Not yet,

I am on the market for a new camera and I like the concept of this, depending 
how the most important features to me are implemented.  

I really think that Sony is light years ahead of everyone in terms of offering 
really fine photographic instruments.  Olympus might be closing the gap with 
this camera, I dont know, but need to evaluate it.  So far it does not look so 
good...the articulating screen does not articulate enough for me, but I am also 
the one who calls for the abolishment of the viewfinder, so I guess I am very 
biased.

If their live view implementation is even remotely decent I would choose the 
Olympus over the Sony for finally getting it, but I doubt it. "Pros" in 
magazines still use the term "chimping" derogatorily and the ignorant crowd is 
influenced by it, so I doubt the engineers at Olympus have paid much 
attention.  They haven't got a clue...yes, "pros" included.  It just shows that 
from time to time it just goes the other way around:  The engineer opens the 
door of new and exciting possibilities for the customer ie the artist.  It is 
up to the artist to get it tho...

Best

Boris

this subject come to be in this subject thread, which had until now no 
had camera related content whatsoever? Inquiring wise ass wants to know. ;-)
