AG, Bill, Simon, Ian.
Cost of E-1 upgrade is major factor. Having handled 510 my major
gripes are : card slot door seems very easily opened
Info on right of viewfinder harder to see than E-1 which
has info below viewfinder image.
Viewfinder does NOT seem as good as E-1.
On E-1 successor would like : Tiltable / articulating screen
professional build quality
Better VF than 510.
BUT major factor is that (in the UK at least) The price could be
prohibitive for me...at least 30 % markup over US prices.
I WANT to wait for E-1 replacement but do not know if I will be able
to afford it...or justify it...for hobby use. :-O
