Splendid. Was this with the Olympus. Tell us about it!
See, I have not the knoweldge and skills like Bart or Cem in that field, I am just a learning photographer using a box, and dare I say, my eyes and soul I was given, however, here is my 0.2 cents.
While the Zuiko Digital lenses are amongst the very best that you can get in the DSLR world across all other the brands in my opinion, Olympus has a problem, which they hopefully adress in one way or the other, and if you think what ressourceful compnay they are, I have hope they will.
Last not least, they are, again in my opinion, amongst the most innovative players in the field. Establishing a complete new standard, as if that alone is not bold enough, they come up with stuff like their anti dust system, life view, an LCD that can be used to compose your pics, meaning flip the screen 180 degrees horizontal and then turn it vertical, amazing! On top they designed body and lenses from the ground up digitally, talk about a monster act of R&D!
Then again, like with all systems these days in DSLR, you will have both, strong points and weak points.
In case of the latest Olympus flagship, and just to make it quick as I am really really tired, it is the sensor giving them a headache. Crop 2.0, densly packed, 4/3 is giving them a headache with respect to DN, digital noise. Mostly appearing in the blue channel, it is even possible at ISO 100, depending on the light conditions, regardless what Top Notch ZD lense is used.
However, it all is a balance act, and at the moment I do not have the needed tools for optimizing, in the case of the E3 it would be noiseware professional I suppose.
However, I really love those ZD lenses, they were the main reason I bought into Olympus in the first hand, and only recently Nikon emerged with a VERY good 24mm lense that can be taken into the same league as the ZD 7-14mm f/4.0. - To the best of my knowledge, no other DSLR player has a wide angle lense on offer in this quality for example, I stand to be corrected!-
Enough of that... LOL... I am not into all that deep enough, so take it with a grain, no, make that a shovel of salt, it is also not my interest in the first hand.
I am just a guy with a camera and a desire....
