(Though I did record a nice thunderstorm once - in Slovakia again - with a Fostex FR-2 and an MS rig of Sennheiser MKH 30/40 in a Rycote)

oooh...thank you ...i've been looking for some real-world opinions on the Olympus LS-10.
so in summary, you like/would recommend it for on-the-go recording like that?

cheers,
