I grabbed this one with my 135mm f2.5 Tamron (legacy lens + adapter)

No shutter shock, but there are problems with CA wide open and the very shallow dof making focusing a little more difficult on a peg moving in the wind.



135mm f2.5 @ f4, 1/160s

I know this thread is a few months old but mine seems to exhibit the same thing between 1/80 and 1/160 sec.

This is supposed to be the part that's in focus

Ok... I am not a shutter shock believer and I have express this many times... But I got the big decision to believe and be redeemed... to save myself from the sin... So tell me what to do to experience shutter shock... give me your data... ONLY FOR OMD EM5 please... users that have seen shutter shock blur in their pictures using an OMD EM5... GIVE ME DATA... instructions... speed, focal length, lens aperture ISO WB whatever...

PLEASE help me to save myself... I will post full exif jpeg results...

Here is a blog post someone wrote about it:

http://cameraergonomics.blogspot.com/2012/09/micro-43-shutter-shock-revisited-omd-em.html
Here's what he suggests for the EM-5:

Notes for Olympus EM5 users: To set Antishock, go to the Custom [gears] Menu E [Exp/ISO] > Scroll down to the last item > Antishock >Select a time > Press OK to confirm > exit Menus. This takes 26 button presses. Now press OK to bring up the Super Control Panel (SCP) > Find the Drive Mode sub panel. The standard panel has options for single, continuous, timer etc. Once Antishock is set the options are all duplicated so there is one set with, the other set without, a little diamond shape to the left of the drive mode icon. The little diamond shape indicates Antishock is active. This is how you switch Antishock on and off. Leave it set to "on" permanently in Custom Menu E.Note about Mysets Make sure you have all settings including Antishock exactly as you want them before registering a Myset.

But, does it work?

So you could try to reproduce his test.

And here's a forum post by a guy who says he get shutter shock using the 75mm lens between 1/100 and 1/200 sec:

Sigma 150-500mm (Sony A-mount) + MFT Adapter + tripod + cable release. You see the shutter shock each and every time.

Compare against the magnified focus preview or compare against the image taken with a Sony camera with EFC enabled. Disable EFC and you get shutter shock with the sony camera also.

Or use a spotting scope with more than 500mm and you see it even more.

And yes, with my other (shorter) lenses and handheld I see no shutter shock.
