Yep, C.H. does photograph some might nice young flowers all right. And he
certainly does prove that his cameras work. I suspect he might just be able
to make almost anything work though. /jmac

If I really need to work fast I can use the dedicated lens with auto stop
down, for snap I will use my Zuiko 18 with preset focus, for portrait I just
focus at the shooting aperture, they are usually F2 to F4, no problem at
all. If I can work slowly, stop down is perfectly fine. I have some
landscape friends who take every shot with tripod, obviously manual stop
down is not a problem for them too. My shooting result proof it works:

If you all are talking about convenient, AF, IS... you should jump ship long
ago, C*non has IS since 95 and AF was at the end of 80's why wait until
today? Why stick with the manual focus OM system?

You all talked about how the small, light and solid feel of OM bodies why
you now perfer the plastic body that feel like a toy!? I choose 10D because
it feel sold and not too heavy. I really perfer the E-System, it possess the
characters of the OM System, ok... except the tiny viewfinder. Now I'm just
waiting for the right time to jump in.
