QUOTE(FrozenRay @ Jul 8 2010, 11:15 AM) Just got my EPL1 last week after my long consideration to upgrade from P&S. if u got money, straight go for 20mm f/1.7....  Really impress by EPL1 performance so far. I do love its compact size, light weight and image quality. Below is my first shot with EPL1 in penang. [img]http://www.flickr.com/photos/kflim/4773106264/[img] Taking with standard kit lens. Now thinking to get either olympus 17mm F2.8 or panasonic 20mm F1.7 need you guys advise. By the way, linking the photo is not like that.. you need to right click on your image to get the URL with .jpg at the end.  This post has been edited by gogo2: Jul 8 2010, 11:22 AM |

QUOTE(sumtuckieeeee @ Jul 8 2010, 11:37 AM) one question, why does the GF1 loses it's AF function when it is attached with other lens what other lens?If m43 lens, no loses AF function... But for other lens like Olympus 43 lens, old lens etc, it is because AF algorithm/sensor only works with certain lens coating. If u put unsupported lens, the AF will not work correctly. It will AF wrongly. So, AF for other lens will automatically disabled for other lens. QUOTE(FrozenRay @ Jul 8 2010, 11:45 AM) Thank gogo2. go ahead, its on me...lolzIndeed, let me snap snap more photo to spam here. lol This post has been edited by gogo2: Jul 8 2010, 11:52 AM |

QUOTE(sumtuckieeeee @ Jul 8 2010, 12:09 PM) but for ep-2, it will not lose the AF function right? mmm. for 43 lens, still can AF. Some people say this reason why e-p2 af slower...because to remain backward compatibility |

QUOTE(davidmak @ Jul 9 2010, 09:29 AM) Actually all the PENs have upgraded their firmware in April 2010 and tests have shown their system is as good as Panasonic's. The reason why 43 lenses focuses slowly on these cameras is because the lenses are optimized for phase-shift detect AF. Some with motor and some with SWD. The PENs uses CDAF so they cannot tell which direction of focus the subject is in and will have to scan the entire range. some people say, Olympus firmware optimize for both 43 and m43 lens. That's why its slower. While Panasonic lens only optimizedfor m43.  QUOTE(davidmak @ Jul 9 2010, 09:29 AM) 2 choice for you bro! I have E-P1 Metz or Olympus flash. I have both. Both works quite well. The Olympus FL50R and the lower model support wireless-TTL (optical) if you have E-PL1. so cannot use wireless TTL  but I can use it with my E-520.... |

QUOTE(davidmak @ Jul 9 2010, 02:27 PM) But the lens is pretty slow. F4-5.6 hardly cut it. Good thing is the fast focusing system. Saw youtube video and the speed is fantastic. No more motor whining during video capturing and comparable speed with GF-1. I don't think we have fast lens for all purpose zoom lens... Even 43, fast zoom lens is > RM10k... if my memory serve me right.... |

QUOTE(joeong @ Jul 9 2010, 05:35 PM) wow thats an incredibly gay old man.... Its quite cheap right? RM50 right? Its just fun to go workshop whether its worth or not. You see a lot of sameare workshops good btw? i thought its always better to "explore" your own camera by taking 1000's of pics and learning from other peeps in forums. isit worth it paying for a workshop? does anyone have the olympus 14-150 lens yet? any reviews? isit good/sexy? user. Then you guys can exchange contact and have gathering... |

QUOTE(nutrinos @ Jul 9 2010, 11:18 PM) Strange...this is a micro 43rd forum but why are there so few Panasonic m43 discussion? Is there something about Panasonic m43 cameras that people seem not interested in this make like the GH1 G1 G2 G10 n GF1? Just curious thats all.... err... what give you that impression? we discuss GF1 also...The most popular camera in this thread is E-PL1 and GF1... Very less likely people get GH1, G1, G2 etc because it looks like dSLR and people might as well go for dSLR if it looks like dSLR.... Instead, GF1, E-PL1, E-P1/E-P2 looks very retro or look like compact camera... and slimmer because no built in EVF.. So that's it... in this thread... there's no differentiation between Olympus and Panasonic. We're one big family.... |

I also dunno..hahahahahahha... sorry ya... how's are you all M43 user? Does anyone hunting Exakta Lens to Micro 4/3 Adapter in Malaysia? Today I went to YL pudu even thought they don't know this type of adapter QUOTE(helo @ Jul 11 2010, 02:48 AM) can i compare nikon d5000 with olympus e-pl1 and panasonic g10 ? which one has better image quality? If image quality, maybe talk a bit about ISO:E-PL1 Up against the Nikon D5000, the Olympus E-PL1 is more evenly matched in terms of resolution (both are 12.3). Differences in aspect ratio account for the different size of image elements. The Nikon D5000 puts out a more photographically faithful image, but the Olympus E-PL1's output is again better for printing straight out of the camera. The E-PL1's shadow noise appears smoother, though, and the mosaic image is more crisp; but out of all of these cameras, the Nikon D5000 retains more detail in our red leaf fabric, besting the E-PL1. http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/EPL1/EPL1A.HTM |

QUOTE(Bliz @ Jul 11 2010, 10:02 AM) If u are strictly talking about image quality, of course SLR is better. I myself have D90 and EP2, but most of the time i will bring EP2 out for shooting(it's far lighter and more discreet, not to mention the great olympus colour yaya, that's true.... hahaha...can't deny that bro... ).. You have to ask yourself what do u want from a camera  |

QUOTE(jacklsw86 @ Jul 13 2010, 11:14 AM) For GF-1, you can adjust the size of the focus area, as well as the location of the focus area. Setting the focus area smaller would make the focus more accurate in this case, i suppose. this is why AF for GF-1 is good.... for Olympus, the AF box so big..
