Quick Question!

Why the gosh darn are you waiting till AFTER you've bought the camera to ask for advice?

There's nothing wrong with it. Being a 4/3rds camera, it has a set of unique advantages and disadvantages, like any good camera. It's capable of taking great photographs if you are.

Did you just say "gosh darn?"

>>85476
Yeah, basically what I figured. It's not like I didn't do research before buying.

Yeah, it was a good substitute for "Why were you so fucking stupid as to..."

Sorry, but spilling dosh before you research/ask for advice is not a mistake you want to make too often, especially in a field as expensive as this one.

one of the few photographers i know who actually makes money with a camera butters his bread with an E-500.

so, y. it's certainly better than a D40.

now do yourself a favor and get some konica hexanons to stick on there.

and also, how the fuck did someone who says "gosh darn" make it onto 4chan? seriously, that's like a lamb wandering into a woodchipper.

who cares what fucking camera you use. If you can't make a decent image you can talk about cameras all day and you're still a talentless hack posting bullshit after bullshit on /p/.

I have an E-500. It's good for sticking various old manual lenses on it.

You should've gotten the superior E-330 instead, though - the price is nearly the same now.

My farther uses Olympus SLRs (film and now digital) the old film ones were ok and with good film had great colours but the new DSLRs have a horrible plastic lightness to them and pisspoor image stabalising.

the Alphas are seriously superior and have a much better lense selection, let alone Canon/Nikon...

There are at least six AF primes (that's not counting the ridiculously priced 300/2.8, 150/2 and 25/1.4), plus it takes literally hundreds of manual primes via adapters. Does that count as "non-existent"?

If Olympus is "horrible plastic", I wonder what your dad thinks about Canon Rebels... XD

Hey here's a horrific posibility, I might have been joking.
