Grey - well in order to qualify for an AF one has to be up and on the site before 12 noon - I am too busy waking up

Perhaps we have a misunderstanding around here, perhaps all the previous talk of slow AF related to our dismal April Fools efforts

Maybe I should help the girlfriend with her wine to help steady my two brain cells

I know there is are rules regarding posting of information on cameras not manufactured by Pentax, but Olympus are setting new standards with this baby and I'm sure the moderators would agree it is important that we are aware of the fool frame competition Pentax are facing. Of particular note is the ISO performance.

Apologies for not posting this earlier.

Just looked at the link. That has to be the worst attempt at an April Fool I have ever seen.

Kudos to the posters at DPreview that admitted they had been had.

Decided on an indulgent fry up breakfast for the family this morning. It's even coaxed the 17 year old out of bed he normally hibernates till noon
