Fuji wants to open a completely new market with the Fujifilm’s FinePix Real 3D camera. It will be launched in September and cost around $600. I am curious to see the first images made with that camera. Do you want to know how you have to print the images made with that camera? Read more at engadget!

Alberto from the e-p1.net forum tried out the 35mm, 50mm and 90mm Leica lenses on the E-P1. Take a look at the results!

In case you missed it, the Samsung NX camera that is supposed to be the first Panasonic GH1 concurrent will probably be announced in November.

That’s all for now!

If you don’t need the video features of the GH1 be smart and buy the G1. It costs you far less and the image quality is more or less the same as the GH1. Amazon.com is selling the blue Panasonic G1 with 14-45 mm lens and the red Panasonic G1 with 14-45 mm lens with heavy discount.

If you are looking for small sized lenses a good option is the classic FourThirds Olympus 25mm f/2.8 Pancake Lens. You have to use the adapter ring!
The Panasonic 45-200mm f/4.0-5.6 is the only MicroFourThirds cheap tele zoom lens available to date. It is a good lens for his price!

I found ONE single Fotodiox Olympus OM – OM 4/3 Adapter for my old E-420.

Having some M-mount lenses I seeked Novoflex Adapters:

Amazon Germany has finally the full range of Novoflex Adapter. In Amazon US I only found the Novoflex Adapter to Mount Leica M Lenses on a Micro Four Thirds. And amazon UK has only two Novoflex adapters.

Olympus E-P1 RAW vs JPG test

Share

PlatonAristoteles

Since old greeks time professionist debates about Raw vs Jpg shooting. Platon on the left clearly signs you “high-quality” matters. Aristoteles answers him “stay on earth, do you think we have always time to process images which rarely gets visible better compared to the in camera generated jpg’s?

May you can get a litle closer to the answer you seek by reading the RAW vs JPG test. It is a short but very interesting test that I found inside the E-P1 forum. Hope it helps all the present and future owners to make the choice.
