p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Comparison of Two Macro Lenses: Coprinopsis lagopus


I have two lenses which I use a great deal, for daily macro shoots:

Olympus 4/3 50mm f2 macro ED.

This has a maximum magnification of 1:2 (FF), giving a FOV 35mm wide on m4/3.
It has full-aperture focusing and AF.

Oshiro 2:1 60mm f2.8 LD UNC macro

This has a maximum magnification of 2:1 (FF), giving a FOV ca 8mm wide on m4/3.
The lens is fully manual.

In this exercise both were set to the 35mm FOV and at f11 and 1/125 second (Olympus) or 1/160 (Oshiro)* at ISO 400. Bright daylight was the illumination.
Thin, passing clouds varied the intensity and WB.

I used my Olympus EM-1, hand-held. All images were shot as RAW files and have had identical processing.

I have included some crosseye stereos.

The first image is from the Olympus and the second is from the Oshiro. The other Oshiro image is the last stereo. All other images are from the Olympus.

I'm not a pixel peeper Harold, but I do see a slight difference in contrast with the Oly having a bit more ~ Ron

Thanks, Ron.

All contributions welcome.

Any slight differences as to what is in focus is probably largely down to my judgement..

There will be a slight difference in perspective between the Oly 50mm and the Oshiro 60mm.

Thanks. Until this last few days, I have had very few comments as to who can or cannot view them.

Often, they tell us so much more about the subject. Macro stereos do more than our eyes can.

Having seen a more recent specimen, I think this is Coprinopsis lagopus not Coprinellus micaceus and I have edited the topic title accordingly.
