    I got the E620 is a little different from the E410, same sort of thing though, looks the same and feels the same, 4 frames per sec is a little faster too for those Rollercoaster shots, cant wait to get the IS going soon through my 400mm prime when the weather picks up, that is why I upgraded.

    Wayne I am watching your space on my favs list...Get shooting !!!

    Happy New Year!!! Chen

    I have bought the E30 but it left America on the 23rd and has not landed yet according to the tracking system, not sure which way it is coming Wink

    PEN e-p2
    Took it out this morning for the first time & got some shots in the local supermarket!
    20mm panasonic f1.7 lens, no flash and very discrete to use in public.
    Have just looked at the RAWs and am impressed (can only compare with my 5D).
    Will post something tomorrow hopefully.

    My E30 arrived today. Had to pay £85 VAT and handling before I could pick it up. Hope nothing goes wrong with it there is no international warranty.

    First impressions are good, it is lot heavier than I expected. The dials are in different positions to the E510 but I am sure I will get used to them.

    Now I just need to start practising how to use it.

    I've been playing around with a Ricoh compact more seriously last few days and it's made me want an Olympus Pen or Panasonic version. Looking forward to seeing how you get on with it.

    anyone know how to use a off camera flash and cause the pictures back ground to be blacked out from the primary subject. i want to under expose the background to the point it will be solid black.

    get the flash as close to your subject as possible (and you may want to diffuse it) and leave as much space as you can between the subject and background.

    I went shopping for a cardreader this morning and ended up fondling one of these... another one who will be watching with interest!
