When I first started this site about 16 months ago, I did a two-part piece examining a little of the history of digital photography and a trending towards mirrorless cameras. Since then, a lot has changed in a relatively short period of time, though the major players are still the same. More and more people…

Review: Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH3
After a quite long two-year wait, Panasonic has updated their flagship Micro 4/3 camera, and they’ve upgraded almost every single item on the camera.

Mirrorless Battle: OM-D vs GH3 vs X-E1

Macro Battle: Olympus 60mm f/2.8 vs Leica 45mm f/2.8
I did a little bit of testing last night with the new Olympus 60mm f/2.8 Macro and I compared it with the only other dedicated macro lens for Micro 4/3, the Panasonic Leica 45mm f/2.8 OIS. As far as construction goes, they are similarly built. Both have high-grade plastic bodies built to tight tolerances and…

A Huge Array of Micro 4/3 Announcements…
Wow. Photokina kicked off this week, and as one of the biggest (if not THE biggest) photography trade shows, it also sees a ton of announcements. I wanted to get to these earlier, but it’s been crazy busy around here. For Micro 4/3 users, Monday saw the announced release of no less than three new…

Review: Panasonic Lumix G Vario 12-35mm f/2.8 X OIS
Panasonic Goes Pro When the Panasonic Lumix 12-35mm f/2.8 X lens was first shown off as a ‘concept lens’ with its still yet to be announced 35-100mm brother (reviewed here) in August of last year, serious photographers who used the Micro 4/3 system started to lick their chops. It took a while, but the lens was…
