  • I think the .orf file contains a .jpg preview, which Olympus Viewer loads first so you can see which image it is. Then it loads the raw image data quickly for a coarse preview, then it refines the...
  • VF-4 is better, VF-3 is cheaper, take your pick. I use the VF-3 with my E-P3, and it meets my needs. I tried the VF-2, which was bigger and brighter and cost more, and which is being replaced by...
  • Replied in XZ-1 vs Nex 6
    The difference is not just the size of the sensor, but also the type. The XZ-1 has a CCD sensor and the NEX-6 has CMOS. CMOS is more sensitive to low light.
  • Free as in beer, yes.
  • I like OV3. It seems a bit more stable than OV2. Specifically it does not seem to freeze when I disconnect my camera, as OV2 sometimes did. I don't notice any difference in speed, but I haven't...
  • I was going to come back at you with a challenge to pinpoint the US cities with populations greater than that of Canberra. (There are 50 of them.) But when I looked up Canberra's population, I...
  • Huzzah! Thank you, DPR!
  • Suddenly, the For Sale and Wanted forum started displaying city names at the start of listings, instead of national flags. I want flags back! I don't care what city the gear is in. If it's not...
  • Replied in Nik software
    Fortunately for Nik users, the people who went to MacPhun appear to be more from the sales side than the development side.
  • I like the Oly 17/2.8. I tried the Panny 14/2.5, but it was wider than I wanted for general photography, and it has its own problems with corner sharpness. Fortunately, corner sharpness isn't so...
  • A major difference from XZ-1 to XZ-2 is that the sensor type changed from CCD to CMOS. The whole industry made the same move for more light sensitivity and less power consumption. After the change,...
  • When I was your age, I wanted a Minolta SRT-101, but my earnings could finance only a Hi-Matic F. It turned out, that Hi-Matic took great photos! Buy what you can afford, and enjoy using it while...
  • Olympus doesn't base its product offerings on the gear used by its most talented customers. Rather, it chooses Olympus Visionaries who put the company's current product offerings to exemplary use.
  • The 19mm and the 45mm make a terrific 2-prime kit. I don't think I have any images to show the 19's corner sharpness, but there are lots of samples and reviews online. You'll like it.
  • Nice photo. Will they print from digital files? I couldn't find any mention of that service on the website, but I suppose Ilford wants to sell Ilford film.
  • Nice processing! The XZ-1's noise reduction is out of control, but that lens can lay down a beautiful RAW image.
  • Let's see some photos. If "the most glaring miscue is that there's no infrared proximity sensor to switch between the LCD and EVF," then the camera might not be bad. A lot of great photography has...

  • Created discussions XZ-1 relieves Ricoh Envy
    Now that Ricoh's GR has adopted a larger APS-C sensor, there are some good prices on used GRD3s and GRD4s. I noticed that sample photos from those cameras are usually in grayscale, and the color...
  • Replied in 45mm/1.8
    You have the moderate wide lens, so next you need the moderate long lens. I never hear anyone complain about the 45mm/1.8. The 45 and the 17 together would give you a fast, small, lightweight kit...
  • I love these. The color adds immediacy and modernizes the images. Looking at Lincoln is like seeing him in the present. The effect is bracing.
