  • From the test images on Imaging Resource, The P5 seems to have a little better resolution and sharpness, at low iso, or perhaps less anti-aliasing or NR than the GX7, side by side (but that could...

  • Looks great to me, except the eyecup bulge....but if it feels anything like the GX1, which is by far the most comfortable mirrorless I ever held, it will be a great shooting camera and perfect for...

  • Commented on Behind the Shot: Nautilus article

    Very good points, I agree that the goal is to render that magic vision that the human eye and brain perceive, aka, the moment, as you saw it...and a camera just can't do that in one shot with such...

  • Commented on It has long stopped time in the Once upon a time challenge

    Very nice image, well done, and shows what can be done with a good P&S!

  • " Perhaps they are in a refractory period after spouting with excitement over the latest Fuji. "
    Hilarious, best line of the day, Thanks!!

  • Well, the numbers are very impressive, especially at the wide end, and much more afforadable than the Canon in the same range. I feel this would be a great lens for me for indoor use, some street,...

  • For the money, the Asus PA 248Q monitor is great. It is IPS, 1920 x 1200, Pro grade, calibrated for color accuracy (with certificate), Matte Screen, solid build feel, USB 3.0 Hub, excellent stand...
  • Commented on 2009_04_10_142413 station small photo in tko's photo gallery

    Very nice image, I love the etheral quality; but could you help us newbies and post any additional information about post-processing, if any, so we can learn? Thanks!

  • Great shots!! I love the creepy-beautiful color that night photography renders, but I am wondering what the shutter value impllies. For example 10/1, is that 10, 1 second shots that are later...
  • I am new to m 4/3 and have a PL2 with the 14-42 II kit lens. When using the kit lens and manual focus, is this camera capable of giving the Focus lock Confirmation 'beep' w/ green square, as it...
  • Yeah, the GX1 is one of the most comfortable m4/3 cameras I have ever held, Love the front grip; including the OMD.  I think the height is what does it for me with huge skinny hands. I would have...
  • Are you sure you bought a camera, or a Kilo of Bolivian marching dust?

  • Thanks all for the comments. After my experience with Astro photography and a Canon 350 digital years back, I assumed that newer sensors like CMOS, xtrans, etc, things may have become less...
  • Created discussions Heat and Image Noise
    Using the PEN PL2 outside when the temp is pretty hot, i.e., 100 F, central Texas, I have noticed that the images seem to have more noise in the non black but darker areas of the shot. I know there...
  • Thanks for all the great replies you all. I was going to upload a couple of shots but having issues with the upload plugin and Chrome, will try later w/ IE9. At the swim meet, I was shooting at ISO...
  • Sorry, forgot the lens, Standard kit lens:  m.Zukio 14-42mm II
  • Created discussions Image Stabilization or Not?
    I am new to Mirrorless and recently picked up a PEN PL2 for a great price, but some of the tech is frustrating, specifically, IBIS on the PL2. I recently shot a swim-meet and was not happy about...
  • Commented on Turtle Peeking in the Turtles challenge

    Beautiful shot; bkg. blur, sharp skin, and punchy color are all a perfect combo!

  • I like that, in 2000, people were using and learning with film.
    I still see college kids using film and I sold my EOS Elan 7 to one, who loved it and was thrilled to be doing a retro art photo...

  • Yes, It would be cool if the selectable focus points could be numbered and assigned to a series of shots, area 1 (shot 1) area 2 (shot 2) and so on, I'll bet some app developer is making it now!
