Olympus lens department sucks

Go to last post
i saw the first one at full size , i thought it was some joke , this shot is oof , out of focus , 5d is much better then this...

Quality is, to my eye, very similar.

None of my more recent shots (with any of the cameras) have any
sharpening - I don't find the pro series Olys or the L series
Canons need it.

All WILL have noise though - inevitable consequence of heavy PP.
Easy enough to get rid of, but it doesn't bother me...

here is full size image from 350d and 400mm f5.6 lens , you can see per pixel sharpness , oly never bring me such details , 5d is even better.

a different interest in phtography to me - what do you think it is,
a suvellience shot? You think I want to identify the girls and
arrest them? :-)

It is a nice, soothing shot of England at tea time. If it had been
sharper, I'd have softened it...

Detail and sharpness looks entirely normal to me, sorry :-)

Perhaps I'm Not That Sort Of Person.

But, again, excellent work.

This kind of thing is, I find, hard to do on the Olys, because the blasted C-AF serioulsy needs an update.

Sharpness is fine, once you actually have a lock!

there is a continuum of advantages and disadvantages from MF to FT, and where you choose to sit on that line is a matter of personal preference.

You chhose not to go MF because youfine 35mm a good compromise for YOU. I find FT a good comepromsie for ME - if at all possible, I don't wish to be clambering a rocky path or wading through rivers with huge 35mmFF lenses on my back. I can't see any quality advantage other than low noise, which doesn't bother me, and I don't like having shallow DoF FORCED on me (I like to choose either way). Your mileage may, of course, vary.

That really IS a fine shot. However, if you are have a problem with oly noise at iso100, what about the artifacts along the edges in this image -they are visible at 100%? No problem for me but I am surprised they aren't for you.

thanks,
true , there is some but its jpeg , tiff is cleaner.

this is from mine PP its my foult , i was trying to show the details in this pic.

thats finr its you choise , but oly lenses isnt any smaller with telephoto lenses, look at 300mm f2.8 for example.

and for slower ones you have very cheap slow and light zoom in FF that are just like fast zoom on oly.

i am not sure you understand me , but thats fine.

one questin to you why f2.8 lens on oly is better than f4 lens on FF ?

What is that aura surrounding the wing fethers of the bird? Is that a result of shaprening? I see how the beautifully out of focus bokeh turns to a grainy mush as it approaches the feathers. Can someone tell me what causes that?

Ok. I simply found it a bit silly to criticize Louis Dobson's unsharpened pics for being oversharpened and then show a (very nice) picture with strong artifacts...
