It's about time! > > Chris Put a pancake in front of this and any number of DSLR bodies and you've got an entirely different beast. A beast of the non monster sort. More of a bobcat. But it helps if one is available. This has been a gripe of mine with the 4/3 systems for some time. And even the way most 1.5 crop systems have been marketed. And implemented. I often have a simple prime wide or 45mm pancake in front of my main axe which for a year now has been a Nikon D40x. If I put a zoom on it I often have to switch my side bag to a bigger one to accommodate it. The best camera is the camera you've got with you. A camera at home is a waste. Pentax is the best at this. They have a full line of pancakes, wide, normal and tele. That reminds me I'm low on confectionaries sugar. Helps spread the highlights. Mark William Rabiner markrabiner.com
