Silly error about SAM being operated by the drive coupling to the body - makes you wonder just how well the reviewer understands any of the camera he reviews.

I don't want to get personal, I did a few reviews myself. And they are very time intensive..and not so easy to do.
However, I rank 2 sites as the worst on the net for reviews, one is trusted reviews, the other is ephotozine. Epz takes the prize IMO, the reviews are shallow, full of errors, and the reviewer is IMHO not suitable for camera reviews. They cannot be taken seriously in any way whatsoever. I am astonished he is even allowed to put them up.
I know what the EPZ strategy is, with the galleries and active forums, it's small bite sized bits thrown out to the masses, and maybe it works great for advertising revenue, but it makes for a very poor review site indeed.
