Hey guys,
My beloved Nikon D40 has bitten the dust this weekend care of the concrete outside my apartment! I'm looking to replace the body with something better and was thinking about the D90. I figure this is a good bet, it's a nice upgrade from the D40 and I could use my existing lenses if I just got the body only, I use a 35 1.8 mostly but would probably get a macro lens for it in the future.
Problem is a lot of the time I shoot film with a rangefinder; the size and discrete nature of it when you're out and about is great, so I'm torn between the D90 or an Olympus EP-1. The EP-1 would be similar in feel to a rangefinder (I use a voigtlander, essentially a Leica M type of camera and a zeiss lens) but be digital. I'm not sure how versitile it would be though, I know with a DSLR even though they're big and obvious as a jack-of-all-trades type tool they're great.
Not sure what to do what do you think?
