"I have an iq of 154, but I really don't get what passes for art sometimes. No joke."

Please. The joke is that you expect us to infer your superiority in this matter via your result on one of many...

The 12-50 can do f/5.0 at 25mm, but you have it at f/7.1 -- one stop slower than necessary. You could have used ISO400, so that's one easy improvement.

What makes them "seem like toys"--the fact that they're small? That's silly; that's the point. Just for one example (and there are more), the Olympus 75/1.8 runs toe to toe with any of your...

It's also a small lens, you dolt.

vqueen -- the point is this: if you're not specific enough to begin with, and people enter the challenge with photos that fit the rules as stated, then it's FAR better to accept those entries and...

Placed 19^th in the challenge.

yabokkie: rubbish, as usual. The 14-35 is acknowledged to be one of the highest-performance standard zooms for any format. It's only "not worth the price" if you think 4/3 is somehow crippled by...

Placed 51^st in the challenge.

agentul: the hood thing is annoying, yes; but if that's all you can come up with...

It's pure snobbery not to mention Olympus .. even if you don't appreciate the 4/3 and m4/3 formats, you can't deny they've put in every ounce of their engineering talent -- particularly into the...

yabokkie has this same argument with different people in every single gear announcement.

Eventually he's reduced to nonsense claims about "basic physics", and then you know you've hit the...

yabokkie ... when pretty much everyone argues or disagrees with each one of your interpretations and opinions, it's time to consider whether you may in fact be -- wrong.

Do tell. A poem?

@yabokkie: You keep saying "basic physics" like that means something. It doesn't.

@marcio: okay, but what's the point of a small camera system if it doesn't have small lenses?

You'd get no benefit from an MFT 12-35 f1.4 over a 35mm 24-70 f2.8 -- same DOF control, similar low...

"I stand with basic physics."

Since when does "basic physics" produce subjective conclusions such as "4/3 image qualities are low"?

The best (micro) 4/3 images have better color depth, dynamic...

I thought it was too heavy when I first bought it, to the point that I was considering a return. But I realized that's just the price to pay for: lots of padding a separate, detachable, rubberized...

@yabokkie: "the fundamental reason why 4/3" image qualities are low"?

You're talking in absolutes for a relative measurement; you could make exactly the same argument for why 35mm "image...
