Interesting Brian. Derek Forss writes articles for OlympUser, the
magazine for the Olympus Camera Club in the UK. As I have remarked
before, this is edited/run by Ian Aston, one of the employees of
Olympus UK.

Hi
A holiday brochure has landed on the breakfast table from a company
who started out as a provider of organised walking holidays in the UK.
I was interested to note that the blurb for some special interest
holidays called 'Discovering Digital Photography' says that 'you get
to try and test Olympus Digital Cameras'. The blurb on another
called 'The Digital Darkroom' includes 'working with an editing
programme such as adobe Photoshop'. The holidays are also advertised
on the web at
http://www.hfholidays.co.uk/photography/index.asp
The blurb on one of the course leaders, Derek Forss, says that 'His
digital photography is supported by Olympus and his lectures by
Hasselblad (UK) Ltd.
I have no recent experience with HF Holidays although I had several
happy walking holidays with them when I was younger and fitter. The
holidays might be an opportunity for those of us with OMs to try
digital with Oly digitals without buying them - but the adverts do not
say which digitals. Anyway, it looks as if Olympus might be cranking
up its marketing machine?
