Sorry for my confusion. I've gotten so used to insisting on precise wording in my work as a Patent Examiner . . . it didn't specify who was making no claim.

I saw that they were not going to sell the book, but they're not using it for any other purpose? I'm surprised that they wouldn't want to at least show it off to people to demonstrate what their gear is capable of. Olympus marketing baffles me yet again.

Don't we all wish?!

Can't be more flexible than that! Great news, Ian, thanks for confirming this.

Hi Greg,

You've probably noticed that the rules for the E-Group competition were published earlier today, I would think that Ian will follow up with the rules for this competition quite soon. Watch this space!

Re: Olympus E-System fans, this competition is for you!

The rules have now been added to the original introductory page:

http://fourthirds-user.com/2011/10/u..._for_you.php/a

A minor update is that you can enter more than one image in order to give yourself a better chance of being featured in the photo book (and so earning yourself a copy of the book) but only one clearly highlighted image per entrant will be considered for the main prize.

Ian
