i m jealous of those primes u have.  BtW, nice video reviews!

very very nice Tom.... wouldn't i love to have the 200!!!

Kirk Tuck shoots lots of theater stuff using both m4/3 & Nikon FF.  He seems to feel they both have their place, and that the diff in technical IQ is overblown

how #@*shallow do u need?! &just a matter of time before "computational" photography masters ultra-shallow DoF

thanks Daniel - extra nice coming from someone I respect

hopefully they will cover both bets! Olympus is falling behind... even disregarding the new Pany venture

I gotta say that I like your assortment of gear for the safari

no doubts Rick... except re flexibility!

I am convinced that time is on the side of smaller sensors.  Just look at the amazing advances in cell phone cameras!  [4me we have already reached 'sufficiency'] I do believe that larger sensors ...

couldn't bring my self to read very far in your loooong post, but LOVE this: "Look upon the works of Samsung, ye mighty, and despair."

I haven't owned the PL25f14.  While it is hard to compare lenses w/ diff focal length, i would rate Sigma 30f1.4C sharper than the 20, 45f1.8, Oly 60 macro, &maybe even the Sigma 60.  Also over ...

u won't be disappointed w/ G85!  If u can't be happy w/ kit 12-60, suggest the PL version.  12-40 is superb, but not for travel vs the above .   45-150 is outstanding for size and performance ...

Have owned 10 sigma lenses, half in this format.  They've earned my loyalty!  30f1.4C is the sharpest of my 15 m4/3 lenses

45-150.  Right sized, price, quality

nope... wish i'd saved my $.  Should prob sell it.

careful... while they excel in many other areas (ergo, lens quality/consitency, quality assurance of bodies, etc.) Canon is notorious for trailing the field in their sensor dynamic range.  They ...
