Thanks everyone. I am really enjoying the camera so far. I guess I could have cranked that ISO down. I took a photo of a Great Blue Heron in near darkness, about 20-30 minutes after the sun set. Marv couldn't even see it and it was about 30 feet away. I took a pretty dang good photo of it, hand held. I should see how slow that shutter was. I know it was high ISO too.

Beautiful shot Shirley and a very handsome young man. Wait till you find you can get sharp shots handheld at 1/10th sec with IBIS and you'll love it even more.

Oh great idea to use the salt light Shirley, it gives off such an attractive glow.

beautiful light. The contrast of the very old crystal (as old as light) and the young skin with eyes bright from the inside is very appealing.

Thank you and a huge thanks to Amazon.com's in store interest free credit!! That made the purchase so much easier. I'm going to hang on to my E-5 until I am 100% sure I'm not going to miss it, or I'll just keep it in the same cabinet my other two bodies are in, on the relics shelf. ha! So far I am loving the new IS immensely!
