Olympus vs Panasonic Color: Blind Test

Left, left, left, although the #1 is much harder for me to call. Mainly the blue petals that have less of a reddish overcast on the left, and the paler yellows, which seem a bit cleaner.
Is there a way to get the center box (where the photos and text display) to appear wider in one's browser? (off topic, but I ended up needed to scroll back and forth)

I agree it could be done better, but let's give it a try this way. Could be interesting!

Olympus colo(u)r wins the day
The E-P1 was on the left in all three cases. GF1 on the right.
9 votes for E-P1 versus 17 for GF1 in the first image.
18 votes for E-P1 vs 8 for GF1 in the second image.
19 votes for E-P1 vs 7 for GF1 in the third image.
Obviously this was uncontrolled, doesn't account for all JPEG settings, isn't color managed (most people's browsers disregard color profile info and most people's displays are uncalibrated, etc) and may be totally irrelevant depending on which RAW converter you choose, but it was a fun poll to take!
Personally, I tend to prefer Olympus color to Panasonic color, in general, but I would have picked the Panny in 2 out of 3 of these!

Brian, I don't know. I just used their Comparometer, which should have been done in a controlled way since that is the whole point of the Comparometer. I assume that they manually WB on the card for the outdoor shot (first), otherwise why include it?

Sorry, my office computer is locked down (I can't install software), and I had very little to work with! Most people are still using color profile naive browsers, so take this all with a grain of salt!

The focus/contrast looks completely different - probably threw the comparison.
Thanks for the fun poll Amin, I'll try to do something with the G1/E-P1 soon... comparing different jpeg styles in a natural setting.
Cheers

I decided LLL, then saw your post. Agree with your comments.

Not really significant. Only first had big difference and it was due to exposure (right was darker, richer colors).
As I have written many times, jpegs are just a maker's choice, I bet if you use two different models from same maker the differences would show up as well. The really important thing is that the color separation at RAW level is not handicapped, then you can do anything in conversion.
