One other detail I'd like to mention is that I really prefer the aspect
ratio of 4/3. A subjective matter, naturally. I think it is really silly,
this craze in movies and television for the very wide screen, which may suit
the sweeping landscape, but very often looks ridiculous and sacrifices the
depth and vertical interest that scenes often provide. The 3/2 aspect ratio
just begins to fall into that category.
Because of this preference of mine, the 4/3 CCD is worth an extra 12.5% for
me, so my 5 MP works for me like 5.625, and the next Oly at 10 MP (?) will
be like 11.25 MP. Not a big deal, granted. I hear someone saying "a day
late and a dollar short." :~|
