That will be an interesting camera when it hits the shelf. I must admit I like the E-P1 as a "bootleg" camera. If the Sigma DP1/DP2 had better video performance, I would have been all over a DP2 though. I'm curious to see if Sigma stuff that newer Foveon in an updated version.

"Chimping" bride . . . I just had to say it. :tongue:

If you want the open source competitor of P.S., take a look at GIMP 2.6.11 at GIMP - The GNU Image Manipulation Program I primarily use CS3 but over the years, adobe has started to annoy me kind of like paying Al Capone protection money.

My wife has an LX3 as her primary digital camera and I have an E-P1 as my main compact.
