M.Zuiko Digital ED 90mm F3.5 Macro IS PRO tele-macro lens, Micro Four Thirds water-resistant lens, compatible with Olympus, OM SYSTEM and Panasonic MFT cameras, capable of ultra-macro magnification

Product Information

Draw a 4*5 grid on an A4 sheet of paper and then the same 4*5 grid on an A3 sheet of paper. Both sheets of paper (the sensors) now have the same number of pixels despite one being bigger than the other. Now put a pattern (the same image) on each, just as you stated in your example. Then try and extract more detail from the smaller sheet by cropping and let me know how you get on. Be sure to have a fully charged battery in the camera. Without sufficient power, the firmware update may fail or will not start. sbszine - True. Your already starting out with a smaller sensor and large crop factor. The tighter you get, the less pixels you will use and you will have a light penalty (without flash) forcing you to also have a shutter speed penalty. I also find that the 50mm FOV on MFT is ideal for me for both portraits and landscapes, so it’s really a nice lens to have on my camera all the time. Finally, this new lens is more than twice as heavy as the Laowa. Lisa Cuchara here with my first impression of the OM SYSTEM M.Zuiko Digital ED 90mm f/3.5 Macro IS PRO Lens – the first few things that popped into my head were:

The lenstip test actually shows a minor difference. Peak resolution without the TC is 76 lpmm, so 38 lpmm after a 2x crop vs 43 lpmm achieved with the 2x TC. But that is on a 16MP body and ignores the 1.4x. OM SYSTEM broke through the “conventional belief” that autofocus and high magnification were not compatible.”I paired the OM 90mm macro lens with the OM System OM-1 camera and excitedly headed to the garden in search of tiny subjects of interest, like fungi and insects. It’s a camera and lens pairing that I’ve had a decent length of time with and got a good feel for what’s possible, and the pleasure hasn’t worn off. Lenstip is doing a great job, but sometimes even their results can be compromised by different factors. Perhaps the biggest threat to sharpness is the natural movement of the subject, which is bound to happen with outdoors subjects. Even a millimetre shift in a breeze can be a threat to perfect sharpness at this close proximity, so you might find you want to try shooting at faster shutter speeds and upping the ISO as a compromise. His error is in using different equivalent focal lengths. By that he intentionally biases the result towards M43 to look better than it actually does in a proper unbiased comparison. There it fails due to the tiny photocells.

Yes let’s keep it factual. I only stated benefits that are related to the focal length and how this would be advantageous in certain approaches to shooting. It’s not a personal view, it’s understanding the practical applications for this lens. C-AF Center Priority can be turned on/off for AF Target modes other than Single, Small, and 121-point. from Gaussian formula, the half angle of entrance cone is solely dependent on magnification and aperture, so basically, for a given magnification, it is the aperture that matters to increase resolving power, ie, reduce diffraction, that also means, for a given magnification and aperture, it does not matter what focal length the lens has, in turn again, that means if both has same nominal aperture, set at same magnification, both will have same resolving power.Sharpness is well-maintained across the frame, being very good even at the corners or edges of the frame. There’s also a good degree of sharpness demonstrated throughout the aperture range. We get the sharpest results when you stop down a little, with f/5.6 and f/8 seeming to yield the best quality. That said, even the widest aperture of f/3.5 and the narrowest of f/22 put in an excellent performance. Improved Art Filter selection allows for easier and more intuitive with effect visible in Live View Me looking at all those great macro shots from FF and APS-C I do not see any problemm shooting macro with shorter FL” OPPO's mid-range smartphone aims to provide a sophisticated camera system at an attractive price. Andy Westlake sees how it measures up. Now, super high resolution is seldom a demand for macro images. So, a smaller sensor and smaller lens might be an advantage. But, it is a choice. If you think bigger cameras is not a problem, then you might get better images with a larger camera.
