    Rick_D replied to a thread Camera Topics Does Four Thirds need 'fixing' in Discussion

    I'd be very surprised if Adobe extended CS6 RAW support past this summer's PSCC rollout. It would be a break from their historical practice to do so,...

    Seconded. The damage looks more like a hurricane than a tornado, so widespread and intense is the wake. A more typical tornado is smaller and...

    Rick_D replied to a thread Camera Topics E-P5 in Discussion
    Looking back, the E-P1 was $750 so this is a lot of advancement for $250. Will it sell? Heck if I know. I like the O-MD concept with built-in EVF but...
