Thanks, Earl. The flag is unfurled. :)
This I think is the essence of the article:
"It may be the case that a modern D-SLR with 10 to 12 MP and a lens
designed for 35mm photography or a lens adapted to the APS capture circle
will not produce better results than the combination of a small sensor and
a dedicated lens design, as for example the E-system of Olympus."
I think he's saying the "designed for digital" claim is meaningful, though
I don't think it will influence MP addicts. I'm still going to get "bigger
is better" SPAM.
I guess I could look it up, but he mentions "telecentricity" of the
E-series lenses. Can anyone explain what that means?
