I don’t think he has a sound studio environment. He is obviously shooting in daylight so you know there is a rather large window to bounce sound back.

Very interesting …
Very interesting lens and body combination. I could see this as being a good alternative to a super zoom. You’d sure be able to shoot in dimmer conditions than with a super zoom.

No, it’s what’s called a prime lens. It only has one focal length.

This video was made over 6 months ago, so any price would be out of date by now. Besides, youtube is an international community, so which currencies would you have me qoute? You can find the latest prices in several currencies by visiting my review at cameralabs . com – there’s a link to the right of the video window.

Actually i listened to it again, and now I know what disturbed me… it’s the echo. The sound echoes too much. Does the room have too many hard walls?
I recall seeing Youtube videos where there were tips on how to get better acoustics, didn’t favorite it though

Thaks for your comments. I plan to use a lapel mic in the future, and we have cutaway shots on our camera reviews!

Pfft.. f2.8 is not …
Pfft.. f2.8 is not interesting at all, primes are all about big aperture
But interesting lens of course to have in a bag that normally gets way too heavy with full lens kit.
About your reviews, for some reason I feel you fill the frame too much. Maybe zoom out for a midshot of your body?
Using an external mic would do wonders for the sound. Also, why not cut in shots of you holding equipment, from another angle… more interesting that way. Of course the photos help a lot too!
Keep it up!

Hi Jon, we do have some pretty good weather down here, although it has been stormy recently! Wow, that would be some change going from the E-3 with two awesome lenses to the E-420 with some lighter ones – depends how portable you want your kit to be I guess… We can discuss this in more detail on the cameralabs forums if you like…

You are getting really good at this.
Is it always sunny there? For a while, I thought you were shooting poster, the weather is always the same.
I’m actually rethinking my dslr strategy, replacing the E-3/12-60/7-14 with E-420/9-18/25… And then getting a Nikon D10 (or whatever it is going to be called) for the serious stuff…

The registration …
The registration distance is very very short on the Olympus DSLRs, therefore mounting it on a Canon would mean losing infinity focus.
The upshot would be that you’d get a very high quality macro lens.
