1. Those are great!

A fine farewell.

[alfredo]

2. Thanks. The EPL-1 is a classic, but it is time to move on to something with

better AF, faster shutter speed, better low light performance, better IQ, and better dynamic range. I will pass this camera on to someone who could appreciate it.

4. It must be a HELL of a camera!

if it does you better that that!

Congratulations

BTW ... let me be the first on this thread to say . . . I could really appreciate your old one and give it a good home

[alfredo]

10. Another convert to micro 4/3?

12. It won't be as ergonomic as my old one, but some Sugru on the grip and it

should be OK.

15. Awesome pics!

You're making me want to get out in nature and capture the world

[alfredo]

16. Do it. Get out before the skeeters start hatching.

[Mz Pip]

17. Keep this camera

Just in case the new one doesn't work out. Hard to imagine pics getting much better than than these.

[alfredo]

18. I'm in no hurry to get rid of it. First I want to see if my niece wants it. She seems

to have a knack for composition.

[alfredo]

19. My new camera came today. Images will be posted sometime soon.

[ManiacJoe]

20. Sweet!

New toys are always fun. What did you get?

[alfredo]

21. Olympus EPM2. It's pretty basic, but it has a very good sensor. More adjustments are

handled on the screen not with buttons and dials (like the Sony NEX). I don't need them because I put my camera in Aperture Priority and boogie on. I changed the movie button to magnify, and enabled the supermenu. I'm ready to hit the streets.

[ManiacJoe]

22. Nice.

Photography is usually more about the photographer than the equipment. Your posts certainly show you know what you are doing, basic equipment or not. I look forward to seeing more of your work!

[alfredo]

23. Good glass, good sensor, good software, just makes it easier.

There were specific things I was looking for: faster AF, better low light response, higher shutter speed, and better dynamic range. The EPM2 offered those desired features.

I'm from the "you take a snapshot with a camera, but you make a photograph in the darkroom" school of thought. I don't need all those bells and whistles, they won't help me select an appropriate subject, or properly compose an image. The most important tool in the "darkroom" is the trash can, and the hardest tool to learn.
