Look to the image posts from Ben Herrmann about halfway down the

So why are you bringing this up here and not on the Olympus group
on
dpreveiw?

Scott

It has been well-covered in that forum, to the tune of 103 posts.
But
the same condition afflicts others on this forum. Willful ignorance
about system flaws and attacks on those who mention them. I just
thought this example was particularly funny given the "proof"
offered
to the contrary. I can't fathom the reason behind the blindness.
For
instance, I own Olympus and I've never disputed certain truths about
the brand, such as their high ISO noise and restricted dynamic
range.
You take the good with the bad.

And yet amazingly you scream and screech here and other places about
flaws
in other camera, goose!!

Yes(?), same thing, pointing out FLAWS in cameras, not hiding from
them. Is that a difficult concept for some?

No we live with them and understand that any camera and system will have
its
FLAWS but we choose the one we can live with and then go out and take
photos
rather than having to tell EVERYONE about the flaws from EVERY other
system.

How does this tie-in with your criticisms of the Olympus system then?

Only ever in answer to your ravings mate. And seeing as how you bought up
the Oly "system", WTF is it with the design of the strap attachment points
on the E410, some engineers are effing idiots.
