Good points Lee. I agree that splitting the list would be a good idea.
It would make sense (to me) to have an Olympus film list (which would
include OM, XA, film P&S, ect) and a separate digital list for all
digital cameras. I suspect that opinions regarding this are pretty
divided on the list though.
