>>157699 >I got my 14-54/2.8-3.5 for $200 and my 11-22/2.8-3.5 for $350. Yeah, but what I'm talking about is more along the lines of "I picked up my 80-200 f/4.5-5.6 at a flea market for $40" range. There's lots of used equipment, but there's not a lot of old and tired but still serviceable used equipment stretching back to the 80s (or, in Nikon's case, the 50s).
I will amend my other argument: Lack of cheap fast primes that can autofocus and don't require a cumbersome annoying adapter to use.
That being said, the Four Thirds system will give you (more or less) the same image quality that you can get with the other systems out there. They lack in the high end, and they lack in the legacy, but they have cheaper f/2.8 zooms than the big guys, and their low-end cameras have a size/weight advantage (especially when coupled with a delicious pamcaek). If the guy had asked how much the XTi sucks, I'd have been able to give him just as many reasons.
