Em5 ii

[boboshot]

If its is RRP then might as well get it from next week IT Show and take the extra freebies

what freebies are they giving?

Got my set yesterday. But today brought back for 1 to 1 exchange as the camera cannot focus properly.

may i know how much did you pay for it?

so far anyone come across any third party grip yet? the original one is just too expensive..

It's expensive because it as electronics and a headphone port.

Does it?

Would like to ask does the EM5 II crop the image that much in video shooting? :dunno:

actually i am refering to its original non-electronic metal grip ecg2.. which is expensive (cost more than the hld8)..

hopefully some third party ones will be made available soon..

wondering if my camera is a bit faulty or is it normal for starup to seem a bit laggy?

 

[kandinsky]

Does it?

That's a pretty large crop. Maybe mexican88 can help to comment on this

doesn't hurt to take a couple of steps back

Thereabouts

Haha, yeah, wherever possible. ;p

Thereabouts

Thanks for the confirmation :thumbsup:

Looks like may be around 1.2-3x crop? 45mm approx 55-60mm.

still learning the controls of the camera

took a couple of shots using scene mode.. pics look kinda muddy, though I did limit the iso to 800, not too sure if this applies to the scene modes as well

Looks like the effect of aggressive 'noise reduction'

you're absolutely right.. a little bit of grain or noise couldn't hurt

what happened was the camera took about 3-4 shots and overlay them on top of another (presumably), which could also partly contribute to this result

Does the Movie "Crop" diff when use toggle between the IBIS Mode 1 & Mode 2 ?

haven't tried, though i'd think mode 2 would crop less since it's just the image stabiliser at work without any software help

BTW there's a new firmware for EM-5 MII, improvements in Hi Res shot performance.

I'm still awaiting for RAW camera support in LR (apparently LR6 will be released next week??)

Yeap, haven't gotten to update it yet but I realized the delayed shutter for the high res shot and a super steady tripod is a must for high res shots.
