wel aps-c sensors are wider while the lenses are still round. what that does telling you ? well on aps-c you got a lot more corner distrortions than you will ever have in 4/3 format. what that says again ? well it says that you will have to do a lot of cropping anyway so on an 15mp aps-c you’ll end up using 10 mp. Plus to tell you something, the Zuiko Olympus glass can only be matched by leica. The others are a match for one another, ZD is other league.
I totally agree with you… I’m a graphic designer and we have photography classes too… nowadays all the compact digital cameras have 10MP, that doesn’t mean that the quality of the picture is very good. The quality and the size of the pixel is the thing that makes the difference
Oh please! 4/3 sensor is small and cannot take any more pixels. Not that I advocate more pixels but yes it can. Canon T2i and 7D have 5.4MP per squared centimeter, E620 is just 5.1MP. Regular P&S have loaded up to 10X with even smaller sensors.
Yes it can take more pixels but no they should not do it.
If you like Nikon/Pentax/Canon stay with your format. Olympus/Zuiko glass is some of the best in the industry.
yes it takes xD
They dont wand 20 Mpix…
Who the hell need this?
now its the fight arount ISO…
slow loading time
I don’t like the 4:3…. I like the traditional 2:3
Well, that’s why I am not upgrading my Olympus E-500. There’s no point. Why would I need more pixels on the same sensor size? I can’t even print larger image than 13×19″ on my printer, and 8 megapixels is plently for that size. I never saw any pixelation. I see noise, for sure, but never seen any pixelation. In fact, with a 4 megapizel Nikon D2H you can make fantastic letter size prints. It’s clear, that since the megapixel is an exponentially growing number, it makes great for marketting
There is no space for more pixels because of difraction physical limits.. 4/3 – 10Mpix sensor is limited at F6.3.. more pixels = worse score.
Compact P&S are not serious photographic machines, those are just some special sort of toys. 1/2.5 sensors from P&S are limited by difraction even with lens wide open + those zoom lenses are quite bad. They can put 20mpix at 1/2.5 sensor, but real captured resolution would be same as on 5-6Mpix sensor of same size. Only more image points, no more details.
The 4/3 sensor is still ten times larger than a compact camera sensor, so there’s space for more pixels. However, I think that the best olympus camera was the E-1 with 5 megapixels, because it had the largest pixels of all Olympus cameras. In addition, it also had a CCD, which is less noisy then MOS. But general public thinks that the more pixels the better, so they have increase number of pixels so that they stay in mainstream business. I’d take E-1 or Panasonic LC-1 or Leica Digilux 2
The real pain is getting a decent telephoto on “big” crops. You can get 600mm at F4-F5.6 with a light and cheap zuiko.
because they have small 4/3 mount.. there is no way how to put bigger sensor there. Now they stated, that 12Mpix is the edge…
few years before they boasted, that 20Mpix on this sensor is not a problem… heh
7-14/4 (14-28eq) is only one wide lens + 8mm fisheye (16eq) and look how much that zoom costs – more than E30!.. and then check DA10-17(15-25,5eq) or sig 10-20(15-30eq) or tamron 10-24(15-36), DA12-24.. 2-3 times cheaper
you have to multiply 2xcrop on oly lenses, but aps-c nik/pentax has 1.5x
Another big pain on olympus are fast lenses.. only sigma 30/1.4 and 50/1.4 are usable.. they need to build something like 25/1.4 or 20/1.4 to have at least usable DOF on normal range.
Yes, but it’s still a DSLR which means it’s BIG compared to p&s.
7-14mm zuiko, 9-18mm zuiko, 11-22mm. Wider than what pentax offers and surely better. Olympus has the best lenses of ANY DSLR system.
oe es una camara vacan
E620
lol…the next one is gonna be a nano Dslr, and the only live view is your eyes..and the shutter is going too be planted in your thumb and index finger..the memory is stored in your brian with WiMax, Wifi, and Bluetooth connections from the brain too any device…no need for the mega pixel count. you see is what you get lol..
im stuck between the two as well….
woah, sorry kid i thought u said d90, btw p90 is shit
DUDE ARE YOU KIDDING? LMAO small ugly peice of shit dslr, a d90 is a great feel and its so comforatable in your hand
and nikkon p90 is a bad choyce or a good one compare with this camera????
Should I get the E-620 or Xsi??
I have both the 510 and 520 and I LOVE them. I would buy two of the 620s the day it came out if they had just kept the battery the same. Since they changed it, and I have 7 batteries for the 510/520 (same batter), I’ll wait until I break one again before upgrading. I don’t know why companies don’t keep the batteries the same longer – it would help sell the new cameras. But don’t forget the lens. Get the 12-60 for truly stunning pictures. The two tiny lenses that came with 510/520 were crappy.
they’re making small SLRs because it’s a great option if you don’t want to carry a big camera, especially with the 25mm pancake. Except for not having HD video the 620 seems like the best easy-travelling, everyday camera: IS, live view, SLR sized sensor, manual focus and interchangeable lens, all good things.
