OM-D!

Dave,
I am obsessed with the new OM-D, but have not seen one in person. Really interested to know your experience.

I was not sure that I would get on with the EVF but am getting used to it. I was able to handle one at a dealers and a forum meet in the UK, able to take some shots with one, that helped me make up my mind. It is lighter than my E5 which is the main reason I got one, got fed up lugging a weighty E5 around. IU will keep my E 5 and 300mm for bird shots but probably gradualy change over most of my gear to micro 4/3rds. Shutter is very quiet, AF is good. I will post a high ISO shot on here for you to have a look at.
One drawback is that I have had to update my software, had to pay for an upgrade to Lightroom, Olympus SW is way too slow for me, and I am used to LR.
Hope you will be able to get hands on with one, don't think you will be able to resist then:-), I couldn't.
