Got tired of waiting for Jeff to put up the treasury funds - so I ordered an E-3 and HLD-4 Grip yesterday. I've been debating with myself whether I wanted to wait for the E-620, or buy an E-30 or E-3. In the end, I just decided to buy the camera I could go over Niagara Falls with or if needed, use to drive a nail through a red wood.
I went to Dan's on Saturday to rent the E-3 for May 2nd and 3rd for the race I'm going to. I was probably 85% - 90% certain I was going to go the route of the E-620 as my upgrade due to the smaller/lighter size and would wait for it to be released in May. But while there I started playing with the E-30 and just really liked it - so I started debating with myself again. In the process - totally forgot about renting the E-3 for the weekend and left without doing so.
Then, as all good financiers and economists do - I created a spreadsheet to help with the decisions making process!
In the end, it simply came down to the wife telling me "Just order the E-3. It's the camera you've wanted since it came out." So, all the time I spent contemplating the decision went out the window - much like alot of decisions which the wife gets involved in!
