Samurai San, It could be a blessing in disguise? :) Why not give it to someone who wants to learn how to use a camera? |

And oh by the way, Panasonic has announced fast zooms for micro four thirds, so you might want to look out for those. They have announced 12-35 f2.8 and 35-100 f2.8. |

Olympus already has E-PL3 available. They have what, 6 models now? I guess that's the reason they're trying to push E-PL1 out by reducing prices. |

And I think Sony should have done better and given the people nex-7 last year. A lot of people (couple of reviewers as well) are now thinking of getting an X-Pro1 instead of Nex-7. A big hit for sony if this happens. |

The thing that I have been waiting for the most is the price fall in X100. It finally seems to be happening. |

In case of Canon when the XXX-D cam comes out, eg 500D, it costs 45000. When the next version comes after 1 year, the 550D becomes 30-35K and the 550D becomes 45K. |

In your comment you mentioned, you won't buy Olympus because the prices drop quickly. and canon Nikon do not drop prices. I wanted to say that in entry level space, as soon as next version is launched, canon and nikon do drop prices. This fluctuation is more drastic in entry level than at mid or high level. |

Now, I am looking at UWA options. Samurai san, how do yo like your 9-18mm? I really want that Panasonic 7-14mm, but there's no option of adding filters to it :(. |

I love my Sony Nex5. Great great camera in a small size. Have managed to get two Olympus Zuiko prime lens's for cheap and am using them with an adapter. Learning curve is not as steep as I thought, but still tough. Enjoying every bit of it. With the latest firmware, the focus peaking feature really helps to use manual lens's. |
