There was one predominate bidder, he must have bought a couple of dozen of them.

The mode dial is a weak point, lots of them would still work if the dial hadn't failed.

It was a $1400.00 camera when it came out although OLY had to reduce prices to get them really moving.

I think my first one was around $600.

We never had problems with the mode dials...it was always the freaking battery compartment covers.

Worst digicam I ever bought was a Fuji that wrote to CDs.

Ugh.

Never again.
