Major thirds tuning tuning's simplicity and consistency are not shared by standard tuning, whose seventh-chord fingering is discussed at the end of this section. Each major-thirds tuning repeats its open-notes after every two strings, which results in two copies of the three open-strings' notes, each in a different octave. This repetition again simplifies the learning of chords and improvisation. This advantage is not shared by two popular regular-tunings, all-fourths and all-fifths tuning. Chord inversion is especially simple in major-thirds tuning. Chords are inverted simply by raising one or two notes three strings. The raised notes are played with the same finger as the
Four Thirds system Annual Convention and Trade Show, the Four Thirds consortium consisted the following companies: This does not imply a commitment to end user products by each company. Historically, only Leica, Olympus, and Panasonic have produced bodies. Olympus and Leica/Panasonic have made dedicated Four Thirds lenses, and Sigma makes adapted versions of their "DC" lenses for APS-C format DSLRs. Kodak once sold sensors to Olympus for use in their Four Thirds bodies, but the newer Olympus Four Thirds cameras used Panasonic sensors. The majority of Four Thirds System cameras and Four Thirds lenses are made by Olympus. Many Four Thirds cameras use
