Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:

Fast and correct focus in difficult conditions with Pancake 25mm.
Very tough noise even at ISO400 if the NR filter is OFF.
At NR filter switched on the noise at ISO800 is acceptable but details are smoothed.
ISO500 and ISO640 would be good choise in low light but them are absent in menu.

Non comfortable to hold long. The belt holder is placed extremely inconvinient. Because of it the forefinger hurts after an hour.

Problems with sharpness and focusing with old kit-lenses like ZD14-45/3.5-5.6

All the rest is typically Olympus - good colours, good interface, good made.
