i'm just a casual photographer, but i am pretty picky about image quality.
i've been using an olympus e-510 for years, but i am trying to make the switch to my new lumix gf3.
i'm doing this because of the compactness of the gf3, and also my e-510 won't autofocus in dim light.
i've found that the gf3 will autofocus in much lower light than the e-510, and the autofocus is much faster than the e-520.
also the size and weight of the gf3 really makes me happy.
the problem is that i am finding that the e-510 takes better photos than the gf3. i did some comparison testing. outdoor landscapes. the gf3 pics looked very nice, until you put them right next to the same shot taken with the e-510. the e-510 pics showed way more detail and more realistic color. i was using the kit lens in both cameras, which is a 14-42 for both
is this just due to the olympus lens being superior to the lumix? is 4/3 for any reason just inherent superior to the m43 as far as image quality?
