  • Replied in I was able to reproduce...
    Thanks, Ken. Did you try it on different ISOs? 6400 seems to be the setting a lot of people are using to test, but I'm wondering if there's any significance to the problem or it's just the point...
  • Replied in struggling with a FF vision in my µ4/3 world (img)
    You may wish to explore this technique: http://admiringlight.com/blog/large-sensor-look-from-a-small-sensor-camera/ A static scene like the one you've shown is a perfect opportunity to try...
  • Replied in GX1 versus E-M5
    He's subtracting the price of the lens (separately) from the total kit price. -- --------------------------------------------- Panasonic GF1 http://www.flickr.com/photos/grahamgibson/
  • Replied in Weather sealing?
    I did not see any mention of this lens being weather-sealed in the press release. It has a seal at the lens mount, but is that all? Better clear this up before a bunch of E-M5 users ruin their...
  • Replied in If you could only have one: omd em5 or 12-35 2.8 lens
    Kind of a weird question, but I would just go for the E-M5 with 12-50. It's not THAT much slower than the upcoming Panasonic. Honestly, I feel that the upcoming Panasonic 35-100 f2.8 is much more...
  • Replied in Not enough cow photos!
    Took this one last month--GF1 45-200mm: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7210/7141048731_eba282c2b3_o.jpg -- --------------------------------------------- Panasonic...
  • Replied in Cheap way to get pancake?
    Both the 14 and 17 were kit lenses at different points, but there are probably more 14mm's floating around. I've seen both go for sub-$200 second-hand. I don't think you'll find cheaper than that...
  • Replied in GH3 sensor discussion; based on MAR 16:9 inner logic
    I've never heard of the UHDTV resolution, just talk of 4K. Anyways, I'm interested in the multi-aspect ratio sensor in the GH3. I've found myself cropping primarily to 3:2, so a multi-aspect...
  • Replied in Do I need a wide prime?? Heading to Sicily
    If you want to just dip your toe into wide angle photography, you can search for a wide angle 0.75x converter that would work on your 14-45mm that would turn it into a 21mm equivalent or so. I...
  • Replied in gx1 vs gf5, high iso test
    Interesting, thanks for sharing. The GF5 looks almost up to par with the 16MP sensor. -- --------------------------------------------- Panasonic GF1 http://www.flickr.com/photos/grahamgibson/
  • Commented on challenge entry Forest Canopy in the The leafy sky challenge

    Thank you everyone for the votes! The only post processing I did on this image was saturation and tone adjustment in Lightroom. This was taken while hiking the Dipsea trail in the SF Bay Area.

  • Replied in Bhutan trip - lens choices
    Sounds like a great trip. You have a similar setup to my own (I use the 9-18, 20, & 45-200). I would personally travel as light as possible. You'll make do with what you have. The 9-18 is a...
  • Replied in m43 Underwater
    I also really enjoy your underwater shots, Mike. Keep up the posting. I'm waiting for my next dive trip to upgrade to a m4/3 underwater setup. ...
  • Replied in 2x E-PL2 for 3D
    Very nice, thanks for sharing! I prefer cross-eye viewing myself as well. I'm very intrigued by 3D photography and videography, but I think the limiting factor at this point is how to share...
  • Submitted a challenge entry Forest Canopy
    Placed 1st in the challenge.
  • Replied in An experiment with your raw samples (thanks)
    Thanks for your adjustments/crops. E-M5 looks to have a more gradual highlight roll-off before clipping, which is good. At first glance, the shadows look better too... but appear to have...
  • Replied in Instead of ND...use a Polarizer "off"
    CPLs are fine to use with wide angle lenses. The polarizer's effect will vary across the sky though, and shooting wide makes this difference appear much more obvious. I use my CPL all the time on...
  • Replied in A couple of E-M5 shots from today
    Lovely images. You nailed the focus! These are taken with the Pana-Leica 25 and 45? How do you like these lenses on the E-M5? Any issues? Would you mind posting an picture with each...
  • Replied in Instead of ND...
    I think both is a good idea too of course ;) I own a CPL, ND8, and ND400. They're great tools, not too small, and (generally) not too pricey. I recommended the CPL because that's what I...
  • Replied in Instead of ND...
    Instead of ND, consider getting a polarizing filter instead (aka CPL). By blocking out polarized light, you'll reduce glare and reflections, resulting in richer colors. Skies take on a nice deep...
