Once upon a time the automatic dust cleaning may have been a USP for Olympus but those days are long gone. In a way, I am glad to see that the E5 is such a yawner because it means that the value of my E3, currently being sold by Ffordes in the UK on consignment, will not fall too much. I am pretty sure this is the end of the standard 4/3 system. The MFT is an altogether different, and much tastier, kettle of fish.
