HeHeHe.......Sounds of Harry Secombe and other Goon show members in the
distance......I have just booked to go to Colorado Springs in the summer for a
family wedding in Bozeman, Montana. Wonder what B+H will be selling body only
for by then. After buying my Panasonic G2 I vowed that I did not NEED any
other cameras! BUT it is very tempting as a body to fit my Panasonic 14/45 and
20mm lenses onto, along with my Leica "M" and Voigtlander lenses. Hmmm time to
get saving...

I'm tempted to say 'they'll never be able to hold that price', but they
have (more or less) with the E-5, which should be half its current cost.
Pretty camera though, with some nice touches, like the five-way IS and
nifty grip/battery holder. And enough pixels for an amateur/enthusiast,
unless they're kidding themselves.
If it was 750UKP body only, I'd be pushed to pass it up.
