i didn't get that offer. figured it's better to get one brand new. as u said..warranty for digital stuff is important. these things are quite sensitive...so..decided not to take the risk.

Risk = gain.

The higher, the more the gain.
I got my E-10 8mths old at $1000. Managed to save $600 at the cureent retail price of $1600. I calculated that if it is spoilt the moment i brought it over, the repair should not cross $200. Even with a change of front element which is usually scratched for old camera, it should not cross $400.


I still gain...

btw, just curious. why do you guys in here call canon the 'dark side'?

Oh, that! Well...there's another moderator here called Klause who bought a Canon DC, so we jokingly said that he had defected from the Light side (Olympus) to the Dark side (Canon).

Switched camp, from Canon to Olympus.

Finally make up my mind, closed-one-eye and bought an Olympus C5050Z for myself, see it as my wedding anniversary/christmas/new year/birthday present, whatever, since they're all coming within the next 3 weeks.

Still learn to use all the menu functions & shortcut buttons. Hope I can make good use of it.

It's a good camera, but not sure about the photos quality, it's all depending on the photographer liao.
