[Leica] [OM] IMG: The Old Way

[Jim Nichols]

Thanks for the comments, Dennis.  If I need higher ISOs, or a cropped 
image, I go with the Fuji X-T2.  But, for closeups of flowers, etc, the 
older sensors are fine, and, especially with the E-1, the colors are 
hard to beat.  Mine is still an active player.
