For those of us who are not using one of those other types of cameras :P

There is a quarterly photo contest for Olympus users and I actually won something - whoo hoo! So if I can win, I'm sure the rest of you can too...

Good luck!

A deserving photo. Makes me think about rebelling against my Rebel and trading it for an E-520.

Yes,

yospiff, you should step away from the dark side and join us in Oly heaven hehe. I'm thinking I'd like an E-520 too.

Makes me wish I hadn't gone over to the dark side. I'm still entering my non-HDR'd version of Applied Geometry, to remind me of the days before Nikon.

...Not that they were better :P

I liked your non-HDR version better - thought it was a very good shot. I also loved your mathematics shot. That's another one to consider for later too. :)

I can enter again next month and I think I am going to enter my current FS just to see if it gets any consideration.

I cant post to that gallery cause they said this...

"We are not currently accepting photos shot with the E-1 or E-3 cameras in this gallery. For E-1 and E-3 user contest notifications, please join our Elite Club."

I joined the Elite Club when I got my E-3, but haven't done anything with it YET! Guess I should!

Hey, Michelle, thanks for the update -- I would have missed this thread otherwise! Congrats on your Oly win!

My first serious film camera was an Olympus, btw. :-)

This Oly was a surprise gift (and I was actually hoping for a Canon to be my first DSLR). So I thought, I'll learn how to take digital pics and then move on. So a month ago, my husband saw an ad for a deal on a Canon Rebel xsi (whatever that new one is), and I actually hem-hawed on it. Did some research. And decided that I really do like this camera. So I guess this Oly must be my first serious (digital) camera too lol.

Did not know about this site. Pretty cool. A Yoko Ono is listed as a pro. Not the same famous one we all know, but thought that was interesting. Thanks for the link.
