L8r

Well, I've gone fishin'—for real this time. I decided I needed a real vacation, so I'll be offline (gasp!) and away from my computer (double gasp!) for the next week. And actually doing some real fishing. I won't be maintaining the site during that time, and will not be able to post any comments. It remains to be seen whether I can actually survive offline and computerless for that length of time, but then, I could probably go a week without food and water if I had to. (And that might be easier.) I hope if you stop by you can find some tasty stuff in the archives to occupy you. See you l8r!

Mike -

As both a photographer and fisherman, I'll expect to see some fish pictures when you return.

:-)) offline is always a good idea, but so precisely in time to miss the most promising update of the 4/3 story - M....4/3, well done :-)). Those news, or better: the various options those news can offer might reanimate your former expectations about the future of those a bit smaller sensors, which got seemingly shattered by the Nikon-"ff"-retro-initiative, right?
Best regards, happily waiting for your pro-con-analysis

Mike, you leave for one week and look what happens, a new mount is introduced, heralding the arrival of miniature SLRs:

Maybe you should leave more often :-)

Hey Mike: Hope you are having a great vacation, but when you get back you have to assess the impact of this: http://www.four-thirds.org/en/microft/index.html#SlideFrame_2 on the future of the DMD.

Ha! While the cat's away...

One step closer to the DMD?

Seems like you took the wrong time to go on vacation. Your camera is almost ready, sir:

Let's start a rumor:

1) The new Micro 4/3 camera will have a big, bright viewfinder.

2) It will be called the DMD-1.

3) The first camera off the assembly line will be given to the guy who inspired it.

Enjoy your new camera, Mike.

You're back. Whew...I was going through withdrawal.

And while you were out...m4/3. You missed it. Aughhh...
