Re: Olympus OM-D EM-5


Edgardo - the OMD video is smooth, but to clarify, its not as smooth as the Nex/Smoothie combo. And with MF lenses, OMD IBIS is a no-go. IBIS and MF glass does work for stills, but I\'m not overly optimistic that Olympus will do much in regards to improving the video on the OMD. Like Fuji, it just doesn\'t seem to be a priority, more like its there because you\'ll get endlessly ridiculed if you choose to omit that functionality.

In the end - the OMD video is ok, but nothing special. I would only use it in a production if I had absolutely nothing else available. Even then I\'d convert it to a less compressed codec in hopes of extracting more information. I prefer the GH2 and Nex video, higher bitrates + more framerates = better video to edit and color correct. The difference is more apparent when you watch it on a 42\" TV as opposed to a ipad or computer monitor.
