New Nikon 50mm vs Oly 45mm

Jul 14, 2011

Maybe I'm spoiled by my old, wonderful legacy lenses, but I find the photos in the new Nikon 50mm gallery absolutely unimpressive (look at photo #4: a 30€ OM 50mm + 2 years old E-P1 does much better)!

On the contrary, I find absolutely impressive the Oly 45mm examples you can find googleing... am I a fanboy or somone has the same feelings?
