Reuben -- I think you are moving a bit fast on this... Olympus states they
will maintain parts and service for several years for current bits, and it
is likely that service of high quality from such young people as John H.,
Ken and Clint will be around much longer than that. It seems to me that your
kit would be usable for a serious long time into the future without problem.
As to the question of reliability and availability... it seems to me that
the best current solution for that issue would be to invest in a backup body
or two... As you earn money from the equipment this is prudent in any case.
Am I an enabler or what...!
