As every single tech pundit has taught us with all their iPod killers and iPhone killers and iPad killers over the past decade, all "killer" means is "shoddy imitation that will have no net impact...

Just before the comet became visible. All from the Cerrillos Hills outside of Santa Fe, NM. Captured with Panasonic GH2 and Olympus 40-150 f/4.0-5.6. PP done in Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS6.Feel...

Four Thirds system lenses are designed first and foremost for a system using phase detection autofocus, and one where video is at best an afterthought. The motors in these lenses are not optimized...

Use a steadicam or a shoulder rig, or other specialized device for stabilizing a video camera. I put together a shoulder rig for my GH2 based off of a CowboyStudio shoulder support pad, using this...

If I only had one camera, I'd probably make it the Olympus E-PL5 at this point.I have two Micro Four Thirds cameras right now. The Panasonic GH2, and the Olympus E-PL1. I primarily bought the E-PL1...

A linear polarizer is typically made with a polarizing film made by 3M or some other big materials company.A circular polarizer is, as you know, a linear polarizer that has had a quarter wave plate...

2012 has been an odd year for me. A lot of changes in my job and personal life have meant I haven't had as much time or energy to do photography, so my crop hasn't been as fruitful as in previous...

Lens hoods, especially petal or square lens hoods, are effectively configured for one aspect ratio; they should have some leeway, but going to a sensor shape that is different by that much you...

That is to say, it doesn't stand for anything, except that it's a model with upgraded hardware in the same...

25mm f/1.4. I've wanted this lens since it came out. The way it renders out-of-focus areas is really special, something you can't ordinarily get on a lens of its price class.75mm f/1.8. I'd pick...

All cameras with zoom lenses have a path through which air can travel. This is especially important with weather sealed lenses: if there wasn't a path for air on lenses that are not internal zoom,...

It's not so much a technical reason: Panasonic simply did not build in the capability to autofocus those 4/3 lenses that lack the High Speed Imager AF specification into their first generation...

I got my Associate of Arts in photography at Santa Fe Community College. For residents within the same taxation district as the college, tuition is currently $44.30 per credit hour. It cost me...

The important thing in any electronic signal capture--regardless of whether we're talking about photography, or audio recording, or any number of other things--is signal to noise ratio. It's...

If your 14-54 is the newer mk II version, it actually performs pretty admirably on Micro Four Thirds cameras. In my experience, it actually focuses faster across a broader range of light conditions...
