The E-3 processing engine is quite a bit better than the other 4/3 and
micro 4/3 cameras. It is after all, their pro/semi-pro camera.
What I don't understand is why can't I make a statement that "for my
purpose, my E-3 pics are comparable to my M8 pics" without people
telling me that the Leica must be superior :-)?
