Cafe Racer

Unfortunately that's not a good example of great dynamic range - the highlights are grey and without detail. My experience of DXO (some time ago) was that highlight recovery was inferior to ACR. ...

What are you currently shooting with and what does it lack for your photography?

I think the pro lens needs to be used at maximum aperture to really appreciate what it offers optically.

Just came across another comparison on Japanese site Asobinet. https://asobinet.com/review-comparison-45pro-lumix425/ Whilst the little Panasonic doesn't exhibit the character of the Pro lens at ...

Thanks for that info. I wasn't aware of that. I just checked photos of my 1st copy of the 17mm f1.8 lens and it was made in China. I sold it because I was underwhelmed with the image quality . Now ...

Interesting. I consider my 17mm f1.8 not equal to my 25mm f1.8.

For those who may be interested, Japanese site Asobinet has done a comparison of the two Olympus 17mm lenses. I know Mirrorlesscomparison has done one but I like to compare reviews. The Asobinet ...

That's how I would interpret it. I just couldn't think of another way to describe 'open stardard'. The latest comment from Panasonic when asked why Olympus is not on board with this - 'W e do not ...

Quote from Photography Blog - 'Panasonic also told use that more companies may follow and join the L-mount Alliance, if they apply and meet the standards.' https://www.photographyblog.com/news/pana ...

Chris Nicolls on the E-M1 mkII C-AF “And when we compare the Olympus (E-M1ii) auto-focusing against the Panasonic G85, you know speaking of different brands, we’re finding again very similar, I ...

Some videographers have been using the Sigma 18-35mm f1.8 with a speedbooster (that combo is big) on the GH5 and I guess this is Panasonic's answer. The 'clickless' aperture ring on the lens ...

Smaller than I expected considering it's f1.7 constant aperture. I wasn't expecting it to be the size of f2.8 zooms - but yes, it's not small by M43 standards. Then again, f1.7 zoom is not exactly ...

I was expecting it to be massive considering the f1.7 constant aperture. It certainly doesn't look unwieldy.

It looks quite small too.

Holy sh...!!! is likely to be my response when they announce the price, I better start saving now. Well done Panasonic.

The GX9 seems to avoid the ISO 200 magenta cast issue to some extent, although it does appear with a 3ev push and then oddly disappears again with a 4ev push. Whether this is a conscious effort or ...

DPReview's comparison tools may help to give you a visual idea. Here's the links: https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/image-comparison/fullscreen?attr144_0=panasonic_dcg9&attr144_1=nikon_d500&attr144_ ...

I think that Max's frustration is that he can't 'set it and forget it' and just enjoy the shooting experience. With the absence of a warning to indicate that the shutter speed is being lowered he ...

Have you used the minimum shutter speed feature on the GX9? My conversation was with forum member Max Polonski who stated that because the camera overrides the setting when the ISO limit is ...

I've used this to simply illustrate a point about the usefulness of having an exposure warning. So I'll ask a question. Lets say you're using aperture priority mode and you're ISO limit is set to ...
