There is talk of Olympus releasing a low priced kit version of the 300
with the 24-45 & 50-140 lenses AND offering a rebate. This might
temporarily help sales - but, as usual, Olympus offer too little, too
late.


The strangest part of this is thet Oly told us that
the new fantastic 4/3 system had some extra ordinary
properties that made it superior - that the real advantage
was that it was the choice of professionals that wanted
a tool that produced outstanding results. It was lots
of talk of tele centric lenses etc, etc, ... The site was
full of fashion photography made by very good photographers.

And now? Cheap cameras and lenses to try to save the system.
Back to the roots - amateurs.
