That would not be an E-500. It would be E-5 or at worst E-50. That is if your camera would look like E-500 at all. Personally I don't want to pay extra for #1, #3, #4. The increase from the present 3fps in RAW to 5 fps makes no difference. With todays memory prices it should not be less than 10 fps, however, I understand the biggest problem is CPU power and not the buffer limit. More MP means more data/image to transfer to larger memory. Also, a larger fps drives the shutter to end of life faster, so you'd need a better shutter also. Another reason why a camera like that should be called E-5 or E-50.
Very good point.I'm really learning here.
Finally someone pointed out that IS means added cost.
Fortunately (and if the rumours are correct), we would soon have an option of an IS and non-IS body.
5fps sounds reasonable and we should be seeing that.
Where noise levels are concerned, the less in-camera processing the better! Let me decide how much noise reduction I want (if at all!).
100% viewfinder would be tough and expensive to implement; again added cost and would take away sales from the actual pro bodies, so I don't think we're going to get them in the E-410 or 510.
Oh yes, and then there's Live View... now this one I'm willing to pay for! :bsmilie:

cheapo ! :sweat: everything don't want... only the one you want most... but that is also something I want in the new mini!
The E-4xx + 11-22... the ultimate holiday camera!

Not that easy a lens to use. The pincushion distortion on the extreme ends. I would prefer the 14-54 or the 14-50 (Leica).

If it were up to me and only ONE upgrade could be implemented - I'd go with IS.
To me - that'd make the bigest difference for Oly at this point.

it is one of the must buy lens for 4/3 system. what pincushion? :nono:

Maybe IS will not be build into every cam body in their line-up...
IS or no IS, the Leica lens is pretty capable too in itself yeah?
Since Oly and Pana have an on-going colaboration, dun think Oly will "snook" Pana/Leica like that...
My 2 cents...
Let's come up with a 'super body' wishlist... here's my newbie's wishlist:
1.) Canon noise-reduction circuitry.
2.) Fuji SuperCCD for greater dynamic range.
3.) Oly dust shaker or Sigma out-of-focus dust barrier.
4.) In-body IS (Pentax or KM-Sony?).
5.) Big bright viewfinders
6.) Liveview but direct from main (only?) image sensor.
7.) Takes AA batteries!!
8.) Wireless (Bluetooth? WiFi?) connectivity for data transfer and remote triggering.
9.) 9,12 or more points fast AF.
10.) Magnesium alloy chassis.
...
Wow! :bigeyes: :bsmilie: Apart from taking AA batteries (which I think it is not feasible for a dSLR) the rest are possible... It will cost a bomb! :sweat:
Ya lor. Too much to be paid in cross-licensing fees...
Oh, and:
11.) RSP must be no more than S$3k... ;p
The Pentax K100D/K110D?
But with the recent K10D, Pentax switched over to a proprietary lithium-ion pack instead.
My BLM-1 battery only has 1500mAh of 'juice'. Rechargeable AA batteries nowadays already come in 2000-2700mAh capacities.
Yes, but the BLM-1 also have 7.2 Volts. If I am to get 7.2V using AA I need 6 batteries. That is a lot of weight I can do without. Better to reduce the power needed than to increase the battery size and capacity. The weight of one BLM-1 is about the same as one single AA, so actually by connecting two BLM-1s in paralell you'd get 7.2V and 3000mAh. using three times that weight (6 AA batt) gives you 2700mAh only. So, AA is not a good solution.
Just my 5c...
Should have just pasted the link instead of copy the whole text. From what I read I thought TS spoke to Oly Sin.
You're quite right; what they really should do is produce AA-size Lithium-Ion batteries.
Not sure if it's possible though.

Talked to a Grandcell battery manufacturer not too long ago. That is possible but the risk of explosion was too high a risk hence it was scraped. Li-ion needs a regulating device inside the battery or it will discharge too fast for practical use.
