Ah, but 'tis an Olympus in sheep's clothing.
With a Leica design lens, presumably. Looks nice.
The lens just might make it for me, being reasonably fast and
having Panasonic's OIS Image Stabilization.
Yes. This is pretty much what I expected to happen, although I didn't
know about the Oly 330 body when I was speculating. Panasonic on
chips, Oly on body design, Leica on lenses. Able to use all the
existing Oly lenses too (and Stigma just announced about, what, five
or six new lenses for the Oly system too). Whoever did the styling on
this one did a great job in my opinion ... it's very sleek and modern
looking. I like it a lot.
But I'm patient and I like the Pentax lenses I've bought. The *ist D2-
or-whatever-they-name-it will do nicely.
Guess I should sell the rest of the Canon equipment, eh? ];-)
