Jul 8th 2009 7:19PM A 'Touch has a much smaller screen, a considerably shorter battery life, and far inferior contrast under bright light.

Jul 8th 2009 7:15PM I sometimes read books on my WM phone. However the small size of the screen and poor contrast in daylight means its no substitute for a modern dedicated ebook reader like the Kindle.

Jul 8th 2009 7:13PM But there is still no netbook that can match the Kindle's battery life or daylight viewability.

Jul 2nd 2009 12:39AM Forget "Pen". Look at the product itself. This is the smallest digital camera with a "dSLR size" sensor and interchangeable lenses. It's literally small enough to fit in jacket pocket with the right lens.

Jul 1st 2009 6:11PM I use both film and digital. They each have their own advantages and drawbacks. Neither is a perfect substitute for the other IMHO.

Sure you could use this camera in that way. But then so could you with most modern dSLRs. And this camera does offer full manual controls as well. In fact it seems to outclass many entry level dSLRs in this area (eg. two command dials, quick access to ISO/WB/Shooting Mode/AF). Plus it has the bigger sensor AND interchangeable lenses.

Jun 28th 2009 11:54PM *Or rather I should say native lenses are designed around the format size. Since they won't work on a 135FF sensor.

Jun 28th 2009 11:52PM 2x is still much closer to APS-C, or even 135FF, than it is to the sensors used in most compact cameras. And native lenses are already designed around the crop factor anyways. It's only an issue when adapting other lenses.

Jun 28th 2009 4:12PM Olympus is already using a retractable design for the zoom lens. A few more millimeters into the body definitely won't make much of a difference.

Jun 28th 2009 4:08PM I'm a Nikon dSLR user myself, and yet I'm extremely excited for this camera. I'm certain to get one as a secondary, carry around camera.
