I think it's time to move from 35mm to digital.

I love SLR, and have used it for a long time, starting as a kid with a battered old Praktika and running through several to my present Pentax MZ-7 with a Pentax 28-80 lens.

Although these aren't mine, this is what i have :

Anyway...

It's getting worn and battered, and either needs a professional clean and service or replacement.

I'm not sure what sort of camera to get next, but like the look of the Olympus PEN digital cameras - with a larger sensor it should give better pictures than a compact digital (we have a Kodak 10MP pocket cam for "snaps"), but not be as bulky as a DSLR.

Any thoughts, advice, experiences?
