Hi Folks,
I Think By Now You Would Have Seen And Heard Of It. Yup!....The First Micro 4/3 Cam, Good Concept But The Price Is The Killing Factor For Me.......At RM2200 For A One Kit Set, It's Tooooooooo Expensive, and Fot That, One Can Easily Buy The E-520 Kit. No Denying it's a Wonderful Camera, But The Pricing Will certainly Put Lot's Of People Off. What A Bad Marketing Stragedy ( IMHO ). Anyway Here's Some Goodies For Your Eyes Only, Courtesy Of Digital Camera jp..........I Love The Blue One!!!....So Will Blu ( It's has True Live View ).......HaHa.......:rofl::rofl:........Enjoy.....I hope Oly's New Tweener Is Better Price Than This.........Thanks...Uncle James.

Well... sifoo.... can't say much on this but if a person is dang crazy... he'll buy anything at any cost.
Lucky me... I don't have $$$$ (and the crazy virus:D), else I'll buy the M8 with its 3 lenses-system.

mFT Lenses won't work on the FT Body. but FT Lenses may work on the mFT body.

And I am not impressed..Think it's confirm..Leica is out of FourThird. None of those lenses are Leica. They are LUMIX G.

yeap.. no leica badge on the lenses. leica has really left the FT consor***m. Looks like panny is making the same mistake again of high prices, similar to both the Lumix L-1 and L-10. i think it (coupled with a 10x super zoom kit lens) should be priced similar to the Pana FZ series compact, since this model is probably replacing it. That's why most ppl aren't leaving their PnS because all they need is that 10X superzoom. they're not interested in buying more lenses or external flashes. giving them a standard 14-45mm 3x zoom, i don't see how different is this from olympus if offering in the E-420 and 14-42mm. Big disappointment IMO.
