Thanks for the kind words Arne.
I get the best results from the latest Bibble. Colors and sharpness are better than what I can get from all the others RAW converters I've tried.I can get petty close to the same using otther converters with more PP. The color cast issue with some lenses is a problem. The above picture with taken with the Zuiko 35/2.8 had a color cast issue, but I've learned how to remove it for the most part. Selecting the correct WB at capture/conversion time helps , and the rest can be removed in PP using the Hue/Saturation and sometimes a few other select tools when needed. For some reason most manual lenses really throws off the AWB of the SLR/c. It's odd, but most of the modern lenses don't have the WB or color cast issue. The Sigma 12-24, Tamron 14mm, Tokina 17mm, Tamron 28-75, Tokina 28-70, canon 50/1.8, ... none of those had any issue at all. Seems to have something to do with the lens design or MC's.
The best choice is to select lenses that don't have a problem. I've found all the Zuiko f/2 have little or no issue. Some Zuiko's like he 28/2, 50/1.2, 100/2, 35-80/2.8 and even the lowly 75-150/4 zoom have no issue and are excellent all around performers. For bold colors nothing I've tried compares to the Zuiko 35-80/2.8, but any decent lens will bring out the great colors of the SLR/c. Over at DPReview, I've read the Zuiko 24 and 35mm shift lenses work fine with the SLR/c, but have never tried either (although hope to someday). I have found the SLR/c is a picky little beast when it comes to lenses, but the results are worth it for me.
