  1. those photogs are veterans with 30+ years experience, all have best nikon, canon, pentax, etc lenses. been there. ml raw on 5d3 can do 10 bit uhd raw. ml raw at 10 bit and above especially at 14 bit, is vert different from typical mirrorless raw or 10 bit preres h.265. been there. 14 bit raw itself is unparalleled even now.
  2. i doubt r50 has better video quality than 5d3 ml raw.
  3. I remember a story I learned from a famous photo forum. A group of veteran photogs prepare a set of chosen photos for Leica photo exhibition. Only photos taken from Leica lenses are allowed. Some smarties think they can trick Leica Reps by using best lenses from other brands. They intentionally put these best photos of theirs into the chosen set, yet all are sieved out by Leica Reps. They then believe that Leica taste exists.
  4. I always suspect that the current crop of high dr sensors tuned for high dr but sacrificed other aspects. Using OM1 as an example, it is very nice in 60p photo mode, especially the dr is impressive. Yet, when I use some vintage lens on 5d3 with ml raw, something just looks different, scientifically not explainable, yet it is there. Aesthetically, I really like this subtlety.
  5. I have one e500. Small, coupled with oly 43 25 f2.8. Good for travel. The lens has some distortion. The camera is not good at night. Other than that, it is good to use. Color is good at iso 100. At iso 400, it starts to smear. I brought it to DC once as my sole traveling gig. I like it except limited use at night.
  6. This lens breathing is what I experienced, at F8 or F5.6, even at F4. I will try MF. Thanks a lot for the input.
  7. i used +1. will try 0 for moving.
  8. 120p photo is still the best in terms of sharpness. colorwise, although good enough, neither art filter 1 nor hlg 10 bit is as good as the 14 bit ml raw or f3.
  9. The Oly 25mm f1.8 is good at mid range, not as good as zf at infinity.
  10. At 25mm the IBIS is very stable, but jerky when panning or tilting. The color can be very good. The dr is still good when pushing the sat and the contrast. Again, two thumbs up to the OM1. A hidden gem.
  11. Just did OM1 Oly 25mm F1.8. I am very impressed by the dr. The sharpness is good enough. I think the generic focal reducer caused the lacking of sharpness in previous shots. The Oly 25mm F1.8 sometimes pulses in continuous AF in video mode.
  12. From your screen shots, I feel that OM1 has better dr than GH7. I use art filter 1, which is a high sat high contr filter. On EM5, the dr is too narrow, although I like the color and the contrast, I kind of don't not like the whole pictures. On OM1, it is very usable, I get good contrast, good color, and relative good dr, at least the dr does not distract my eyes.
  13. i like high contrast high saturation style too. for landscape, i push as much as i can. really pushing the sensor and the dsp to their limits.
  14. Except top models, like Alexa, Sony Venice, Red Monstro, not sure how much better the low end cinema cameras are better than top of the line full frame or aps c hybrids.
