Lenses used in my assessment

I forgot to add this Adam, primary lens is the 60mm macro (of course), the others, in order of use: 12-50 kit lens, 17mm f1.8, old style mk2 40-150 and a manual focus canon fd 400mm f4

As to RAW, I can't say that I have seen much difference so won't make a judgement call on that. For most of my present work I have been shooting RAW + LSF jpg but mainly processing jpg for speed.

What I have produced using RAW has been for my gallery sales and a few studio images printed off for competition work and the quality is at least as good as anything I got with the EM-1

I think the lugs are a little further forward than on the EM-1 but as I modified my holding technique to avoid them on the EM-1 I don't find either body giving me a problem that some have described

As you will have gathered - I'm very happy with this new body

So much to learn, so little time left to do it!
