I think it's a very fine camera but too expensive though. The pricing is about 25% over the edge compared to the competition.
And it's another example that Olympus does not understand the mass market. I'm slightly wondering about the target volume for this camera.
It's certainly a nice upgrade - especially the weak AA filter - but they won't sell many for sure. The 1000+EUR/US$ zone is just not their territory.

Well, I know that at least a few NG photographers use the E3, so I guess that may be their target market? <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
