My E-510 weeps,....along with a few lenses that I am not buying adapters for to fit the micro 4/3 stuff.]]>Apr 21st 2010 4:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
Additionally, the short register of MFT means you can pretty much use any legacy 35mm lens with a suitable adapter, of which 3rd party manufacturers have immediately exploited.]]>Apr 21st 2010 11:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
They did if they wanted to go mirrorless. Most of the advantage is making the camera bodies slimmer, since the distance between the lens and the sensor is less when there's no mirror mechanism getting in the way.

If you want to use SLR lenses, you have to make up for that distance, so it was either adapters, or just making the bodies SLR thick.]]>Apr 21st 2010 11:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
Olympus has aid that they feel that the 4/3s lens lineup is more or less complete. They, more or less, cover the entire zoom range at every grade of lens. There are a couple holes, but in those cases you can either move on up or move on down for a different lens.

I think there are more than enough 4/3rds lenses. The problem is that they are so damn expensive compared to Canikon lenses that are easy to rent, buy used, buy Sigmas, etc.

I still love my E 510 though, the 14-42 and 70-300 get me by. I wish I could get the 50mm prime and one of the wide angles(fat chance on the 7-14), but the 50mm is $400, the WA are $600 and $1400 and the 50-200 tele I want is $1000.]]>Apr 21st 2010 12:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/What you say is true. That said, camera bodies don't last forever. In fact they typically are outdated long before lenses are. At least in this scenario you can buy a new MFT body and use your old FT lenses on it with full function.

“[Mobile phones] will in the very near future revolutionize the market for system cameras.

Ei oo pelkoa :D]]>Apr 21st 2010 5:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/Apr 21st 2010 5:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
You are really joking or you are only referring to a small photo. Even the different in image quality between a prosumer and a DSLR can be easily realise, it is not possible for an iphone photo to be closed to a DSLR.

For those people who only need small sized photo, they will only buy a P&S. For those people who bought an expensive DSLR, they want something much more than what a phone or even a prosumer camera can produce.]]>Apr 21st 2010 6:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
It basically makes the video recording feature pretty much useless.]]>Apr 21st 2010 6:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
Compression. Raw video would fill your memory in 2 seconds flat. Also allows them a mea culpa on terrible video quality. Let's look at the bright side though, better than quicktime!]]>Apr 21st 2010 10:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
The G2 uses AVCHDLite. Pony up the $200 if you want it.]]>Apr 21st 2010 12:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
Using h.264 / AVC-HD makes much more sense. I realize that the higher end cameras use that, but it seems like a ridiculous feature to cut from the budget models.]]>Apr 21st 2010 8:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/Apr 21st 2010 9:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/Apr 21st 2010 1:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/panasonics-lumix-dmc-g10-camera-finally-gets-the-review-weve-b/
