A few recent E-P1 pics

[sfaust]

I thought I would add these for anyone interested in the E-P1/E-P2 and lenses. Most are just pictures trying to get a feel for the new camera and lenses. I've posted the EXIF data for reference. I apologize if I've posted them previously, but though they belong in the m4/3 forum as well.

Yawn!

Great photos, I just love my Oly E-p1. Did you take these as raw? I find myself shooting jpegs most of the time, they are great right out of the camera + live histogram helps as well.

Thanks all...

I do shoot raw all the time, and in fact haven't even looked at a JPEG out of the E-P1 yet. I think I will try that today since I've heard the JPEGs right out of the E-P1 are really nice. Perhaps if I find a suitable image, I'll post both the raw and JPEG versions to see how the camera sees the image, and how it looks after I process it. I'll not look at the JPEG until after I process the raw.

Great avatar Robert!

Another two from the E-P1, both with the Panasonic 20mm 1.7 lens.

Nice photos Stephen. My favorite is the dog. Is that a schnauzer?

 

[sfaust]

Thanks David, and yes she is a standard size schnauzer. We got her a few months ago. I love the temperament of the standards, very family oriented, smart, loyal, bonds well with the family, etc.

 

[david.elliott]

Awesome. Our neighbors had a miniature schnauzer. They are great dogs for sure.

Hope you will share some even more photos in future.

I'm really liking this camera so far. Very capable while remaining small and easy to carry. These were all taken during the same trip into Boston to see my daughter for dinner.

1/50th at f1.8, handheld, ISO, ISO 320, 20mm panny 1.7 lens.

Olympus E-P1, ISO 2000, 1/100th handheld, IS1, f5.6, Lightroom 3. I punched up the colors, added some black in the shadows (was low contrast due to display case glass reflection), and a hint of chroma nose reduction. While it doesn't look it, there is still full detail in the washed out melon balls and whipped cream on the top. Layering it in Photoshop would bring that out easily. Not shabby for ISO 2000 handheld in a grab and run situation.

Kit lens at full zoom, handheld.
