Apparently, it wasn't. Want to be polite and nice? Go ahead and analyze 72 images that OP posted on flickr. Waiting for your informative response after that. BTW, there have been enough...

Why do you spam forum with dozens of pictures? Can't you just choose the ones that are relevant and, perhaps, do some minimal analysis? Hint - the ones with 1/640-1/8000s shutter speed that you...

From m4/3 cameras only Panasonic limits preview to 1920x1440 or something like that when you shoot raw only. Can't really verify sharpness based on that. Olympus doesn't do this kind of bs, you can...

I think the guy did all the best he could and became a bit surprised that not everything worked well. Very nice series. PS. Lots of great work here.

Ironically, many of them are blurred, showing the exact shutter shock impact that was discussed here. Just read responses to your post and see 100% crops. You just didn't see it, did you?

Still,...

Heck with EVF, this camera isn't for old skool, it's for growing generation. Smartphones don't have EVF, why should camera have one?

Built-in EVF uglified GX-7, NEX 6 and 7. These can't be put in...

My photos often come with 1 week delay because I usually don't have time to deal with them immediately.Here is one from last Sunday Katya And also Get Olympus (North American Olympus department)...

I don't think your logic is consistent. After you said that "lightweight cameras like the E-P5 are simply more prone to shake", you can't ignore the fact that E-P5 weights exactly...

You wrote "lightweight cameras like the E-P5 are simply more prone to shake than heavier SLRs, and specifically to vertical movement just from pressing the shutter button"

I am saying that timer...

There have been numerous reports about shutter shock (what you call camera/image shake) on E-M5 and other Pens at DPR m4/3 forum.
The shutter shock effect depends on camera body, lens and operator,...

I have tested similar combination. Oly 75mm + Oly TCON-17 tele-converter. It may make sense in some cases, but since I tested this I haven't encountered such cases, so I didn't use it. Oly TCON-17...

This is an unique beach with red sand located close to Hana, Maui. It can only be reached by hike and the walk is kind of difficult because it involves climbing very inclined and curved ground,...

I was there in early September with E-PL5. Here are few photosPlease see my next post about about Red Sand Beach and why m4/3 was just right. Too many photos for single post. 1 2 3 4 5 6...

OP's title states diffraction. The diffraction affects sharpness, not DOF, so the sharpness is the thing to talk about in this thread. BTW, as it was pointed here, m4/3 DOF is widely...

I'm also interested to know this. Donald, the shots are superb! Thanks!

I would try to extract the moisture from the lens. If the moisture got there it should be possible to get it out, although it may be difficult. Put lens with rear element up in a black open bag...

It is a fact that this lens is overpriced in US, but for different reason. The lens used to cost $700 in Japan while costing $1200 in US. So, overpriced by $500 is a fair statement.Now it costs...

Your posted photo (or account settings) don't allow to see reasonably large image. The photo is too small to judge sharpness. Even if you posted full resolution photo, GH2 can't show sharpness that...

Not sure what you read. With exception of photozone.de tests measured on 12MP sensor with strong AA filter, every other test and my experience tells that all good primes degrade in sharpness after...
