I took the E-10 down to my local store in Huntington. They have a Kodak /

They took a picture of a customer in the HQ mode (1:8) and then printed
it. They thought it was the best digital sample they've ever seen. It was
so sharp you could count the threads in the collar of his t shirt.
Had a similar experience at the local McBain's camera store (the flagship,
for those of you in Edmonton who care, on 107th Ave. & 109th St.). They
took an E-10 file and output it on Olympus' new dye-sub printer (around $2K
CDN). An astonishing picture, so sharp you could cut yourself wide open on
it, and essentially indistinguishable from an 8x10 colour glossy.
