G'Day Joe:

Nice shot! It sure is sharp - especially in light of the long shutter speed you used; the bee must've known you were taking her picture so she was nice and still. I wonder if that's a little bee smile we're seeing ;-)

The C-8080 is a mighty competent pro-sumer. I love mine, but since I got my E-1 the C-8080 hasn't seen much action. Of course, it's a handy back-up.

BTW: Did you use the EVF of the LCD for composition and focusing?

Ciao!

I used the LCD for focusing. I too like my C8080 but am not satisfied with the DOF limitations. I am thinking about investing in an SLR to have access to f stops above 8.0.
