The dynamic range however is limited. But still beats any film. Do you always whine this much? That's right, you've never used any camera in your lifetime. You have a right to whine.

The quantum efficiency of standard sensors is the the 30% range. -- Alfred Molon ------------------------------ Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |
