Replied in Software is more flexible
Doing it in software means you are no longer bound by the laws of optics. When you are shooting, how would you have something 10' away in focus, something 15' away out of focus, and something 20'...

Replied in It's distracting
When I was shooting with the Oly 45mm on my black E-PL2 at a family function, my nephew said "how come the lens doesn't match"?
I would rather that people not notice my camera when I am...

Replied in Examples?
Can someone post a photo from LR4 that simulates shallow DOF? I am curious how good that technology is today.
-
Replied in It goes both ways
If one argues that a disadvantage of M4/3 is too much DOF, then an argument can also be made that a disadvantage of FF is insufficient DOF.
I am not sure that either is really a disadvantage. ...

Replied in Were old SLRs weather-sealed?
Were SLRs from the 1970s (such as Nikon FE2, F2A or Olympus OM-1) weather-sealed? I had purchased a glove-plastic bag type apparatus for shooting in the rain. It never occured to me to use those...

Replied in An Olympus version please
I am hoping for an Olympus version of this lens. Without OIS it can potentially be more compact. And I will be able to buy it as a kit lens instead of paying full Panasonic price.

Replied in What is your pocketable camera?
I have the SD870IS which I carry everyday with me effortlessly. It fits all of my criteria for a carry-everywhere camera, except for IQ.
I agree, I want to see a photo or else it didn't...

Replied in Were cameras weather-sealed in the old days?
Sorry, posted in wrong thread.

Replied in Panasonic ts20
This is my non-negotiable list:
- A camera that I can take everywhere EFFORTLESSLY. I won't even know I have it until I need it.
- Kit zoom
- Build in flash
- Better IQ than 1/1.7"
M4/3...

Replied in Equivalence, fo rall practical purposes
My guess is that for 100% of all photographers, proper exposure is important. Which means FF f2.8 = APSc f2.8 = M4/3 f2.8.
Furthermore, my guess is that for 75% of all photographers, the 'final...

Replied in Yes, you are quite correct
I think the question is 'what did they mess up before?'
If you had spend countless hours working in LR3, you now may have to re-do some/much of that again in LR4. It doesn't exactly inspire...

Replied in Why not use the 'original' software
the OPs post brings up an interesting question. Would it not be better to use raw convert/PP software that only works with cameras from one manufacturer - for example, did this issue occur with...

Replied in How will Olympus sell any more EP3s?
Isn't the sensor in the E-P3 effectively 3 years old in human terms, which is 25 years old in camera terms?
-
Replied in Feasable way to work around the DOF control issue
When you use face detection on a group of 3 people (for example) each at a difference distance, the camera will recognize each face, and measure the distance to each of them. It will then use...

Replied in My experience with the E-PL2
The strange part is that I don't have any of those AF issues when I use my Nikon D70 or the Canon SD870is. Nor do I run into the face detection issues when using the Canon.

Replied in My experience with the E-PL2
Here's my take on the E-PL2 after having used it for about 9 months.
The exposure system is excellent. Under good conditions, it produces properly exposed images with good contrast. But where...

Replied in Too small cameras
I know it's cliche, but "the only good camera is the one you have with you". All other issues such as ergonomics, form factor, etc. are of secondary importance, unless you have a star trek...

Replied in Forgiving the hyperbole, he has a point
All the camera has to do is to capture the maximum DOF, and in PP you can selectively blur subjects, choosing the creaminess of the brokeh to use.
Small sensor cameras such as 1/2.3" are...
-
Replied in Forgiving the hyperbole, he has a point
I agree, the Pentax Q is ridiculously large, and its kit zoom is huge! In fact, if we go by the smallest dimension (which IMO is what matters), it is actually larger than many M4/3 cameras with...
-
Replied in Forgiving the hyperbole, he has a point
One can make the same argument with M4/3 vs 1/2.3". Someday 1/2.3" IQ will be so good that the performance difference will be academic. You can always wrap a big camera around a tiny sensor, but...
