a bigger sensor doesn't improve one's understanding of composition principles... the same way a full frame sensor won't make one a better photographer.....

f-stops and t-stops are different

f5.6 is not universal across lenses, T5.6 is..

olympus has a GREAT jpeg engine..

if you dial everything in right, before you press go, and compose your images properly, there isn't as much need for post processing. a lot of the event...

Revenant, they failed to comprehend the question, and went on about something that has no bearing on the output of the camera. it's something that the camera doesn't do. fine. but think of it this...

Howaboutraw. neither the tg-1, and tg-2 saves a raw file. talking about a feature that the camera doesn't have is fruitless when determining the functionality of a device. i ask about how it...

my 725sw was unusable beyond iso800, so, i kinda expected the artifacts and noise behavior, but i'm surprised that large artifacts are present at iso400.

one thing i didn't like about the folding...

@HowaboutRAW.. you still don't get it. i'm only interested in what the camera CAN actually do, not what the sensor might be able to accomplish. this is the part you fail to comprehend.

again, i...

@Revernant do you get the question? do you understand that the question isn't about RAW? or are you getting hung up on RAW as well?

do you know anything about the JPEG engine that olympus has...

@ Revernant.. here's the first part of the original question, and the most important part. please read it.

"does anyone have experience with the tg-1? how is the jpeg rendering engine? i had an...

you are absolutely an idiot. the question wasn't about RAW, it was about the camera's JPEG engine.

i realize that your small brain is wrapped around RAW, because you think it makes you sound like...

how do you know what it would cost olympus to implement? do you develop firmware or interfaces for olympus? was your RAW implementation denied for flaws? were you passed over for promotion?...

10 years, good for you. you want a medal? i've shot digital for over a decade, i have a background in film. lets talk about reciprocity. or view cameras. have you ever altered the focal...

@BorisK1 - thank you, i don't expect a camera that size to render jpeg's that can keep up with a larger sensor camera. but it's good to hear that they don't make one cringe. also, i've never spent...

however, i still don't think you are reading the question correctly. i'm less concerned with finite control, as i am with the output of the camera. have you used the TG-1 extensively enough to get...

I'm well aware of the predetermined settings that occur when the jpeg is rendered, however jpeg rendering occurs after the sensor collects it's data. with a manual camera, like a dslr, you can set...

it's not for more than shallow snorkeling?! do you think the water seal claims are pure marketing? I had a 725sw, and took it well past 10" below surface on many occasions, took it cliff diving (by...

@J2Gphoto - i have an ep-1 and a 5dii, if i were concerned with dslr quality i'd use the 5d.. the pen is my primary walk around camera, but it's been losing out to my cellphone, and i am...
