600 will be the one?Wolfgang Lonienhttp://wolfgang.lonien.de/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12906299.post-51127876024927605602012-08-11T17:29:35.306-04:002012-08-11T17:29:35.306-04:00No camera is perfect.

Portability did it for me as I started to carry a camera with me almost everywhere. A full kit of two m4/3 bodies and 4 lenses all fit into a nice little bag. Another reason was the ability to put just about any legacy lens on the cameras. I have used Leica mount, old Minolta and Nikon lenses which to me is icing on the cake. With the increased megapixel count/dynamic range of the new OM-D sensor and the super IBIS I can say that I am about as happy with my new OM-D as I will probably ever be with a camera and system although I do cast many a sideways glance at the Sony offerings. The thing is, I have reached the point to where I know that all of the cameras are great and that it is time for me to focus on my getting out and taking pictures rather than drooling over the next new gear(as much as I enjoy doing that) which I keep rationalizing will improve my photography.Thomas Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16605898496482217158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12906299.post-26741227220630271722012-08-11T14:13:10.832-04:002012-08-11T14:13:10.832-04:00This will be interesting to watch.

The nice thing about being an amateur photographer is that we are both the client and the photographer and therefore have the freedom to choose whatever we want.<br /><br />When choosing don't forget the importance of ergonomic and handling - whatever you buy needs to feel right when you pick it up. The E-1 was/is great in this respect. About three years ago I bought a Nikon D300, but for all its technical excellence it never gave me a buzz of anticipation when I picked it up - just wasn't the right camera for me.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336704197938012672noreply@blogger.com
