Surely you can appreciate that no system is perfect or suited to every photographer's need.
I think the point of this thread was that The Rebel XT won best entry level DSLR, which may be very well the case(it being the best entry level dslr). Someone else said that they felt the Oly E-500 was a better entry level DSLR for the value of the two lens kit. Which may or may not be the case
I am sure olympus is terribly sad to have lost a customer and honestly, I am sure you are one of many that were upset that the legacy lenses lost their functionality on the new system. I do believe there were alot of PO'ed canon users when they changed their mount to make a superior AF lens system.
I think this is the direction Olympus hopes to go. To make a superior digital lens system. There are always unhappy people with change. That is probably why so many die hard film users feel that digital is the devil! |
I never said that. I think that the Olympus is an EXCELLENT and INNOVATIVE system, that is probably doomed to failure by idiotic marketing at the marketing 101 level. And when it fails, it will be a loss for everyone. And that will be sad.
