Olympus EP3 at DxOMark Lab

Olympus E-P3 Price and Stock Status
We have tested the PEN EP3, the latest 4/3 camera by Olympus and the first results are now available. The Olympus PEN EP3 apart from changes on the exterior, it is pretty much the same sensor as the Olympus PEN EP2 and Olympus E5.

Sony NEX-C3 Price and Stock Status
Olympus E-P3 Price and Stock Status
Nevertheless its comparison with the Sony NEX C3 is interesting as they are both on the EVIL camera (Electronic Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens) category.

At first sight this comparison is a rather unfair one, as the Olympus sensor is smaller, however as we said earlier they are both EVIL cameras.

In this camera category some photography enthusiasts and professionals look for every-day interchangeable lens cameras that can be taken everywhere, without the bulk and weight of DSLRs.

In spite of its good results we still encountered some old problems:

  • In high ISO (Lowlight ISO score of 536 which is a bit low in comparison with the results of the latest APS-C sensors (the score is 1083 for the Sony NEX C3 on Lowlight ISO, for example).
  • The Olympus PEN EP3 has still the same behavior in low ISO for the dynamic range and the score at the minimum ISO is not increasing as expected (+1 EV in comparison with the next IS0).

50mm lens - Who Wins? DxO Mark Review

DxOMark review: Which 50mm lens for my camera?

Wednesday December 22 2010
(This review has been prepared with Focus Numérique, a French photo news website)

Owning a 50mm lens is probably a must for any photographer. These primes are ideal for many good reasons. Mounted on a full-frame body, they provide a neutral field of view. Not a wide-angle, and not yet a telephoto lens, it is said to be close to human vision. On wide sensors, a 50mm lens can be the perfect companion for many different activities, including reportage, portraits, or even landscapes.

Mounted on an APS-C sensor, they become a short 75mm telephoto that is highly suitable for portraits.

In addition to their optical qualities, 50mm lenses usually use a simple optical formula. They are thus small, light, fast, and usually affordable, although at least one sells for more than 1,000 USD.
Many qualities, yes, but many models, too, and choosing the right one isn’t always easy. That’s why we have produced this short analysis.
