This is really an old camera by todays standards but I think it takes great images especially with the 14-45 kit lens and the 14-140 which was designed for video, but offers a good focal lenth range (28-280 35mm equivelent). And who said you can't get good bokeh with m4/3 equipment. AF nailed this one no question.

01/11/12  Panasonic G11809
DMC-G1 Focal Length: 140 mm Aperture: f/9.0 Exposure Time: 10/2000 sec ISO: 500 01/10/12  Panasonic GF-1Talk about low light. What actually drew me to this was the shadow on the wall. I thought it would be great for a B&W conversion. This was taken handheld. It was actually a number of images taken here as I wanted to be sure I got a good one. There were quite a few with signs of camera shake.
Converted to B&W in Photoshop. 1147
DMC-GF1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/1.7 Exposure Time: 10/600 sec ISO: 100 01/09/12  Panasonic GF-1Same combination. Taken in Spain during the one day of rain we've had there while on holiday. Well it was a quick shower and that was it. 1465
DMC-GF1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/5.6 Exposure Time: 10/1250 sec ISO: 100 01/08/12  Panasonic GF-1Again with the 20 f1.7. Really great for low light work. 1224
DMC-GF1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/1.7 Exposure Time: 10/300 sec ISO: 400 01/07/12  Panasonic GF-1I'm still quite impressed with this camera and lens. The 20 f1.7 is still one of the best micro four thirds lenses out there. This was taken from 30,000' from a plane heading for Spain. 1194
DMC-GF1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/6.3 Exposure Time: 10/13000 sec ISO: 100 01/06/12  Olympus ColoursAnother one taken during the same walk. This kit lens isn't bad at all I think though many criticise it. I'm not the pixel-peeper kind of person so maybe I don't really see what they're criticising. I either like an image or I don't. These wer taken with the E-P2 and the 14-42 kit lens. 1363
E-P2 Focal Length: 14 mm Aperture: f/8.0 Exposure Time: 1/1000 sec ISO: 320 01/05/12  Olympus ColoursI really like Olympus colours. many say Olympus produced the best colours of all. This was taken last winter during a little walk. It was cold but still with some blue sky. The kind of conditions I like to out in. 1330
E-P2 Focal Length: 14 mm Aperture: f/8.0 Exposure Time: 1/1000 sec ISO: 320 01/04/12  Sepia ToningI like playing around with B&W convertion and sometimes I actually apply some toning to the image. Some photographers can actually see in B&W but I don't belong to that group. Shame really because I really like B&W. I have to convert an image to see if it works or not and most of the time I delete the final image because I couldn't make up my mind if it worked or not.
This one I like though. 1091
DMC-GF1 Focal Length: 20 mm Aperture: f/8.0 Exposure Time: 10/8000 sec ISO: 100 12/29/11  Sony NEX-5NAnother one taken from the same afternoon with the same combination, the Nex-5N with the Canon 35 f2 mounted. Believe me, these clouds were moving at some speed. I think I'll see if I can get a better copy of this lens. It's just OK in my opinion. I've heard other people praise this one as being very sharp. Bad luck again, oh well. 1539
NEX-5N Focal Length: unknown Aperture: f/1.0 Exposure Time: 1/200 sec ISO: 100 • Sony • Canon • 35 f2 • NEX-5N • manual focus
12/28/11  Sony Nex-5NWe are experiencing Autumn weather in December this year. The weather is really playing up these days. Just can't plan ahead and the weather people don't seem to be having a good time with their prognosis either. I was just looking out the window as the light was fading and I saw these clouds coming over moving quite fast. I just ran for the nearest camera and it happened to have the Canon FDn 35 f2 on it.
Since I took this picture I've tested the lens more thoroughly and have come to the conclusion that there are sharper lenses out there (or I picked up a bad copy). Stop it down to around f8 and it's sharp, but that isn't what I bought an F2 lens for. I want to use it at f2, but if it isn't sharp at that aperture then what's the point right?
BTW, this was taken at aroung f5.6. 2265
