Wonderful photo.  Really shows what the E-PL5 can do, the perfect hiking accessory!

If you've been using a GF1 for 2 years without buying any additional lenses I'm not sure why you see a need to upgrade, especially to a $1000 price range body.  Putting that aside... E-M5 w/14-42mm...

I don't think I saw anyone post this earlier, a side-by-side photo of the G6 and R9 that captures what I think are some pretty clear...

Scroll down through the Google photos and you'll find a number of images with the EVF at the same angle as in the OP.  It may be about the same size as the VF2 on the outside dimensions, but the...

Hold it up to your ear, you can even hear the waves crashing.

Yes, I'll give you that $379seems like a bargain given how long Olympus stubbornly held onto inflated prices for this now long-in-the-tooth body. But I find with Olympus that it really is now...

Hi Frank, that seems like a pretty severe test and, no, I haven't done that with mine.  It still seems funny that the lens hood, which is quite light, would make a difference here, but clearly for...

The hood from my 70-300mm goes on easily with the 75-300 and I haven't had any lens creep issues.  I leave it on whenever using it because it does block sunlight from striking the lens while also...

Was this tongue in cheek?

I think it could sell in XE-1 numbers if it has weathersealing and 5-axis IBIS for a body-only price of $899, $999 adding in a kit lens and $1199 adding in an improved EVF.  Then it becomes...

Way to logical for Olympus :-) .  They don't seem to do many meaningful firmware upgrades, leaving you to buy the next model.

The NEX 6 sells for $899 with a 2.3M dot OLED viewfinder, peaking AF display, 3" tilt LCD and 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 retractable power zoom lens.   I'm not a Sony fan (own an E-M5), but a compelling...

Shows how subjective design is, no harm intended.

Camerasize.com comparison of similar sized IL cameras, along with the GH3 thrown in for good measure: http://j.mp/10BcRfJ The G6 clearly is not a large camera, but I struggle to find its "lump of...

Clearly an evolutionary improvement over the G5, but I'm surprised like others that Panny didn't keep the multi-aspect feature of the GH2 sensor, one of its primary advantages.  But then, with the...

+1 Siegfried.  It's late now, but I've bookmarked it to read at leisure. And great thread for this new 75-300 MkII user, can't wait to try the different techniques out this weekend.

I'm holding out for the G7, should be announced in another month or so...

That sums up a lot of it. Yes, a tripod will improve the IQ of your images by eliminating camera shake/movement, allowing for photos as sharp as your lens will allow, but the steadier ones can be...

Just posted hand-held images: http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3475804 I actually had along a very lightweight monopod which I had high hopes for, a Manfrotto MMC3-02, which combined with my...

I've been simply enjoying this lens; all hand held, minor sharpening, taken this morning at Stony Brook Sanctuary in eastern Massachusetts.  Hope you enjoy them!
