Digital BW, The Print

Clayton,

Just guessing, but the 4/3 format means a chip (and therefore the lenses) 
can be smaller (MP for MP) than a 3/2 chip. Olympus makes a 4/3 digital SLR, 
and are promoting the FourThirds format along with some other manufacturers

I have really come to love the 3:4 ratio of digicams.  It's right in
between the two extremes.  I don't know how the industry decided on
3:4 for digicams but I'm glad they did.  The photos look great and
they fit nicely on 8.5x11 paper.  Unfortunately, standard frame and
mat sizes are still 8x10/11x14, so framing at 8.5x11 is still a custom
job.
