thank you olympus i have been waiting for this camera body for quite a while and it has met my expectations!
from harold67, reviews.cnet.com
the main difference of the olympus system is that it use the 4/3 system, offering a 4:3 ratio that matches better the images ratio (8x10 and others) for print or magazines purposes
from Jeff Keller, www.dcresource.com
all things considered, the olympus e-3 is a solid midrange digital slr, in more ways than one.
