The photos look great and perspective is similar to what the human eyes see.......Though I'm not sure if I'm gonna use this a lot.

I usually pick 9mm fish eye for landscape/scenic shots, 40-150mm for wildlife or candid human shots (I'm shy), 14-42mm for everything else or when it's getting dark.

correct me if I'm wrong, if I turn the 14-42mm lens to 25mm, despite being slower, would the result be similar?

VF4 is really waste of money IMO cos u chances are u won't be able to use it on future bodies. Somemore the rumored new PEN will have evf built in.

New body wise.. 16mp sensors already at the end of its development. I reckon the next model change will go 20mp di.

I agree with both arms and legs up!
no need VF4, expensive and no future.....

what kind of post process you did to the photos?

I just import the jpg to my iPad and apply filter with VSCOcam app.
Brightness also adjusted in the app.

If some are really dull and high contrast then will use LR5.

From what i read, it says worldwide coverage. Hmm, i'll have to check with them when live chat is open or something. But for less than USD10, if i'm mistaken... not too sakit hati  cry.gif

Here is the statement, to my understanding, they are referring to US resident.

I got MK320 for my Fuji x100s and Sony A7II.
So far so good and get the job done.

I also got i40 for my Sony A7II. If compare MK320 and i40, i40 is much more powerful. Maybe 4 AA Batt in i40 vs 2 AA Batt in MK320.

With the price tag of MK320 and the small size flash light, I have no complaint at all.

So I hope my comparison applicable to M43 as well. smile.gif
