I tried the Olympus 10 & 20 in a professional shop and both would stop after 6 shots for 15 seconds to load the images from the camera memory to the disc. No matter what setting we had the camera on, did the guy not know what he was doing?

Also a couple of other pro photographers in Prague bought the O-20 and they said it slowed down even more at the end of the day, which I suppose could be the battery.

I would love to buy two for the net piictures and stop all this F***ing scanning.

If you want a good digital image remember it gives a flatter image than film, so overlight the rear of the model by half a stop minimum.

The beauty of digital is you can see what you are getting, before you commit to spend money. Shot a boy girl set just before Xmas, cost $1300. Got it back from the processors and found one of THE main lights is not firing consistant when it did fire.
SET WAS FUCKED TOTALLY

To who ever said it; Yes I am pompous, arrogant and probably rude.
But I do know how to take a picture. If you are big enough to get past my "attitude" you could learn something. Remember you did not have to be mates with a teacher to learn. Or be drinking buddies with a supplier, who can supply the right goods.
