Anything slower than that, get a tripod! Of course it is true that a smaller format allows designing smaller components than for a larger format — provided all other parameters of the comparison are the same! Plus this mft combo costs significantly less overall. I need to verify this but that would have to be a separate article if I can manage to get my hands on both lenses again. Close in at 200mm gives a good macro effect. I have the external grip fitted and found the combination to work perfectly well both handling as balance wise. The software does struggle in an extreme scenario with high frequency detail and cannot successfully get rid of all traces of purple fringing. The benefits of image stabilization open up a world of possibilities.

Of course I will lose some light wide open, but hope that this setup will still be adequate. The only thing I really miss is quality wide angle. Only registered users can write reviews. That averaged the unsharpnes out so the images showed the same sharpness across the frame, but not as sharp as the right side was before. With the sample I still have I tried to insert a small piece of baking paper under the lens mount on the lens. Whereas the right side of the frame was and is pinsharp and detailed. How often have certain lenses been criticised because of their size and weight? I do a lot of available light photography and so have mostly primes.

Review: The Olympus Zuiko Digital ZD 12

Olympus 12-200

I am not saying that you should not bring a tripod, nothing can truly replace a sturdy, reliable tripod to get that critically sharp image. However, it is also larger, heavier and more expensive. Some may argue the convenience of practically having two lenses in one is worth the sacrifice in compactness. Clearly with the latter, we get the extra stop and more reach, especially with the tele extender, but how does it compare for sharpness etc. I still have my eye on the 12-100 F4 for an all around travel lens. That is very quickly at least as uncomfortable, besides, it inevitably leads to missing shots due to the necessity to change lenses.

I even tested under harsh and high contrast situations for flare and chromatic aberration control. It likely has some long-end softness, as do the other very long all-in-one lens in all brands. I did then, but this time in Austria and the dealer at lest agreed to have a look at it. Not really a fair comparison. I had the hood attached at all times during my shooting with the 12-200mm lens so I did remove it just to see if the lens gets more susceptible to flare and ghosting, but the results remain unchanged. I use a peak design clip to clip it to my backpack and have done many hikes and city walks during these 3 weeks. I would love to have an overall 12 to 200 f2.

I acknowledge this may be my personal preference and for others, the convenience of having a versatile zoom range outweighs ultimate image quality. February 2019 — Setting new standards among zoom lenses for mirrorless cameras, the M. Anyone has the same struggle as myself? If you paid attention to the bird shots above, you will also notice that they were all under heavy shade and light was not ideal. I'm guessing that this will be another lens that will not allow focus stacking. Let me begin my first ever comment on any of the many photography-related sites I have been reading daily for many years now by underlining that I respect everything posted for what it is, be it a personal opinion, a fact, a concealed advertisement, a. Your 14-150 is a typical superzoom as is the 12-200 maybe worse on the long end.

The 75-300 is going to be way better at 200 than the 12-200. It seems to be a good companion for a future Em5. I understand this claim if you are talking about your one-hand macro approach but usually, the left hand takes the major part of the weight and the right hand just the operates the control buttons and wheels. However I though a little bit inside my head if there is a chance to get rid off both used m. Olympus has managed to manufacture a reasonably compact lens at a comfortable weight of 455g, of course the tradeoff is variable aperture of F3. I am mostly a prime rather than zoom user, but I got the 12-40 and 40-150 earlier, and am considering a swap for the 12-100 less to carry when I do want of go zooming.

As long as you do not shoot constantly in dim light, I see no reason the 12-200mm cannot deliver satisfactory results. It was beyond impossible to repair it. Without the firmware update, the lens will have stabilization and focusing issues on older bodies. Just keep what you have and if you feel the need to spend money look elsewhere.

However, with the 12-200mm, which offers a 35mm equivalent of 24-400mm, you can easily go from ultra wide to long telephoto with a single lens, reducing the need to swap lenses. Nothing less than e24mm seems up to standard, from what I have seen, and the 12-100 f4 has some issues at the wider end as I have experienced so far not sure if it is field curvature, but there is definitely some weirdness going on with focal plane at the edges.

I imagine this might be possible at 12mm but is unrealistic at longer focal lengths? On Robins blog-site, this was not a problem at all. Can you comment on this? A fabulous piece of glass! Being equivalent to a 24-400mm—Olympus's largest zoom range—this lens is truly an all-in-one. It seems that in the back of their minds most of the bloggers have the equation — a small format must result in small equipment. This filter is also compatible with other lenses of a 72mm filter diameter. This article is not a review of the 12-200mm lens but simply me sharing my experience with it as a photographer.
