After looking at the orange colour of the petals in this image I decided´to look back at the images posted in the last few days. I have come to the conclusion that the colour acuracy of the OM-D is pretty much spot on. It's much better than my Panasonic cameras (except the DMC-L1) in this respect. I always have to adjust those which costs quite a bit of time with certain images. Gets me a little frustrated from time to time too.

The leaf texture turned out well in this image. The stammen are also pretty sharp. Again, not a lot to say about the image, just putting the OM-D through it's paces with this wondeful lens.

I really do like the way the OM-D sensor captures the images. It's pretty flat and it gives me more room to play with when developing the raw file.

I made a little sudy here of some flowers at the side of a lake. I couldn't get that close to them so I used my mZD 14-150 lens that seemed to line on my E-PL1. This gave me another chance to test this lens on the OM-D. There's not a lot to say about these images except that I like them and I think the lens did pretty well.

The more I use this camera the more I like it. It sort of creeps up on you. At the beginning I wasn't very impressed with the file quality, until that is, I learned how to process them. It does take a little more time and effort but it is worth it. Especially working with the highlights in LR4.1; highlight recovery is very impressive indeed.

When I go out with my camera on these outings I generally don't go out looking for specific images. On holiday trips it's different. I know where I'm going and I know what I'm looking for. I just walk around and photograph what takes my fancy. Like today's post.

Now this image is very sharp, even at 100% viewing. Again at 150mm. One thing again with the Olympus OM-D, I generally have to dial in negative Exposure Compensation as not to blow out the highlights. This isn't any different from all my other Olympus cameras. With Panasonic however, I have the opposite, I always dial in positive Exposure Compensation otherwise the image will be dark and flat looking.

As you may have noticed I've concentrated on the long end of this lens. I know that images images from the 40 - 100 range of the lens are very good. Just wanted to see the longer end to try and convince others of the sharpness that I get from it. Either I must have a very good copy or other have received a lemon of a lens. Shame really.

Very inquisitive birds as you may already know. This one watched me intently for what must have been 10 minutes. Can't fault the lens again either. Some must be thinking that I applied a lot of sharpening to these image, which is not the case. All I do is a little sharpening to the image after downsizing for the web, which is normal. I have however processed the raw file more aggresively in LR4. The files do require a little more work.
