Finally someone who can properly read (and understand) english. If someone's interested about my point of view, Ken's post just reflects it perfectly. Thanks sir.

So you are presuming out of your immense, utter wisdom, that I did my comparisons between the two lenses there at daytime on the location with the dog, even though I didn't specify when, how and...

It is with sadness, boredom, and a hint of disgust, that I am seeing again a thread turning into an endless measurebation discussion where everyone has to split hairs in four. I compared the lenses...

I absolutely, totally, wholeheartedly agree.

Rohith's thoughts pretty much match mine (except the part I striked trough) I do use a hood on the 20 as well, but as far as real world pictures are concerned I just like the way the 25 renders...

This was shot wide open with a leicasonic 25mm 1.4 (which I recently acquired) I did use a 3 stop ND filter because it was daytime and there was a lot of light. This is just one of many lovely...

Had the Om-d for about a year and I really, really love the camera... But the eyepiece... I've almost lost it countless times (found it inside my bag, found it on the ground after backtracking my...

Sorry to rain on your parade, but sample variations actually does exist I have to be honest and say that out of dozens of lenses I've owned in many (20+ years) of photography I've only found 4...

You know, us Italians (I'm Italian, from Venice) really are sticklers for kitchen and food.Nice pictures by the way :)

IQ is average? Sir I think you have a defective copy of the lens. Mine is razor sharp in the center straight from wide open and sharp corner to corner from F2.0 onwards... Actually it's sharper...

I have successfully wet-cleaned my OM-D sensor too, I had a sticky spot, maybe pollen, that couldn't be removed by the supersonic shaker or a giottos rocket blower.I used swabs and eclipse. Mind...

Couldn't agree more. Been there, done that, and my thoughts are exactly the same as yours.

My 180mm 2.8 (mine is from 1986, so the very first AF model) is tack sharp straight from F/2.8A friend of mine has another 180mm 2.8 from 1997 I believe, and it's just as sharp as mine.I'd rank...

a) almost neverb) no, while central sharpness is pretty decent, peripheral sharpness is cellphone-camera like.c) save your money for something else, like a used panasonic 14mm F/2.5

DAMNED FOCUS PEAKINGI mean, is it really so hard to implement?Really?Come on, Olympus!

I just redid the test, but with some changes:Camera A is the OM-DCamera B is the D700This time I exposed the OM-D 1/3 of a stop more than the D700 to better equalize exposures.I shot RAW on the...

Well,  I did the same, Louis. i now use my FF dslr's only for weddings, sports, and such. The om-d has become my main camera for travel, reportage, and such. I love having a lighter bag, a small...

well, I think that what we can see from my test is as follows:-  the FF camera has clearly better detail retention at high iso- the FF camera holds colour consistency better as iso climbs higher...

Ding! We have a winner: camera A is the OM-D and camera B is a Nikon D700

Yes, one of the cameras is a OM-D
