During the weekends.. I went to molest cameras... 550D, GF1 and E-PL1. Already using a S90 and FZ28... so a bit hesitant as to whether it's the right route.

If you want to be pro get 550D, light-pro GF1, casual E-PL1, but then you already got S90 why casual again? Just my 2 cents tongue.gif

Don't get me wrong... I love my S90 to death but both my cameras lacking a narrow DoF and a dslr is too much of a commitment. *sigh*

If kena lottery.. then problem solved --> M9 tongue.gif

Feel crying under low light  cry.gif . Can't even get focus (Perhap update firmware later may help). Higher ISO produces high noise and too reddish.

May speed up my timeline to get 20mm...hehee

Silver E-P2 it is...  thumbup.gif
E-PL1 is too plasticky for my taste and NEX is too 'modern' designed. I'm into old school design so sticking with the E-P2 for the time being... smile.gif
It's my travel and leisure camera anyways so it must be something I'm comfortable in using and show to the public...  laugh.gif
The great thing is many people thought I'm still shooting film when I'm with my E-P1+17mm+VF...  tongue.gif

Ditto that... damn Oly for deliberately handicapping the E-PL1. I sooooo want to love it but cannot.

Also it's about time Oly do go high res on the screen..Grrrrr..

high resolution = more battery power.

anyway can i trade in my black ep2 to get silver ep2? arghhh

I don't think so lor... for notebooks (which I'm more familiar) at least... they all consume the same power.

What's true is that higher resolution screens cost more money. Now that the NEX (the bigger high res screen, the bigger sensor) is out, it quite obvious now that the margins on the M43 is pretty high.

bigger screen and higher resolution would not consume more power?

Not significantly more so that anybody will notice. It's purely a jimat cost thing

we're cool... but the problem is, you don't know what you're talking about here...

How you evaluate whether Canon G11 taking in more lights than Olympus E-P2? How??? Did you check whether you
have the same setting between G11 and E-P2?

Don't have a freakin clue what you guys are discussing but as usual, some dingdongmark is in order

Cool Bro. Oh ya, it may sound like comparing ep2 with G11! Definitely ep2 is way way above g11, no doubt! And that's why I go for ep2 and trash G11! But the truth is, I have read some review that I dont remember where that it mentioned G11's light sensing ability has been pumped up and this is proven through my use of G11 for about 3 months. During that time, I was really amazed at G11's ability to handle low light, given its small size sensor. Imagine if they transfer this technology to its bigger brother, those big guns EOS series!  yawn.gif

Unfortunately I have sold off my G11 to upgrade to ep1 and now to ep2. May be I can still scavenge for some G11 photos and post them here later tonite.

cheers

Did you get your EP2 with the EVF?
Suddenly poisoned by the retro look.

Undecided as usual... 550D... GF1... E-P2... or stick with my teeny S90.

After my last trip, I realised the importance of having quick access to the controls.

Depends how/wat u gonna use the new camera for ... wat u wan to shoot. If ur S90 can already do wat u need, then no point upgrade right? laugh.gif

Gatal-ness... I love my S90 but it lacks the detail and depth of field of bigger sensor.
