QUOTE(0300078 @ Aug 2 2012, 11:14 PM) sometimes EVF not important. That is why all P&S this day dont have it anymore. The screen of the LCD now is enough for you to frame the picture. EVF is needed as you start taking long range pictures, or probably macro, just so that you don't feel really weird taking picture. As far as potrait pictures, LCD is quite enough actually.This post has been edited by carbonytte: Aug 2 2012, 11:22 PM |

QUOTE(merajey @ Aug 5 2012, 07:01 PM) some says putting filter on the lens is just some placebo effect...some says its a must...any advice? Depends on filter price and build quality. ie, I find less use for my UV filter compared to CPL filter. But then again, at the end of the day, I still use the UV filter as my cheap protective layer , since I bought the vivitar one pretty cheap over amazon.com |

QUOTE(sadaniel @ Aug 12 2012, 03:39 PM) i sold my gx1 to buy omd, Heres my reaason. better sensor? You've got to be kidding me. Pana/Oly all uses same 4/3rd sensor. If you want better sensor, wait for EOS M. But alas, they don't have built in EVF (although I really hope they release one with EVF, but then that might affect their entry dSLR market so not sure if they'll do that).1) i need a camera that has a viewfinder. i have optional evf but i need to remove it if i want to use extternal flash. 2) i need a camera that has built in image stabiliser so i can use all the lenses for m43 (pana, olympus, voigtlander, etc) and still have IS. with gx1, ull only have it if u use ois lens. well thats about the major reasons. minor reason 1) design 2) battery holder accessory is awesome. 3) tiltable lcd display. iguess thats it. For major reason 1 and minor reason 3, you could actually go for Pana G or GH series. |

QUOTE(QiAnG @ Aug 12 2012, 11:59 PM) If I'm not mistaken. The sensor in OMD is actually made by Sony.. Heard of it, but Sony building four-thirds sensor, I can't really brain the rumour though. As long as it is still using Four Third format, I still think it would be a mod version of Panny rather than Sony's  |

QUOTE(highwind85 @ Aug 13 2012, 12:21 PM) Yahoo Jp published the interview with Olympus President...and it is consistent with Sony's prowess in making sensors... Oh. Cool. Will we get to see Sony putting up their MFT camera instead soon. Sony has been using APS sensor for mirrorless camera right? |

QUOTE(L.A.C @ Aug 24 2012, 06:02 PM) Hi all, I've been looking around for EVIL cameras and after days of research, I narrowed down my choices to Sony Nex-5N and Panasonic GX1. Honestly.. if I'm comparing image quality, I'd go Nex due to better sensor. However, I don't think "Nex"es has as many lenses as a MFT would have, hence the lenses price might be a bit diff (well I dunno how much is Nex lenses price anyway but I'm guessing it is a bit high since only Sony make those, while MFT are made by Oly/Pana/Sigma [I think some other made MFT lenses as well but not sure of the names]) .If you're going to change lenses from time to time, that should be in your consideration as well.First of all, after my research, the image quality of Sony Nex-5N seems unbeatable in its class and price range, especially in low-light condition. However I don't really like the way how Nex-5N looks, GX1 looks much cooler... So, (1) solely based on the image quality and nothing else, can you guys tell me does Nex5-N really win over GX1 hands down?? (2) Any other suggestions/opinions/critics are most welcome!! Thanks!

QUOTE(L.A.C @ Aug 24 2012, 07:05 PM) Well but for me, I'm new to photography so I'm not sure whether lenses are going to be a big factor in my considerations. Well, I've already got 3 lenses right now, kit (usually used with macro filters), pancake f1.7 for bokeh and 45-200mm for range shots. And I'm still saving money for macro adapter and 14-140mm lens. And I only started going deep into photog since the time I bought my G3 (Oct-Nov 2011 timeframe)Oh!!! How I wish that Nex-5N can look better than how it looks right now  This post has been edited by carbonytte: Aug 25 2012, 12:27 PM |

video wise, nothing beats GH series. I would still prefer GH2 coz it has the external mic. if you're really into video, i believe external mic always wins over built-in.
