You can hover over the gear in the lower right of each image, and see the lens details, including aperture. The OM-D shots are all with the 4/3 50mm f/2 Macro lens, which surely helps the OM-D a...

Hang on, did they double the price of a 'Pro' (= ad free) account? Yahoo may have just talked me out of spending any money with them next year...

I inherited a Konica Hexanon 52mm f/1.8, and while in the past I've not really enjoyed using the MF lenses when I had a GF-1, it really works well with the OMD.  The EVF and a button mapped to...

It is good to see Canon bringing out more options that will work with the EOS-M ;)

Do people really have model releases for all of those entries? I find it hard to believe that people could provide "a signed release from all persons who appear in the photograph submitted" on 7...

@Marike6 There are different definitions of 'pockets'. I take my E-M5 with a pancake lens in my jacket pocket when I ski or am out with the kids. I did a run with the kids last week where I...

Isn't this kind of pointless? I can wait for the real news release...

Nice! Didn't think anyone would be saying 'I shot my zoom lens STOPPED DOWN at f/2' any time soon :) Sigma is bringing out some interesting stuff these days...

I came to the GH2 from a Canon 7D, and was impressed with the large size of the GH2.  That said, the pixel size is larger, and others have said it didn't add a whole lot.  When I went to the OM-D I...

Here are a couple of 45mm shots :)  I did own the 50mm f/1.4 Planar Zeiss lens (but not the ZM f/2) back when I owned a dSLR, and on the one hand I felt like the images had something 'special'...

The whole list is not organized alphabetically.  Within each brand the categories are from lower end to higher end, it seems.  Despite 'Rebel' being after EOS, or "Pro DX" being after "FX" and so...

I've gone from a Canon 7d to the omd, and can't say I miss much about AF on the canon. That isn't to say it wasn't better, but I find it didn't make a big difference in getting in focus shots. ...

I personally use 'High Fidelity Compacts' as the name of my blog.  Not that I think it is going to catch on or anything, but really that is the 'category' of interest to me - smaller size, high...

I only use an actual "pocket" when doing sports, whether it is bicycling, skiing or other family activities.  In that case, having the camera in a my jacket pocket keeps it somewhat protected, as...

Have you played with split toning in Lightroom?  Should allow tinting of the shadows to warm them up...

It is still a relevant lens. I have the 25mm and still pull out the 20mm for a slightly wider FOV or if I want the sharpest pancake lens around for jacket pocket use :). If I had to choose just...

I was thinking the exact opposite - at least someone is paying attention to APS-C and smaller formats and making dedicated primes :) I'm impressed with the direction Sigma is heading in lately!

If you refer to my link, I would almost with certainty say it was mostly shot at a faster speed (1/250 or faster) as I was focused on getting sharp stills as well. Wish you could force the video...

I mainly stick to the 1080 HD mode, but after your post played around with the 720 and MJPG options. I really didn't see much difference between them, other than the file size (x3 for the...

Here is an example:http://bradcalkins.blogspot.ca/2013/02/sweetheart-2013-tournament-video.htmlProcessed in Animoto, but certainly adequate for sharing. Still, lower quality than the GH2 I used to...
