    Only reason I won't get an M1: the M5

    I've looked at lots of examples and I believe the M5 has an edge in sharpness, resolution and contrast. Noise seems about the same. I like the M1 body, but they did something to the camera that changed the image look from the M5. The difference is small, but it reminded me a lot of the image...

    Used camera equipment sale Sunday

    I thought this would appeal to m4/3rds shooters owing to all the old lenses we can adapt. You can often get good deals here. Last time I got a 35mm f2.0 Takumar (the smaller one) for $40.00. The Society holds these kinds of sales now about six times a year or so. Some are at a hotel in...

    Old Oly 40-150mm on E-M5 AMMENDED!!!

    Boy is THIS embarrassing! In the first thread, I said the old 4/3rds lens took time to focus, then when the shutter button was pushed, it took a couple seconds for the shutter to fire. WRONG! I had the camera's 2 second time delay on!!! Sorry! The shutter fires when the shutter release is...

    Old Oly 4/3rds 40-150mm on E-M5

    Upside. It works very well optically, stop it down a stop or so and it produces very good images. The shot below was taken over 500ft through heat waves, since it was 34 C. here today in Toronto. Downside: 2 seconds to lock focus, then, press shutter, wait 1.5 seconds and then it fires! NOT...

    Panasonic 14-45mm versus Olympus 12-50mm on E-5M

    More chromatic aberration on the Panasonic, but it is much sharper wide open at the edge. I missed the extra 2mm in width since I sold my Nikon D300 and 16-85mm (a fantastic, underappreciated lens) so I'm glad I got the 12-50, but for maximum benefit, it has to be stopped down. The Olympus...

    Canon 200mm f2.8 good, adapter-BAD!

    Picked up the old FD Canon for a song but the FD adapter I have is shabby, straight from China, doesn't lock well, there is play. The m4/3r bayonet part works well enough. I'm wondering if I shouldn't just unify the adapter with epoxy and leave it on the lens since there is little need for the...

    Too chicken to buy the new OM-D, got GH2 instead

    Maybe I've been pre-conditioned to brand new cameras by having owned a D7000 (focus issues) for a week and seeing the Fuji X10 orb debacle? I was able to pick-up a GH2 and 14-140mm for $1100.00 so now I can wait (though I want the OM) for a month or two and see what the consumers say about the...

    OM-D (what is with the body covering?)

    Look on Dpreview, there is a shot of the silver body with a pebble-grain covering (which I like) and all the other shots show a smoother covering, which I would choose second. Any further information on this?

    Olympus about to release new kind of camera?

    This should be interesting. I hope the new one isn't a vastly overpriced, small sensored job like the Pentax Q. http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/news/Olympus_primes_CSC_with_breakthrough_viewfinder_plus_DSLR_news_310865.html

    NEX-7 noise is just too much!

    It's at least 1.5 stops worse than the NEX-5N, worse than any other APS sensor including Samsung's 20MP model, worse than most of the m4/3rds gear and lastly, apparently worse than even Nikon's diminutive-sensor V10! Detail at 100-200 is very good, but once past that, cameras like the 5N...
