If you look at a famous painting, you don't wonder what brand of brushes the now-decomposing artist used. Of course, if you go to a painters forum, you'll see passionate debates about which brand of brush to use.

Only a poor craftsperson blames their tools, but a good craftsperson will tend to get better results with better tools.

I'm primarily a film shooter, even though outside of photography, I'm quite "digital". My tastes in cameras are best described as somewhat idiosyncratic. I like to own reasonably priced cameras that can be made to produce excellent results.

The Online Photographer: Olympus E-P1 'Digital Pen' Officially Announced(via)
Okay, feeling digital camera lust for the first time in at least a year.

I'll write more about this later...
My thoughts on the Olympus E-P1
Several years ago, I looked up how big the old APS film cameras were, under the assumption that, given that a dSLR is the same size as an old film SLR, it will eventually be possible to make an APS-C digital camera the same size as an old APS film cmaera. This turns out to be awfully small, especially with a prime lens. I also eventually read about the Olympus PEN series. And the Pentax Auto 110 SLR system.
The E-P1 to Scale(via)
The Online Photographer provides a size comparison for the E-P1.

I'm betting that I can pocket it, based on that.
