[QUOTE="skater, post: 480269, member: 19158"] No pictures of it, but we just bought an [URL="http://www.getolympus.com/us/en/e-m10.html"]Olympus E-M10[/URL], along with the zoom lens, for my wife (primarily). This is, basically, to get her away from using the D70 when she wants to be a bit more serious than the point-and-shoot, but still not have the weight and bulk of a full DSLR. We were in Best Buy about getting my D7000's focus worked on, and got looking at cameras for her, then realized we hadn't planned on which camera she would take along on an upcoming trip to Seattle, and we've been wanting to get her a better camera anyway. It's pretty damn light. The standard lens weighs almost nothing. I can think of a couple situations where I would've rather had that camera than my DSLR. It does raw files, too. :) We have a rule in our house that the first picture taken with a new camera must be of one of our cats. So, here is Minnie... (sorry it's not rotated correctly; this is straight out of the camera, JPG mode). [/QUOTE]
