The video on top has been taken by Andrew (EosHD) withe the SLR Magic anamorphic prototype. This prototype is still uncoated. The final version will have less crazy flares!

Dino: “I ended up writing a long term review of the Olympus 12-50 lens. With rumors and reviews coming out on the 12-40 and em-1, I wanted to give others perspective that you don’t need to spend a couple grand to take decent photos. If you feel inclined to share, I would greatly appreciate it: http://13thfloorphotography.blogspot.com/2013/09/ballin-on-budget-olympus-12-50mm-kit.html”
Brian: “you might like to include a new article I wrote a couple of days ago called “A Gripping Tale of Two OM-D E-M5 Grips”, which can be found at http://byrdphoto.com/blog_article.php?ID=278”
Heather: “I just wanted to share a blog post I came across this evening. It is written by Tracy of Ashfield Images Photography who won Damian McGillicuddy’s “Don’t Forget Your Toothbrush!” competition. She shares her experience at the Olympus launch of the E-M1, along with a few nice photos as well. I’m actually surprised this post didn’t make the rounds earlier! http://ashfieldimagesphotography.wordpress.com/2013/09/12/dont-forget-your-toothbrush/”
Anonymous: “The hotly contested expose to the right (ETTR) issue, noise, sensor size, pixel pitch, and where do all the tonal levels for the right side of the histogram go if ETTR is wrong, in one place. Scientific and sometimes a bit hard to follow unless you delve into the calculus, but backed up with photographic proof, unlike LL’s all text no proof assays. It also further answers the question why Olympus state higher ISO than what he sensor is actually using. http://theory.uchicago.edu/~ejm/pix/20d/tests/noise/noise-p3.html#bitdepth”
Atmtx: “I was also lucky enough to get a pre production OM-D E-M1 and the 12-40mm f2.8 lens to test for a week. I’ve done a couple of posts and photo essays about it in case your readers will be interested.

The review of the E-P5 was up today on DPreview
interesting field test from bestmirrorles with one killershot
Interestingly. In the ‘don’t forget your toothbrush’ shots. Just below the light writing exposures there are the colour change shots.
The top 2 shots (the door framed in plants and tiled floor). have an illusion effect. If one looks at them they seem as if the tiles change direction or the shot was taken from a completly different angle. I had to blink a few times then concentrate .
I just compared Raw output of the E-P5/GX7 with that of the OM-D em1 with the dpreview studio comparison tool. To my eyes the OM-D em1 Raw files look slightly more smudged and less detailed (especially red tons) in comparison to the E-P5 and GX7 at all isos – could be noise reduction in raw files, I don´t know. It seems that contrast is higher in the em1 and maybe that in addition to the lack of AA filter could give the impression of sharper images. But if I look at some fine detail (red yarn coin – reds look oversaturated or smudged) the other two cameras look more detailed.
Same with noise. Em1 has less fine (analog looking) grain and slightly more color noise. That really bothers me 🙁 Am I doing something wrong?
Ignore dpreview. The problem will go away.
I meant red yarn coil.
Thannks for all links and the video.
About video, please go to 0:50 sec and please watch the girls wwalking :)))
prepare to be blown away from sony FF!!
Oh yeah, can’t wait to see the price and total weight of kit. Also give them at least few years to get out some half decent lenses. Apsc nex still has poor selection.
If you don’t mind manual focus you can adapt a boatload of superb lenses
I already can, on a variety of systems.
Sorry, I care about AF a bit, but about auto-aperture a lot, and all those adapted lenses don’t offer that.
Why? Are they offering something other FF don’t?
Not saying they will be bad (I am sure they will be good) but I really doubt we will see all the pro’s dumping their DSLRs to get them. I also doubt people who use NEX, m43 and other mirrorless systems will want to pay the premium (I would be surprised if the body alone is less than $2200.00 USD).
Most people in here wont pay it anyway.
Great links. I am keeping a closer eye on the EM-5 replacement or maybe the “entry level” OM-D.
Admin, any world on those and the rumored 25/1.8 from Oly?
