And do you like those image samples?

UPDATE: The image from DSLRmagazine has been removed. Maybe because this were image samples taken with a preproduction camera.

DSLRmagazine posted the following image comparison between the new Olympus E-5 and the older [shoplink 15032]Olympus E-3[/shoplink].

Any comments?

Canon 50mm f/0.95 M-mount
If you care about your money you will not spend more than $2.000 for the [shoplink 14972 ebay]Canon 50mm f/0.95 M-mount lens[/shoplink] manual focusing lens! Nevertheless there is a flickr group (with 576 members!) that has a nice picture collection. The name of the group is “Canon 50mm f/0.95 “Dream Lens”. You can find some image taken with MicroFourThirds cameras (like here for example with the E-PL1).
Now it’s time for a little bit of camera porn: See the lens attached on the Panasonic GH1 (Fredmiranda) and on the Olympus E-P1 (DChome).
You can get the lens [shoplink 14972 ebay]on eBay (click here to check out current auctions)[/shoplink]

Canon 50mm f/1.2 FD-mount
Canon FD mount lenses are generally high-quality and also cheap lenses. So don’t mind to use the [shoplink 14988 ebay]Canon 50mm f/1.2 FD-mount[/shoplink] on your MicroFourThirds camera! Some image samples are available here on dpreview forum or flickr.
And now again some cameraporn: The lens on the GF1 (Flickr), on the E-P1 (Rangefinderforum)
You can get the lens [shoplink 14988 ebay]on eBay (click here to check out current auctions)[/shoplink]

Feel free to comment this post to add share your experience and pictures!

Amin Sabet from Serious Compacts posted the second part of the mirrorless camera comparison. He tested the noise characteristics f all current cameras. Let me know if you agree with his final conclusions…

Leonard Goh from CNET Asia compared the new Panasonic LX5 with the “older” LX3. The comparison is interesting because the new Panasonic sensor improvements may will be also visible with the new MicroFourThirds sensor. Leonard said that dynamic range and resolution have been improved. Not bad at all!
