Olympus E-pl5

First impressions, not a bad little camera. This is my first 4/3 camera, the Olympus was in my price range. I did not want to invest big bucks (which I don't have) in a new camera system that I was not sure I would like. I like it for carrying while walking the dog, much easier on my old back than the F4s. I will keep it but would not consider another more expensive 4/3 system.

Why not?

It's an odd comment to make, as you don't give any reasoning for it. You wouldn't want a more expensive m43 camera because:
-you don't need a better digital camera (this does all you want)?

-you just don't want a more expensive digital camera (sticking to the F4 for 'important' photos)?

-you figure if you are going to get a more expensive digital camera it'll be well above the top m43 price range?

-you feel the m43 system doesn't compare to other systems at the higher price points?

Just does not fit my big hand and feels awkward. I like the photos from it, but I have a digital slr that I use mainly for color. Was hoping the wife would like the small size but she's happy with the camera in her phone. Short answer, personal taste.
