  • This is amazing we are talking about a lens that is special because the blurry stuff you can't see is special with this lens!

    I'm thinking of beginning a Kickstarter that will sell a lens that...

  • Replied in Optomistic
    I heard that Ricoh was going to resurrect all the other pentax names, e.g. Hoya-Optical-Asahi-Ricoh-SLRS, But instead they just decided to drop the Pentax from the front, which do you prefer,...
  • I think that Pentax was #3 of "The Big Five", even above Olympus, that's how far they have fallen, to be bought out by one of the companies in the 6-10th place in the 1970's, Ricoh, probably the #3...
  • At the outset, let me say I'm a new E-PL5 owner, it's only my second Olympus, and the E-PL5 is basically the same camera without a viewfinder and with slightly weaker optical image stabilization. I...

    Hmm, sweep panorama doesn't work so well, does it ?? Two airplanes and a disembodied sculpture in the foreground, below the airplanes ...

  • Love, the camera. Glad I did that PhD in engineering and taught at university, so I could have a chance of figuring out this camera. Resolution is not exceeded by practically any camera. Now, for...

    Why skimp with an EOS ?? My son started off with a Voigtlander Bessa Lii 667, at age 2, then I moved him up to a Hasselblad H5D-40 Medium Format when he hit 3 years old. For video, I let him use...

  • Look at the test shots on www.imaging-resource.com. I have found no camera that produces as much detail at high ISO (1600 ISO) as this camera. None. No DSLR. Only Olympus Pen. Amazing.

  • If you check the test photos at high ISO on imaging-resource, the stills are far superior to ANY camera in sharpness at high iso. And yet the price is not more, in balance, but this does balance...

  • I worked for a MEMs start-up. Like many start-ups, it eventually became a shut-down. The problem with any sort of MEMs device is manufacturability : there is NONE, for 98% of all the things that...
  • Today I received an Olympus E-PL5 (late father's day present). Why is Sony not taken seriously? I avoided the NEX cameras and Sony for two reasons - - - 1. Quirky 2. Their stuff doesn't...

  • I just got an E-PL5 today (late father's day gift), for $524 at amazon, plus a $24 rebate, total was about $550 with the 14-42 lens.  I don't understand what is it from the E-P5 that makes it a...
  • I highly recommend that you check out some comparison VIDEO at www.cameralabs.com or some other website takes the same video shots with all cameras. I think will find that the Olympus cameras take...
