thanks they barely resemble the originals which i uploaded but didn't touch. The E300 is a surprisingly good little 8mp camera (and an SLR with a VF in the spot traditionally associated with a rangefinder - I really liked that despite the smallish finder. I think the big thing for me was moving up to better software, back then I used CS2 and poorly (self taught)

Not micro 4/3rds but 4/3rds - same sensor size different mount my old now stolen Olympus E300 grand daddy to the format
3 shots of Rome at night - raws I recovered from a crashed drive to replace the stolen drive ones. Processed today shot in 2008 . My pp skills and software have improved somewhat

Afeter a few days the 12-50 is actually not the most impressive (though it's macro is pretty good. I have a Fuji X-E1 coming as an alternate to try before i make the system commtiment. AFAIK the Fuji kit lens is probably the best kit lens anywhere, but to be realistic for me it doesn't matter, mthe kit lens is for my wiofe to use the camera, I will be almost exclusively primes. I tried the 75 1.8 in the shop yesterday. it's very sharp and has nice bokeh, the one thing I think I miss on the m 4/3 so far is the ability to get either razor thing dof (I use a 50 1.4 and an 85 f2.0 for that on the Pentax - and i cannot get that limited dof with the OMD so far (there is always the voigtlander i guess) or if I stop down to a m 4/3 equivalent (say 2.8 vs the 1.8) razor sharp edge to edge with still good bokeh
The Fuji may be my solution for both size and creative we'll see (there are a ton of things I like about the Oly though - If I stick with the system though I think it will be with theOMD E10 vs the 5 I'm trying as it comes with the better of the 2 kit lenses and costs less (and if I need to shoot in the pouring rain I still have my K7 with the WR kit)

Hey Robin
Long Time (I've been off here for almost 2 years) I just picked up the EM5 with the 45 1.8 thanks to your Flickr. When the rest of my break in settlement comes I'll expand the kit to cover a number of other lenses (12/17/25/60/75) I'm really impressed with it so far. need to grab an adapter for my Pentax Lenses that weren't stolen. I'll keep My k7 and a film body to shoot native but that will be rare if the OMD is as good as it seems after a weekend
