Hi, I'm a noob trying to get an interchangeable lens camera. Currently using Canon A2100. It's serves me pretty well and takes good pictures. But after two years of using it, I find it a bit limiting the pictures I take. Wanted to get an Canon EOS 550D. But I'm afraid that I will seldom use it due to it's bulkiness and probably after a while, the basic lens kit won't satisfy my wants.
I'm looking at the following interchangeable lens cameras:
1. SONY NEX-5A
2. OLYMPUS E-PL1
3. Panasonic Lumix GF1
The sequence is according to which model I prefer the most.
Here are the few questions that I would like to ask:
1. After looking around at Clubsnap Forum, it looks like Sony NEX is the most popular one. Why is it so when Olympus and Lumix can share the same lenses while NEX can only use its own lenses? Because I guess there are more choices for Olympus & Lumix lenses than NEX's?
2. Any recommended websites that I can read more on the 3 cameras or more about interchangeable lens camera?
3. Any Olympus or Lumix users would like to share their experiences on their cameras too?
I also welcome suggestions for other cameras. =)
Thanks in advance!
