Forum Search for "olympus e 30"

Quote:Whether you agree with it or not there was/is a perceived,and measurable,difference to the cameras the Olympuses were competing against in these two areas.And in fact on an Olympus forum I sometimes visit it seems to be accepted that care needs to be taken with the highlights and that the above ISO400 performance 'could be better'I wonder if that's the same site I would visit once in a ...

EEP! thats good mine cost me £949! but its a business expense so not so bad lol

I have been doing a lot of reading and watching videos about the Pen E-PL2. I always seem to do this after I've committed myself to purchase equipment. Am I deranged?....................... No, don't answer that!! :D Everything I have seen looks very favourable indeed. My interpretation of the reviews etc is that it is, probably, the best ILC camera out there at present if you look at ...

No you're right, it isn't as dark as that. ;) The problem is, I think, I am shooting with a lens with a max aperture of f/3.5 whereas your S95 has a max aperture of f/1.7 which is vastly better for video in dark conditions. But stick a fast lens on my Pen and I would expect a truer result.

USE FILM again !! My boy was GIVEN an Olympus OM2n with 50mm f1.8 and 70-150mm Zuiko lenses and gets very good results -- no 'SOFTWARE' problems at all -- I develop his B&W and most of his C41 or take it to a High Street Pharmacy which has an account with SIGFOTO laboratory who do an excellent job of processing and printing C41.

What no Phase 1 digital back Matt how could you.:D Compare on price, yes fair point. Talking about reviewers getting accused of bias, I read another site (where they bicker on every nuance of spec and review) their D3S review. They would appear to have complaints from Nikon, Canon etc users each complaining about a bias for/against Nikon in the review. The bit that impressed me the mo...

Congratulations............look forward to seeing the first photo's.

£150 is not really a big enough gap is it I don`t think so, may as well get the E3 and pick a freebie. offers

If you were in the market for a DSLR at the K-7 level and had no company bias or loyalty, which other models would you be looking at with the K-7? The D90, the equivalent Sony, the Canon 500D, 450D.

Hope you have not lost too much in selling that 5D. Well I've had it best part of 3 years, and I got a price for it with which I am very happy, so it's all good! ;) I'm certainly not ruling out getting a 5D3 in due course but it will depend, heavily, on whether more (commissioned) video work comes my way. I don't really think I could present the Pen's video as pro quality. Although rath...

James I wish you well with your sale. I think you'll get a decent price now you have some feedback. I reiterate to anyone interested in James' 5D II that I bought the 24-105 L lens from him and it was delivered immediately and in mint condition.

And you in turn have made unsubstantiated assertions that the EP3 system is inherently better (by unsubstantiated I mean reference to articles that support it). Call it quits, eh? Crikey, this is a prickly forum. The fact that the mirror-less cameras determine focus at the sensor is "inherently better" because that's where the final image is being recorded - pretty uncontroversial...

Why do you think this is at an inflated price, the X100 sold for about £1000 and the latest Fuji for even more. The market will decide if the price is inflated or not. Let's see what it's selling for in 6 months time. The X100 doesn't sell for £1000 now.

The D60 is the same as the D40/40X in that it will only autofocus with sonic drive motor lenses. That said, most of the sigma range now have HSM motors in Nikon fit (as do one or two Tamrons) and can be used on these cameras. Ian

But, there's always the window to look through as a re-assuring backup. As a passenger I wouldn't like the idea of 'no window backup'. But we are losing 'focus' again and the post is becoming 'coloured' again !! Then, maybe that's reasons to have an OVF ?
