Explain please. You must be talking about focal lengths of lenses you

You've come a long way from the OM-2S, my friend. ;)

The MP is not a problem for me.
The C8080 helped me to an appreciation of an onboard EVF. Lummox FZ20,
which I still use, has this and the sweetest little LV focusing aid in
manual-focus mode (if it just had more pixels -- the EVF I mean). Both
have live histogram as well. A contemporary camera with features like
that would bring me full-circle in terms of my entire experience in
digital photography. It's exciting.
But I'm still actually quite happy with E-3 and 410. I'd kind of like
to find a good 400 before I quit SLRs. And a couple killer DZs. And an
E-5. Oh cr*p. There it goes.
