Some entries look like they may be taken with micro 4/3 mount lenses rather than 4/3 as specified in the rules

0 upvotes

I think the rule does not exclude m4/3 which is part of the 4/3 family.

m4/3 is fine

The rules call for out of camera jpeg. What if we only have the raw file?

0 upvotes

Same question here! What about raw images that were processed "as hot"?

0 upvotes

The only way to check if no post-processing took place, is to look in the EXIF data of the picture. There a signature is found of the post-processing software. If you shoot in RAW, your picture will always have this signature and I can not tell the difference. But since many contestants has violate this rule, I would say: just ignore it. I won't DQ no one for this.
