Indeed.

Eyes are tiny and have very good resolving power. Seems like camera technology is closing in...

Well... you cannot make an image as sharp or blurry as you want - however much all photographers wishes that were true. Blurry, yes. Sharp: well, that depends on how sharp it is to start with,...

Well. I think they look soft too on a pixel level, which also means you lose fine texture. The uncorrected ones don't look as bad, but I'm not impressed. For architectural scenes, the pincushion...

It's better than the performance of many a compact camera. An iPhone truly eliminates the need for a low-end compact for snapshots, and I do believe that at times, you can get a shot with an iPhone...

When an image from a camera is flat and has poor contrast straight from camera, it is often because the camera hasn't added any processing of its own, leaving that to you, the photographer. It's a...

Looks like Nikon is trying to find a niche in the market that hasn't been filled by anyone else. Extra rugged large-sensor interchangeable lens cameras would definitely be better than the rugged...

That's exactly what I keep saying. In fact, if smart phones had stayed at 2 megapixels, the image quality would have been so much better too, with less noise and better dynamic range...

Why would you consider 8 megapixels "underwhelming" compared to Nokia's 41 or Sony's 20? After all, we should all know by now that 8 megapixels are much better at these sensor sizes.

I'd say anything better than 0.25 is good for a non-macro.

The 40-150 looks like just what I've been waiting for. Although I still have to wait a bit longer, it's nice to know it's on its way. I hope they give it a decent minimum focusing distance of less...

@photo nuts - You can use any 90mm macro ever created for any camera system on M43. Like the OM Zuiko 90mm f2. Most people use manual focus for macro anyway...

The Panasonic camera corrects the file in-camera for Panasonic lenses. Yes, also in raw files. The correction includes both CA and distortion. You should technically be able to do the same in post...

Well... if this had been a Sony, you'd probably still get a version with a near-extinct exotic hardwood grip and a snow leopard half-case for only a small premium of $3,000 more.

Well... there's a reason they stay at 16. If you go higher, you get more noise, less dynamic range, and no appreciable increase in detail to compensate for the reduction in the other areas. 16 is...

the 45mm f/1.8 is one of the best normal lenses I have used, sharper wide open than most are stopped down one stop, and it gets corner-to-corner sharpness faster than any of my other lenses too....

I see this has the proper hand grip I have been missing on my too retro-styled E-M5. I might upgrade just for the ergonomics of the grip, even if there are no image quality benefits, CA is easily...

I second that. There might not be much noise visible, but then there would be a lot of noise reduction smearing of anything resembling texture and detail. Smartphones and compact cameras would have...

Great thing for me too, as a frequent user of Photoshop, Lightroom, Illustrator, with the occasional Dreamweaver, Flash, and Adobe Acrobat Pro, it has never been this cheap to keep up to date.

In...

This is clearly aimed at someone who thinks their smartphone's built-in camera isn't good enough, yet they don't want the hassle of bringing along a compact camera as well as their omnipresent...
