This fact leads many astray because they believe that there is a system on the way out is. These are all signs to the digital photo system most future-proof and that could be one of the reasons for the Four Thirds Endscheidung. The E-system of Olympus under the umbrella term of Four Thirds format where several companies rumwerkeln, also is a system which has been designed from scratch ran for digital photography. The Micro Four Thirds is the Mirrorless variation thereof and at the same time a guarantee of sustainability, the continued existence and further development of this technology. So if the Four Thirds system and thus the E-5 considered a dead horse or the swan song of the system is simply absorbed by accustomed to his way of thinking and did not understand where to go with the photo technology.
The other reason for choosing Four Thirds and E-5 the excellent lenses which there are available. One can virtually blind access to the FT lenses and be sure that you get much more than a minimum number of optical quality. For a long time no new optics for FT has come out and is misunderstood as the death of the system. The largest selection is already (very likely) to specifically computed for digital and designed lenses offering a DSLR camera system. And their price rises in the Pro and Top Pro lenses instead of falling over time. (I know this because I when I bought my first E-420 watch the prices since 2008). It is this so-called "lens-Park" by Olympus Zuiko Digital (!) Lenses where poke a lot of work and investment is not as easy jettisoned. To me it is clear that always give to the now single E-5 camera will be supporting this Optical achievers. Even though they might have no mirror. You have these lenses make clear that if Aperture f: will be offered 2, then one may really operate without stopping down. She is not only there, so that you can mention on the label. I own some of them and know what I am talking about.
So I have tried to describe two reasons for the E-5 to here:
1. Future security, sustainability, continuity and advancement of technology on the one invested.
2. Excellent lenses
Of course there are more
And for the case itself? I only say that it is also a mistake with the E-3 to be confused (the vorgegangene housing model) alone because it does not look much different. The more can and I do not mean the number of pixels. Some lenses like the 50mm f2 Zuiko Digital 35mm Macro and even the Zuiko Digital, focus much more quickly than with the E-3. The sensor achieves a better level of detail, and the ISO setting can be a bit more lift than before with the other cases. (ISO 1600 still provides useful results). Video You can also record the way. The swiveling display back has a better resolution and allows judging the images much easier. The quality of the viewfinder of the camera can make the size, similar to the E-3, manual focusing allows as how it may be used in the analog days.
I give my full recommendation and stop here.
There are restrictions very well:
The continuous autofocus when the camera needs to be learned. He's not like you'd imagine. I myself used it very rarely but that is not just because the subjects I photograph but to the fact that I have the C-AF setting is not really practiced as a photographer. And if I do that then I'm not satisfied with the results. As far as I've noticed, it is with the other brands no better than some Nikon cameras are supposed to have as technically an advantage. But. while single autofocus so S-AF Camera (especially with SWD lenses) is extremely fast. The combination with the ZD 50-200mm SWD is an experience. Until recently, the combination of the E-3 and E-5 was the ZD 12-60mm SWD as the fastest autofocus at all. (In the meantime, he might already be overtaken by Olympus PEN cameras). Maybe have
I also so far do not care about learning the C-AF care.
Who repeatedly, for whatever reason, with ISO 3200 and 6400, or even want to photograph 12800, should not buy such a camera that should be clear. The advantages of the relatively smaller sensor with high ISO settings are transformed into noise. To take pictures in such gloomy lighting conditions you have to invest in this type of cameras to bright lenses. So you can compensate for this limitation by maintaining a high quality in the results. And that is possible only if one spends on the appropriate lenses money. Except for the 50mm Macro ZD which also a fully-capable applicable f: has 2 aperture and relatively cheaper than the others get to have all the other light Strong high quality lenses, as everywhere, at a price. Then you can with such lenses actually with f: 2 photograph also be in focus map and a depth of field of f: 4 compared to small format have.
But one should not forget that light, not the camera, is the main element in the art of photography. Who needs the high ISO numbers just to avoid this fact, which is never satisfied, no matter can be pushed up as high.
