What “Non-detachable VF contact” mean? I’m french so might not understand, but is there a VF or not?
Or can we plug the EP2’s one?
No video seems unlikely. Most compact cameras have video, don’t they? So who will upgrade to a camera without video?
I can say one thing and one thing only – IF OLYMPUS WILL USE THAT STUUUUUPID LCD (230,000) I AM GONE… DAMN IT, WTF? WHYYYYY OH WHYYYYY OLYMPUS CAN’T USE A BETTER LCD? F#CK THE BATTERY ENERGY! I WANT A HIGH RESOLIUTION LCD AAAAAAND I DON’T KNOW IF THAT IS JUST ME BUT I WANT TO SEEEEEEE SOMETHING IN THE PREVIEW MODE THEN IT’S A SUNNY DAY!!!! DAMN I AM ANGREE…
Edgaras Anisimenko, I don’t agree with you. They have a very good EVF.
To achiinto: I was talking about the classic 4/3. I think E-5 should have a better LCD. I don’t like a lot of things about m4/3 and one of the things is the low resoliution LCD compared with panasonic… I am just really angry with the fact that Olympus always says that x2 crop factor is good for nature photography but the LCD performs pore in sunny days
