An Olympus Revival

What could the Greco-Roman Deities do to get their itsha together and revive the celestial heights of their vaunted otherworld? Not much, probably. But the camera company of the same name has just now slightly redeemed itself with the Crumby Ovate. How did that come about since Crumby was seriously fed up with Olympus not many moons ago?

What has revived Crumby's reverence? Certainly not the ridiculously lame micro 4/3rds offerings. How those ucksa magnifico, including the latest Super Duper Penta Bessamacoola. No.

Instead Crumby found himself still using his Oly mount Bugma and his 14-54 on the antiquated E 330 bodkin. So when Crumby got the chance to purchase a slightly more advanced camera body at a fairly low price, he jumped like a bean of the Mexican jumping variety or subspecies. It's a helluva deal!

Yes. For $237.90, including shipping, Crumby glommed onto an E600 with slightly under 1200 shutter activations. It all works too. Now Crumby has 12.3 megapixels at his diposal for dealing with the tiny, the far away and whatever the 14-54 does, or is supposed to do.

Sadly, Crumby just could not pony up for Canon mount replacements for the Bugma and the 14-54. Everything else was good to go. But not those two. Thus we are twain systems. How low rent is that?
