Olympus E-620
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 ...

Adapter for Olympus e-620
I would go with John, sell the lens. I`ve got a feeling that Canon lenses even with an adaptor will not be suitable anyway, I`ve never come across a 4/3 adapter to fit a canon lens. Plenty of other adapters here

Oly E-620 and wireless flash.
You'll have to buy a Oly flash gun that supports wireless flash if you want to use the camera body to control it. Otherwise you will have to go with ebay flash trigger and go manual control. There is no other way as far as I know.

I have a Metz 45 CL-4 Digital whicH i want to use with my new Olympus E-620 camera. I have a 2 aprt SCA adaptor which sits on my hot shoe and plugs into the Metx. The top unit is an SCA 3000C m1 and the bottom Unit is an SCA 3202 m2. There is now an SCA 3202 M7. What is the difference and will my current SCA 3202 m2 be ok to use? If anyone can help I would really appreciate it as I cannot se...

Upgrade - Olympus E410
Except with Nikon and Canon. I have a Canon camera because of a combination of DPP, service in this area, and quality that I have realised only in the past year. But one always keeps one's options open.;)

Go into a shop and see what feels comfortable in your hands. Then completely disregard this oft-trotted out piece of 'advice' because it isn't the best way to decide on a camera. It'll feel differently after an hour, it'll feel different when actually shooting from different positions and switching from portrait to landscape and it'll feel different when attaching different lenses. So don't ...

Why I have to leave Olympus
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.

Which system
I think the general rule of thumb is that you can hand hold provided the shutter speed is equal or less than 1/(35mm equiv lens focal length). So for a 300mm lens on a 1.5 crop camera would be OK at 1/450 sec or faster. IS gains you between 2 and 4 stops (depending on who you believe) so, if it's 4 stops, you can hand hold a 300mm at about 1/100 sec. So IS allows you to use, say, ISO800 rather ...

That is because they have struck a balance between resolution, speed (in terms of frame rate) and low noise at high ISO. It all depends where your requirements lie.
Forum: Canon Cameras
Fluke If its any consolation, my local camera shop told me only the other day that Oly cameras and lenses are starting to be 'collectable' and second hand 620'S, E-3's, 510's for example don't stay in the shop window for more than a week before they are snapped up by Olympus users for top money. Like you, I hope Olympus survive and go on to greater things. Olympus is an iconic marque that...

Need advice on camera choices
I would also like to add Rebbeca that as you want to photograph wildlife the Olympus can use the Olympus Zuiko 70-300 which in converted terms is a massive 140-600 and costs mere £300. Pentax, Nikon and Canon (OK I'll include Sony) users can only dream of such focal lengths at that price!
