Guys, you are forgetting the space and time continuum. Surely olympus should already have an answer to that, no?

I'm also very torqued !!!
No built in mp3 player, no gps, no Dolby pro in the movie mode, and what's with the grip being for right-handed people only. Why do I have to pay extra for weather sealing, my camera rarely leave the house. And that "hump", p-l-e-a-s-e don't get me started on that hump and that "retro' look, I would much prefer it to look like a futuristic avocado so people won't look at me as if I were a PRO photographer. Another thing that really eerks me, what's with silver and black bodies? Why not that futuristic avocado in some cool colors, like lime green / zesty orange, or goofy grape / hot pink.
I'm really disappointed, I think Olympus REALLY missed the boat on this one.
:r ofl:

The well established answer to the question of life the universe and everything is 42, so we're fine in that area.

I wasn't too crazy about the hump either, but given that this is an "OM", it was a logical thing to include a hump. It works for the overall "look" of the camera.

I prefer rangefinder looking cameras more, but unfortunately, we don't have a m4/3 that looks like a RF with built in EVF. IMO, adding a clip-on EVF on a Pen or the GF/GX camera is uglier than the hump on the OMD.

On a not so serious note, I wish Oly would have given us a yellow colored body like the Pentax K01!

I think its a case of the emporers new clothes, just damn ugly. I quess it will gradually evolve into a more rounded camera on future models....ohh a G3

I'm not at all complaining about the battery. You must not buy Panasonic! A new battery with every new camera (and chipped to boot!). I'm still using the same battery type in my EPM1 that was used in my EP1, over 2 1/2 years ago. You can buy them for like $5.

On the flip side, it's about time they came up with a new battery! Maybe this one will last a bit longer??

Speaking of batteries, I wonder if their battery grip will also take AA batteries? Anyone seen any info on that?

I don't like the look either and that is why Fuji now has my full attention. Looks like I'm selling a bunch of lenses, again.

Is this a joke? We live in three dimensions with six degrees of freedom and Oly is correcting five out of those six. The last one is in-out aka focus, and you probably don't want IS trying to compenate focus.
