Yes, I know, but as Studio is the cipher to Olympus Truth, I've just
decided to put Lightroom on the shelf as I intend to shoot RAW only.

LOL! Like the color they see in their dreams? Seriously, since the
E-1 works so well as a studio camera, it won't have gotten that
reputation if it disappointed with regard to skin tones, etc. But
honestly, I don't feel that I was ever let down colorwise by the E-330
and its dreaded Panny sensor. I just dialed in the same settings I
used in the E-1. But I'm not a studio guy or a color honcho.
The E-3 offers a larger range of color options, while its stock
capture looks extremely accurate to me. I think I could order paint
for my house based on a jpg! But I'm not sure that's what people have
come to celebrate as "Olympus color." The E-1 is a great camera, but
the E-3 offers things I like well enough that I feel I can just enjoy
both.

So true.

Good thought.

You love Aperture more than I love Lightroom, which I was using only
as a RAW converter. I would think it might be good business for
Olympus to find a way to provide such a plug-in, particularly when
they send out a body for examination and/or review, with some
encouragement to use it to get the best out of the camera.
