  • There are no silent motors in 4/3. SWD motors are ultrasonic, but not silent. Well, they are quieter than the other ones. In m43, you are looking for MSC.
  • Commented on Olympus PEN E-P5 Review preview

    Question for the reviewers:

    Has your test lens or anything else in the setup changed since the review of the E-M5 ?

    A comparison of the lower right of the image (the water paint tubes) shows a...

  • The point is that you are wrong. On sensor PDAF also helps with C-AF and C-AF tracking on m43 lenses, which is a very relevant thing for any m43 camera and any m43 user. Especially "family" users...
  • To my regret, I have to stand corrected after reading the interview with T. Terrada on the Russian OnFoto site: his answer to the question "Will we see the PDAF on sensor technology on the 'lesser'...
  • Indeed, soft and "strange" looking. If memory serves, it was soft like motion blur. Could be used as an art filter I guess.
  • I want this thread closed.
  • Why would he ? It's most relevant to slr users
  • As long as you buy the MMF-3 on the same invoice as the E-M1, it will be reimbursed by Olympus. At least while the offer lasts. BH will know when it finishes.
  • $1400 is the right price nowadays.
  • Replied in Motive?
    They have been tested in the field, actually. As I mentioned above, some of the chinese MMF knock offs (the brand was Viltrox or something like that) do every bit the work of the real thing till...
  • Yup, someone ate a zero :D By the way, this 1/180 sync speed has always troubled me enough to get with my little crazy theory about all the 1/180 shutters down the Olymous line (E-XXX and all the...
  • Replied in E-1 shutter
    The E-1's shutter is "underused", in the sense that it is not seing too much strain - 1/400 max, and most important - only 1/180 flash sync. Then its sound is damped in that solid cocoon it's...
  • Hello All. First (i believe) post here. A picture being worth so many words, and for what it's worth: The only effect of a full day of this treatment to my E-M5 + 12-50mm combo was a huge smile on...
  • Replied in Motive?
    Indeed. I believe that even though he was specifically talking about the article, Goddfrey's reaction was more on this: That one is utter FUD. Again - an out of spec adapter will do all sorts of...
  • I second that. It can be easilly seen on the chinese MMF clones sold on Fleabay. They do a decent job with most lenses, but they can give horrendous results with a 9-18mm or 7-14mm. No such...
  • If you look at the development of m43 on Olympus' side, the E-PL series (the bread and butter model, basically) has been renewed every 14 to 18 months. The last, the E-PL5, has been released...
  • This has already been settled. For the moment. No need for more polls.
  • Any time :) I don't hang in the m43 forum (never been there, actually), but I do keep myself informed on what m43 offers (options, specs), and I can tell you that, as insulting as it sounds to us...
  • The one obvious thing is that this logic is absolutely flawed. The E-M1 has been out for 19 days or so. Not being backed up by the simultaneous release of a lesser, less expensive but still...
