Hi all,
I was looking through websites to see the image quality I will get when I move to M43 system. But I found some pictures are grainy. even if the iso is 200 which is the lowest.
Any idea if this is what M43 results? or some settings on the camera needs to be changed?
I hate to sound like a pedantic Luddite, but I'm making 24"x36" prints from my M43 cameras, exhibiting them, and have had NO objection to the image quality. Matter of fact, they are some of my most popular ever.
Many are stacked focus images, outside normal usage, but others are not. They aren't as grainless and finely detailed as the best I can get from my full frame Nikon, but in my personal universe, the final objective is the visual image, not what I use to get it.
I find that the OMD EM image stabilization allows long lens handheld photography under available light conditions I never would have even tried before.
BUT. Almost any camera is capable of far more than we ask it to do. The most critical bit of kit you have is your perception, your skill. That's why buying a Hasselblad or Leica never created in itself, a competent photographer.
These forums are mostly excellent resources, but it's the resource between your ears that you can develop and polish.
Apologies for pedagoguery, just trying to share over 50 years of thinking hard about all this.
Joe
