As does scanning film, except for the time spent. . . Four thirds certainly got more viable today. I'm going to seriously consider the Sigma 30/1.4 for my E-1. It may be heavy as the 14/54 zoom (or a can of dog food), but it's here, it's fast, and it's real. It seems to perform well on C and N cameras. As for the rest, it looks interesting, and the Leica 14-50 zoom with IS has some appeal. But I've already got the Oly 14-54. What I really wanted was a 25/2 or 1.4 (50 equiv.) I also wish the anti-aliasing filter on the E-1 was a little less aggressive. If someone comes out with an M-mount RF that has a longer base RF and a less than 1:1 viewfinder so I can see the frame lines of focal lengths I would most use, I'd seriously think of putting my dollars in that basket. The Leica DigiM would be great, but I doubt I can afford it. Hmmm. Scanning film still sounds good. Except for the time spent. . . (Da capo, ad infinitum. . . :-) --Peter
