Re: [OM] FF OM-D at Photokina?

I don't know what distance you normally shoot at doing concert 
photography but at 150mm and f/2.8 the depth of field at 20 feet even 
using 35mm CoC of 30 lines/mm is only 12".  Tighten up to 4/3 CoC and 
it's only 6".  How often will you actually be able to shoot at f/2.8?
