I've also seen this and from some time ago, but could not remember from where. However I've found this STMicro patent. Since display methods for photos these days are overwhelmingly non-curved, an...

More like a £100 difference with the Panasonic being cheaper? Who sells the Olympus for 10 pounds away from £799?

I did not have any evidence, other than first impressions, to make that particular statement. Apologies. You specifically asked which Sony lens was larger and disappointingly so than Canon SLR...

You went to great lengths to cherry-pick heavy and large and uncommon examples of M43 to compare with FF standard issue lenses. Fine. I could do the same with Sony APSC vs. FF Canon when you asked...

It's surprising that someone who so diligently dug out info on obscure MF lenses for the M43 to compare with Canon should be so ignorant to standard E-mount choices.  Using your examples namely...

Using the same line of reasoning, there was no reason why most of the current APSC NEX lenses have to be so big, and yet in fact they are, disappointingly. There is no technological reason why an...

In SLRs, this is less of an issue because the shutter does not have to close (it's closed anyway) before opening, and the mirror upswing is a much less harsh movement (in many cases they have tried...

Not Apple. If Apple goes into something of similar size they would make it at least appreciably different from everyone else and call it iMax format or something.

There are no m43 fans. There are Olympus fans. This concept is different from m43 fans. People go for m43 for the sake of utility, and stick to Olympus because of the company's Apple-like allure....

I said this much earlier in the thread to the OP as I actually practice this method quite often. I'm surprised that they have not found this through experience as this is one of the very first...

Very true. This is what I do when I have enough time to fiddle around M mode, and the histogram works well in most cases as it pertains to the entire frame. However, when there are very small...

This one  is non-nuclear, if the operator and government are to be believed...

Can CDAF - most AF lenses can work in CDAF mode - and designed for CDAF - in most cases only lenses specifically designed with CDAF in mind would CDAF quickly - are two different things. CDAF...

Thanks a lot for your kind words. That one was through a dirty double-glazed window of a fast moving train. I was working and someone walking along almost fell onto me so I had to help...

I actually use your technique all the time, point the spot meter at somewhere which results in the histogram touching the right edge and AE lock. Usually that results in a recoverable image in LR3....

Wow. Just wow. This would effectively be a global shutter by the back door, or is that the front window :) However this needs to be able to provide reasonable transparency (better than 1/2 stop...

The highest continuous shooting speed (tens of shots per second) should be electronic shutter and 4MP resolution. Also potentially flash synch up to 1/4000 or whatever the highest shutter speed...

F2.8 lenses are approximately the same quality by F7.1 (F14 in FF terms) with F5.6 lenses. If not, something would be seriously amiss. The two delay methods used by Olympus and Panasonic are quite...

If it were a global shutter you fully decouple the read scanning from the shutter, and the scanning speed becomes irrelevant when talking about flash synch, jello effect, etc. However the text...

I think if you activate the AE lock, for the duration of the lock the effect of the exposure setting is shown. Another work-around is to have the histogram up all the time to give essentially the...
