Yes, it does make you wonder how necessary all of today's typical specification is when the E-1 apparently still does it all so well. It seems it's still a totally viable camera. Do you find the 5 megapixels a limitation...

Five whole Mp!!! Sheer luxury........ My dear old EOS D30 (circa 2000) has only got 3.2 and that gets plenty of use. If there is a limitation then it does mean I have to be a bit more careful about framing as cropping can cut down the available pixels very quickly.

On the other hand I have experimented with doubling the pixel count using PS and trial prints suggest that A3 remains well within the bounds of possibility. I can't see the E-1 performing any less acceptably.
