How true your statement is. I bought me the Olympus E510 and now the 70-300mm lens. I have managed to get a few good photo's that I would call good. But in another area I had some problems was with my monitor and printer. My monitor went bad and I over corrected my images to a point I had to toss them out. (Another mistake from a newbe, I erased my original photos) There is so many thing to learn to be what one might call a good amateur.
