Well, that's not my understanding, nor is it Fuji's which brought out the S3 with special mini pixels to expand the limited dynamic range of other dslrs by two stops. I found Erwin's review to hint at sour grapes. He says sharp lenses are not needed with digital but then praises the Olympus zoom for that very attribute, dynamic range is ignored, criticizing Leica for no auto focus when he didn't have a problem with manual focus before. I wonder if there was a falling out?
