    I'd like a little C&C on this photo's "Look"

    I think it looks great, but would like to see a less compressed version.

    Time for a new camera? (Olympus e520)

    Is there any hope of olympus fixing this issue? Olympus OMD EM1 long exposure noise vs EM5 | Cameralabs Seems like too much to spend for a camera with a serious long exposure flaw, My reason for upgrading is partially because long exposures are poor now....

    Frustrated. Photographing Moon

    Those are some nice huge pics, Another cheat of mine is to learn some post processing software like lightroom. It's very easy to use, again I'm not pro I just move sliders around until I achieve the effect I want. (couldn't do as much with the small one since I don't have the RAW and the...

    Lunar Eclipse composite

    I love it. I always wanted to do something like this but I spend way to much time trying to get just single good shot.

    Frustrated. Photographing Moon

    I kept trying the above thinking I should get a decent shot, instead I had to use low iso of 100, low aperture (F4), and a 1 second exposure. My camera makes way to much noise above ISO 100 to get a good shot. I guess I'm doing exactly the opposite of what was described above. Thank goodness...

    Time for a new camera? (Olympus e520)

    The only problem is price. I guess I could just get the body though. Not sure if the body alone comes with the adapter either. The deal with the lens is quite good but out of my budget. Are all the now Olympus lenses made in china now? :(

    Time for a new camera? (Olympus e520)

    This one cannot use the older lenses very well since it has no PDAF focusing. At least form what I read so far, this appears to be hard to find information on review sites. PDAF = phase-detection autofocus "Four Thirds DSLR cameras designed by Olympus and Panasonic initially used exclusively...

    Time for a new camera? (Olympus e520)

    Yea I can use the existing lenses but I believe they will be manual focus only and people do not recommend them. In other words I may as well sell them all except maybe the fisheye sine its pretty unique... The m4/3 system is unique in itself and is the direction olympus headed leaving me...

    End Times.

    Thanks guys, The lens was the older non-SWD 50-200. It was 1/2 as much used as the SWD version and I only use it every now and then (Plus the e520 does not support the higher speeds of the high speed lenses anyways). If you have suggestions on an upgrade path please let me know in this thread...

    Time for a new camera? (Olympus e520)

    I currently have and e520 and while it takes good pictures I'm pretty behind the times. I own 4 mid-grade olympus lenses though so I'm not sure what to do (mid grade is still very expensive for olympu IMO). I have been looking at picking up an E5 but it looks like Olympus isn't really...

    End Times.

    Just joined the forum because i'm shopping for a new camera. But here's a picture of the blood moon I pulled off with my Olympus E520 despite it's poor sensor and age. Yes, some post processing in lightroom made some undetectable stars pop out. From my understanding the olympus is one of the...
