Nice critique on the OM-D EM-5…..have the same camera now (coming from a GF1 as early micro 4/3 adopter). I personally have to colorgrade all the photo’s I take using a grey reference point or by hand. Mostly the magenta content is a bit to high to my liking (running firmware version 1.2 by the way). And yes warm is turned of as well.

Guess you know your way around color correcting (impressive stuff here), so any of the same experiences or is it me (or my systems) but my monitors are callibrated.

And a tip…..pick up a copy of the Panasonic 14-45 as well. About the same quality as the 12-35 at a fraction of the cost (okay you have to stop down more but I need DOF). Check these links and make up your own mind.

Greets, Ed.

I’m glad to get more confirmation that I made a good choice with the Olympus EM5. I’m still getting to know my collection of four lenses. The Panasonic 45-200 has worked well for my recent bird photos (more to appear here in the blog on Monday). The Olympus 60mm macro is excellent and I can’t wait to use it on bugs and mushrooms in the spring.

Thanks for the compliments on our products. It feels good to hear that they are helping people.

I have had both Canon and Nikon in the past but they are so heavy they can’t be carried everywhere.

I have Alien Skin Image Doctor2, Bokeh2, and Blow-up3 to use with Photoshop 6. Most of my
friends send me their SD cards and I improve on their pictures with your software and send
back to them to be printed. I do love your software.

I have been mirrorless for a few years now and love the EM5/OMD

Now I have to have a go with AlienSkin :)
