"Heavy duty plastic." What does that mean? How does the author know
it's "heavy duty?" It could be the same polycarb rejected CD scrap
Sony uses for camera bodies. The author here is basically trying to
defend a heavily under-spec'd camera that is out of its league at the
price-point it occupies. Photonet is better off dealing with
processing black and white film.
P.S; I tried the E-30. It sure doesn't feel solid to me, not like
the D300 or the 50D. It doesn't even feel as solid as smaller plastic
DSLRs that probably have stronger bodies by virtue of their smaller
panel dimensions.

Although it’s constructed of heavy duty plastic and doesn’t have the
weatherproofing of the E-3’s magnesium alloy body, the E-30 feels
solidly built.

It's finally happened.

Rich, you have run out of thingsa to bitch about and now you have to
turn to the symantics of advertising.

Maybe it's time you turned your "consumer Protection" skills to
another demographic or marketing verticle?

Or maybe it's just time that you gave it a rest?
